    But usually you don’t put three 000 because that becomes a hint of thousand.

    Like 2.50 is 2€50 but 2.500 is 2500€

    Is there an ISO standard for this stuff?

      No, 2,50€ is 2€ and 50ct, 2.50€ is wrong in this system. 2,500€ is also wrong (for currency, where you only care for two digits after the comma), 2.500€ is 2500€

        what if you are displaying a live bill for a service billed monthly, like bandwidth, and are charged one pence/cent/(whatever eutopes hundredth is called) per gigabyte if you use a few megabytes the bill is less than a hundredth but still exists.

          Yes, that’s true, but more of an edge case. Something like gasoline is commonly priced in fractional cents, tho:
