Billing Descriptor

The text that appears on a customer’s card statement for a purchase — a quiet driver of disputes.

A billing descriptor is the short line of text shown on a customer’s statement for a charge, typically a business name plus a support contact.

A clear, recognizable descriptor is one of the cheapest ways to prevent disputes, because unrecognized charges are a leading cause of friendly fraud.
