Import gocardless "merchantCategoryCode"

[tboby]

Support guidelines

• I've read the support guidelines
• My request is not listed as a very good idea, but unfortunately...
• I've used the search and this has not been requested before.

Description

The gocardless/nordigen API includes merchantCategoryCode, which seems to be pretty well completed for my UK banks.

It would be useful if this field was mapped into transactions on import.

Solution

With the merchant code it would be possible to automatically map to categories. Actually doing that is outside the scope of this request, but if this was implemented then a 3rd party app could do the mapping.

What are alternatives?

None that I know of

Additional context

No response

I'll pick it up, thanks! Will probably become a tag.
