Customize the information that appears on your customers' credit card statements.

After a customer places an order on your site with a credit card or Apple Pay, Stripe sends basic information about your business and the purchase to your customer's bank. Depending on the format their bank uses, a combination of the following identifiers will appear on your customer's bank statement:

• Your business name
• Your site URL
• Your business location
• Your phone number
