Amount to Words
Turn a number into the Chinese financial capitals used on invoices and into English cheque words, for several currencies.
Chinese financial capitals
—
The characters 壹贰叁肆伍陆柒捌玖拾佰仟 are required on Chinese invoices and cheques because they cannot be altered into a larger number.
English cheque words
—
Cheque style: whole units in words, the remainder written as a fraction of 100.

How to convert an amount
- Type the figure exactly as it appears on the document, including the cents — separators and spaces are ignored.
- Pick the currency; the unit words change in both languages, and yen has no minor unit.
- Copy the Chinese capitals onto the 大写 line of an invoice, or the English line onto a cheque.
FAQ
圆 or 元 — which should I write?
Both are accepted on Chinese financial documents, and 圆 is the traditional form used on cheques and bank drafts because it is harder to alter. The tick box switches between them.
Why does 105 become 壹佰零伍圆整?
A single 零 marks the skipped tens place so the amount cannot be padded later, and 整 closes the line when there are no jiao or fen. When there is a fractional part the 整 is dropped — 1234.56 ends in 伍角陆分.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The conversion is pure arithmetic done in your browser; the figure never leaves the page.
