Can I set statement descriptors dynamically?

Yes. You can define the statement descriptor in three ways:

  • Account level — You must configure an account-level statement descriptor, that serves as the default descriptor for all transactions. Refer to Defining the account-level statement descriptor.
  • Per product (only with Hosted Checkout) — If you are using our Hosted Checkout Pages, you can set up a separate statement descriptor per product on the Product Information page.
  • Per transaction and per subscription — If you are using our Payment API or Extended Payment API, you can also define a descriptor dynamically per transaction and per subscription by including the soft-descriptor property in your request. Refer to the API documentation.

Can I take my data with me if I leave BlueSnap?

If you decide to leave us, first we would like to know why. We pride ourselves on providing the best product and support in the industry. If we fall short of that commitment, we would like your feedback so we know where we need to improve. You can access and retrieve all data that is not covered by PCI requirements using our Reporting API.

For PCI-covered data (credit card number, expiration date, etc.), we are required to transfer this data to your new provider in a PCI-compliant manner. For more information on this process, refer to Data Migration.
