HB 4476 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2026 Regular Session

To provide for currency rounding on monetary transactions

HB 4476, the "West Virginia Common Cents Act," requires merchants to round cash transaction totals to the nearest nickel. Specifically, totals ending in 1-2 or 6-7 cents round down, while those ending in 3-4 or 8-9 cents round up. This applies only to in-person cash payments; it excludes transactions under 4 cents and all electronic payments (credit/debit cards, digital transfers). The law ensures rounding does not affect tax calculations on the rounded amount.
