Every day, millions of people look at their credit card or bank statement and see a charge they don't recognize. The text is cryptic, abbreviated, and often bears no resemblance to the business they actually purchased from. This confusion leads to unnecessary calls to banks, disputed charges, and frustration for both consumers and merchants.
WhoBilled.Me exists to solve that problem. We maintain a comprehensive database of billing descriptors — the short text strings that appear on your statement — mapped to the actual merchants behind them, complete with contact information, websites, and business details.
Simply type the text from your statement into our search box. We'll match it against our database and show you exactly who charged you, how to contact them, and what you can do about it.
Our database covers hundreds of thousands of billing descriptors from across the payment industry. Records are sourced from payment industry databases, public records, and merchant self-reporting. Merchants can claim and verify their listings to ensure accuracy.
If you're a business and want to make sure your customers can identify your charges, you can claim your record on Descriptors.io, our industry platform. Verified listings include your contact info, return policy, and other details that help customers recognize your charges.
WhoBilled.Me is the consumer-facing service of Descriptors.io, the Payment Descriptor Intelligence Platform used by merchants, acquirers, ISOs, and issuing banks to manage and improve billing descriptors across the payment ecosystem.
