A merchant-specified, payment processor-specific identifier that is sent with Transactions generated using this Billing Plan. The payment processor uses this value to determine the text displayed on the customer's credit card statement associated with the transaction. Enter a value for the Statement ID only if you and your payment processor have agreed upon one. If you and your payment processor do not establish an ID, leave this field blank.

Bills In | Billing Plans can be priced in multiple currencies or Tokens or not
