# Payment Descriptions

## How we label payment descriptions

Where possible we will label the descriptions on your Credit Card portal to match the type of payment your customer made. These labels are as follows:

**PPNS:** Customer paid via the payment portal but didn’t save a card. In this scenario the customer details, along with the customer's card, will not be saved to the credit card gateway. *Please Note: different gateways will handle this process differently.*

**PPSC:** Customer has paid via the payment portal and has opted to save the card as a secure token to the attached credit card gateway for future payments. The customer will still need to log into the payment portal and action the payment in the future. It won’t be setup for Auto Payment.

**PPSA:** Customer has paid via the payment portal and has opted to save the card and enable Auto Payment for future invoices. Payment will be dictated by the attached payment rules.

**PPEC:** Customer has paid via the payment portal and used a previously saved card.
