Library

Transaction enrichment library for .NET

Use TxnKit as a transaction enrichment API from .NET. This page shows the safe request shape, a short code snippet, and the boundary for keeping sensitive data out of the integration.

Target intent

.NET teams adding transaction enrichment to server-side finance applications.

TxnKit is not an accounting engine, tax classifier, or transaction data warehouse.

Raw descriptor

VISA DDA PUR 5542 GAS BAR

Short .NET API snippet

using var client = new HttpClient { Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1) };
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization =
    new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("TXNKIT_API_KEY"));

var response = await client.PostAsJsonAsync("https://api.txnkit.dev/v1/enrich", new {
    raw_description = "VISA DDA PUR 5542 GAS BAR",
    country = "CA"
});

Keep API keys out of browser bundles. For frontend stacks, call a backend route or serverless function that owns the TxnKit request.

API-shaped output

{
  "normalized_merchant": "visa dda pur gas bar",
  "display_name": "Visa Dda Pur Gas Bar",
  "category": null,
  "subcategory": null,
  "website": null,
  "logos": {
    "preferred": null,
    "variants": [],
    "warnings": [
      "no_verified_logo_for_local_merchant"
    ]
  },
  "confidence": 0.56,
  "recurring_hint": false,
  "processor_hint": "unknown",
  "location_hint": null,
  "signals": [
    "removed_reference_tokens"
  ],
  "warnings": [
    "local_merchant_identity_not_verified"
  ]
}

Low-confidence results should keep fallback labels and warnings visible instead of forcing a guessed logo or website.

When to use

  • You are building in .NET and need one-descriptor merchant cleanup through an HTTP API.
  • Your app can keep the TxnKit API key on the server side or inside a trusted serverless function.
  • You need merchant display names, categories, confidence, signals, warnings, and logo-ready metadata.

When not to use

  • TxnKit is not an accounting engine, tax classifier, or transaction data warehouse.
  • Do not use TxnKit to process card numbers, account numbers, full statements, bank credentials, emails, phone numbers, addresses, customer names, or customer PII.
  • Do not use TxnKit when the product requirement is guaranteed merchant identity, every-merchant resolution, or contracted uptime terms.

Proof surfaces

The public contract is POST /v1/enrich, backed by the OpenAPI file, benchmark examples, privacy rules, and deterministic request-path tests.
