Solution
Processor descriptor cleanup
TxnKit helps teams solve processor descriptor cleanup with one safe descriptor, confidence-aware output, and warnings when identity evidence is weak.
Target intent
normalize Square, Stripe, PayPal, Shopify, and other wrapper text.
TxnKit does not call processor APIs during enrichment.
Raw descriptor
SQ *JOES COFFEE 0421 TORONTOAPI-shaped output
{
"input": {
"descriptor": "SQ *JOES COFFEE 0421 TORONTO",
"country": "CA"
},
"output": {
"merchant_name": "Joes Coffee",
"category": "Coffee shop",
"confidence": "medium",
"signals": [
"processor_pattern",
"merchant_alias",
"category_hint"
],
"warnings": [
"review_low_confidence_matches_before_showing_logo"
],
"logos": []
}
}Low-confidence results should keep fallback labels and warnings visible instead of forcing a guessed logo or website.
When to use
- You need processor descriptor cleanup for transaction-feed UI, audit, or import review workflows.
- You can send safe anonymized descriptors without customer PII or full statement text.
- You want API-shaped output that a developer can inspect before wiring product UI.
When not to use
- TxnKit does not call processor APIs during enrichment.
- 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.
