What are the benefits of Stripe level 2 data?
Summary
Level 2 card data is a set of additional information that can be passed during a credit card transaction. Level 2 card data provides more information for business, commercial, corporate, purchasing, and government cardholders.
The benefits of Level 2 data for Stripe include:
Lower interchange fees: By providing more detailed information about a transaction, Level 2 data can help qualify for lower interchange fees from credit card networks, which leads to merchants paying lower processing fees.
Improved record-keeping: The additional information captured through Level 2 data can help businesses keep more detailed and accurate records of their transactions, making it easier to track expenses and revenues.
Enhanced security: Capturing additional details about a transaction can help prevent fraud and reduce chargebacks, as the additional information can be used to verify the legitimacy of a transaction.
