Same question as in ticket: https://eventespresso.com/topic/changing-the-paypal-item-description-for-paypal-pro/
Is there a way to update the item description on the paypal transaction? I would like it to include the attendees name, we have lots of parents paying for kids tickets and need the kids name in item description.

Hi there,
All of the payment methods in EE now run through a filter – FHEE__EE_Gateway___order_description
That filter can be used to change the default description for any/all payment methods and we have some examples of doing so here:
https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/9805da8ac5afff20e6ef7d331c79e08b
One thing to be aware of is a lot of payment providers limit the length of the description field you can use so you may not be able to include all of the details you would like to.

Something like this:
https://gist.github.com/Pebblo/9b6864bbd3c8253607bbd35592656962
Will send {Event Name} tickets for {attendee names} as the description.
Note the snippets are intended as examples on how to build your own functions are unsupported.

It can go in either your themes functions.php file (preferably a child theme) or you can create a custom functions plugin and add it to that:
