Hi Darren,

The way I have worked around this issue on my website (www.equalitea.co.uk)
is as follow:

The problem with taxes is that it has to round up the value (this is by law
in the UK and I think it should be the same in many countries) and this
exactly what the payment module is doing. This is however not the case of
the shop when you set that the price already contains the vat (this I'd the
case in Europe). The way I got around it is to make sure that you set the
price without vat with 4 digits (i don't know how many digits are enough
but this is what I'm doing) for the cents so that with the taxes it
slightly below the exact value I want. For instance (not sure I was clear
in what I said!), if I want a price to show as £4.99, you need to subtract
the equivalent of the vat (20% in the UK), and round it down at 4 digit for
the cents. In my case, the number will be 4.1583 . Therefore, I know that
with when the vat is added, it will be a prove very close to 4.99, without
going above it. (hope this is clearer now!)

I don't know if this I'd the way to do, that's why I didn't reply to my own
message. So if someone can clarify, this would be great. Otherwise, I hope
my answer will help.

Regards,
Olivier
