WooCommerce: Customise payment descriptions

Include order details such as order number and customer name in the payment descriptions that appear in your Mollie Dashboard.

When a customer buys something from your store, Mollie attaches a description to the payment.

The description appears in your Mollie Dashboard under Transactions > Payments or Orders, and can appear on your customers' bank statements depending on the payment method used and the customer's bank.

By default, the payment description includes the WooCommerce orderNumber, Mollie order status, API method used, and refund status.

Note

You can only change the payment description when you use the Payments API to process payments.

You can combine free text and the following variables:

  • orderNumber

  • {storeName}

  • {customerFirstname}

  • {customerLastname}

  • {customerCompany}

  • {cartNumber}

Note

You can only change the payment description when you use the Payments API to process payments.
