stripe statement descriptor chargebacks unrecognized

The actual problem

Unclear bank descriptors drive “unrecognized charge” disputes that were otherwise valid sales.

Do this

1. Settings → Public details / statement descriptor: use recognizable brand + product hint.
2. Keep soft descriptor consistent across Checkout and invoices.
3. Add a support phone/URL customers see on statements where supported.
4. Compare dispute reasons 30 days before/after the descriptor change.
