# Sender and Recipient Names
source: https://developer.mastercard.com/mastercard-send-disbursements/documentation/field-uris-codes/names/index.md

The `sender` and `recipient` objects enable you to identify those entities.

When an entity is a consumer or individual, provide the name in the `first_name`, `last_name`, and optional `middle_name` fields. You can provide `type` = '01' (Consumer) or omit that field.

When an entity is a business or organization, use `type` = '02' (Organization) and provide the legal business name in the `organization_name` field. You do not need to use the `first_name` and `last_name` fields. Example:
* JSON
* XML

```JSON
"sender": {
  "type": "02",
  "organization_name": "XYZ International",
  ...
```

```XML
<sender>
  <type>02</type>
  <organization_name>XYZ International</organization_name>
  ...
```

Originating Institutions using this API for multiple card acceptors using a single Partner Reference ID must populate the disburser (Sender) information in every POST API request. When populated, the fields are mapped and passed to downstream networks. When the Sender Address is included, it is also mapped as Card Acceptor address to downstream networks.
