Transaction Identification {API}

    Identify the company brand assets behind any transaction description.

    The Brand.dev Transaction Identification API helps you match raw transaction strings (like what shows up on a card statement) to the actual company name, website, and brand.

    It's a modern solution to the messy world of unclear bank statement data. Whether you're powering personal finance apps, customer support tools, or fraud detection systems, this API helps you map card transactions to real businesses without friction.

    How It Works

    Here's how the company transaction identification API works behind the scenes:

    1

    You send a transaction description like GREGORYS COFFEE $9.99

    2

    Our engine parses and cleans the string

    3

    We use a combination of token matching, BIN data, payment processor mapping (e.g., Stripe, Square, PayPal), and known merchant database

    4

    We return the best match business identity, including domain, logo, and category

    Uses multiple data sources:

    • • Token matching algorithms
    • • BIN (Bank Identification Number) data
    • • Payment processor mapping
    • • Known merchant database
    • • Transaction pattern analysis
    • • Geographic location data

    It's the easiest way to identify the business behind a credit card transaction.
