Ability to send attendee name as part of description sent to Authorize.net

Hello,

Our client is using EE4’s Auth.net Accept.js module. This question pertains to the description of the purchase sent to Authorize.net

In EE3 using Auth.net, EE sent across the event name, Reg ID, total registrants & registrant name as the description. In EE4 it appears to just send across the event name.

The client is wondering if there’s any way to include the registrant’s name as part of the description? (eg, event name + registrant name).

Thank you in advance!

Hi Tyler,

Yes, it is possible as the order description is filtered, however, note that there is a 300 character limit on Auth.net’s side.

The default description is ‘Event Registrations from {site name} for {event name}’ but you can filter that using FHEE__EE_Gateway___order_description.

Here are a couple of examples of using that filter to change the description:
