Currency and jurisdiction specified for international products
Why it matters
A bare $9.99 is ambiguous the moment a visitor from Canada, Australia, Singapore, or the UK lands on the pricing page — four different dollar currencies share the same symbol, and misreading a 35% exchange delta is a chargeback waiting to happen. Missing jurisdiction statements compound the problem: without naming the governing state and regulator, you cannot rely on choice-of-law clauses in disputes, and you violate disclosure expectations from the CFPB, FTC, and state financial regulators. The content-integrity taxon flags this as a trust-and-accuracy failure rather than a cosmetic one.
Severity rationale
Low because the ambiguity is usually resolved before purchase, but it still drives chargebacks and weakens choice-of-law defenses.
Remediation
Label every price with an ISO 4217 currency code and add a jurisdiction paragraph to your legal footer. Update app/pricing/page.tsx to append USD (or the correct code) next to each amount, and add a governing-law sentence to app/terms/page.tsx:
<span className="amount">$9.99</span>
<span className="currency">USD / month</span>
Then in terms: "This service is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware."
