What Is IZ* or Zettle on My Bank Statement?

Zettle — formerly iZettle, now owned by PayPal — makes card readers used by small businesses, especially in the UK and Europe: cafés, market stalls, taxis and pop-ups. Older charges read iZ* SHOPNAME; newer ones Zettle *Business Name.

The name after the prefix is the business you paid in person.

Don't recognize a IZ* / ZETTLE* charge? Do this

  1. Think back to in-person purchases around the date: markets, events, cafés, taxis.
  2. Ask the business for a receipt — Zettle merchants can email or text one.
  3. Zettle won't identify merchants to cardholders; if you can't place it, your bank can.
