Customizing Databind Json serialization format of MonetaryAmount JSR354 / moneta

I'm trying to Json Serialize a POJO with MonetaryAmount field as a string, but the resulting output does not follow the prescribed shape format. 

// org.javamoney:moneta:1.1 
// com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-annotations:2.7.0
@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL)
@JsonPropertyOrder({
        "CBNOT_CHARGEBACK_AMOUNT"
})
public class TestMonetaryAmountJsonSerialization {
        @JsonProperty("CBNOT_CHARGEBACK_AMOUNT")
        @NotNull
        @JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING, pattern = "¤#,##0.00", locale = "en_US")
        private final MonetaryAmount chargebackAmount = Monetary.getDefaultAmountFactory().setCurrency("USD").setNumber(12.50).create();

        private static final ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();

        @Test
        public void testThis() throws JsonProcessingException{
            String json = mapper.writeValueAsString(this);
            System.out.println(json);
            Assert.assertEquals("{\"CBNOT_CHARGEBACK_AMOUNT\":\"¤12.50\"}",json);
        }

}

OUTPUT: {"CBNOT_CHARGEBACK_AMOUNT":{"currency":{"context":{"empty":false,"providerName":"java.util.Currency"},"defaultFractionDigits":2,"currencyCode":"USD","numericCode":840},"number":12.5,"factory":{"defaultMonetaryContext":{"precision":0,"fixedScale":false,"amountType":"org.javamoney.moneta.Money","maxScale":63,"empty":false,"providerName":null},"maxNumber":null,"minNumber":null,"amountType":"org.javamoney.moneta.Money","maximalMonetaryContext":{"precision":0,"fixedScale":false,"amountType":"org.javamoney.moneta.Money","maxScale":-1,"empty":false,"providerName":null}},"context":{"precision":0,"fixedScale":false,"amountType":"org.javamoney.moneta.Money","maxScale":63,"empty":false,"providerName":null},"numberStripped":12.5,"zero":false,"negative":false,"negativeOrZero":false,"positive":true,"positiveOrZero":true}}

Any ideas what am I doing wrong? I threw the kitchen sink in this code here, only for illustrative purposes and compact presentation.

JsonFormat is an annotation used in several (de)serializers defined by Jackson (e.g. DateTimeSerializerBase, NumberSerializers.Base and some other, full list here), it's not a general purpose mechanism turning any object into a string:

Unlike most other Jackson annotations, annotation does not have specific universal interpretation: instead, effect depends on datatype of property being annotated (or more specifically, deserializer and serializer being used).

Specifying it won't have any effect unless you create a custom serializer for MonetaryAmount or use one that makes use of this annotation (and also its pattern property), but if you create a custom serializer, chances are you won't need that level of flexibility as to specify different patterns for different fields and could just use a fixed MonetaryAmountFormat or build the necessary string from the MonetaryAmount object otherwise.

For example

@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL)
@JsonPropertyOrder({
        "CBNOT_CHARGEBACK_AMOUNT"
})
public class TestMonetaryAmountJsonSerialization {
    @JsonProperty("CBNOT_CHARGEBACK_AMOUNT")
    @NotNull
    private final MonetaryAmount chargebackAmount = Monetary.getDefaultAmountFactory().setCurrency("USD").setNumber(12.50).create();

    private static final ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
    static {
        SimpleModule monetaryModule = new SimpleModule();
        monetaryModule.addSerializer(MonetaryAmount.class, new MonetaryAmountSerializer());
        mapper.registerModule(monetaryModule);
    }

    @Test
    public void testThis() throws JsonProcessingException {
        String json = mapper.writeValueAsString(this);
        System.out.println(json);
        Assert.assertEquals("{\"CBNOT_CHARGEBACK_AMOUNT\":\"$12.50\"}", json);
    }

    public static class MonetaryAmountSerializer extends JsonSerializer<MonetaryAmount> {
        public void serialize(MonetaryAmount monetaryAmount,
                              JsonGenerator jsonGenerator,
                              SerializerProvider serializerProvider) throws IOException {
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
            MonetaryAmountDecimalFormatBuilder
                    .of("¤#,##0.00").withCurrencyUnit(monetaryAmount.getCurrency()).build()
                    .print(sb, monetaryAmount);
            jsonGenerator.writeString(sb.toString());
        }
    }
}
