Level II Data
Level II cards, which are also called
Type II cards
, provide customers
with additional information on their credit card statements about their purchases. Level
II cards enable customers to easily track the amount of sales tax they pay and to
reconcile transactions with a unique customer code. There are two categories of Level II
cards: - Business/corporate cards are given by businesses to employees for business-related expenses such as travel and entertainment or for corporate supplies and services.
- Purchase/procurement cards are used by businesses for expenses such as supplies and services. These cards are often used as replacements for purchase orders.
Each processor supports a different set of Level II fields. If your business is not in
the United States, you must use additional fields.
Support for Level II processing is processor and card specific. See Supported Processors and Card Types: Level II for a list of the supported card
types for your processor.
