Descriptor

The descriptor is the text representing an order on the consumer's bank statement issued by their bank. It provides information for the consumer, as it associates a specific debit on the consumer's account with the respective purchase in your shop.

  • If the descriptor is set to No, the issuer/acquirer generates a default entry for each purchase.

  • If the descriptor is set to Yes, the default descriptor text consists of the first 9 characters of the shop name and the order number. To modify the descriptor, use the method getDescriptor in the file Extend/Model/Payment_Gateway.php.

    • Allowed characters: umlaut, 0-9, a-z, A-Z, , +, ,, -, .
    • Max. length: 27 characters
