# Statement Descriptor Data
source: https://developer.mastercard.com/mastercard-gateway/documentation/gateway-features/data-and-reporting/supp-data/statement-descp-data/index.md

Statement descriptor data, also known as dynamic descriptor data, includes contact information that you provide for printing on the account statements of a payer.
This data is submitted to the acquirer, and it overrides the descriptor data registered at the acquirer. If you provide partial statement descriptor data on a transaction, the acquirer completes the statement data using the descriptor data as registered at the acquirer.
Warning: As a prerequisite, your merchant profile on your payment service provider must be enabled to use statement descriptor data.

The following methods are supported:

| Integration methods | Payment methods |                 Transactions                  |
|---------------------|-----------------|-----------------------------------------------|
| All                 | All             | * AUTHORIZE * PAY * CAPTURE * REFUND * VERIFY |

To view an example of an API request with statement descriptor data, download the [Postman collection](https://www.postman.com/mastercard/mastercard-developers/collection/4fakvrd/mastercard-gateway-api).

If you have to submit statement descriptor data, provide the following contact information about your business in the `order.statementDescriptor` field in the request.

* Merchant name.
* Full address of the merchant.
* Phone number of the merchant's business.

Warning: For merchant and sub-merchant transactions with US as the country code, ensure to provide the full address and a valid state code, else, an error message displays.

The submitted data is returned in the transaction response.
