About Verifone Payments B.V.
Verifone Payments B.V. is part of Verifone, a global provider of electronic payment solutions, including card terminals, payment gateways, and merchant acquiring services. The “B.V.” indicates a Dutch private limited company, and this entity typically serves European and international merchants by routing card payments securely between banks and businesses.
When you see “VERIFONE PAYMENTS B.V. PURCHASE [number]” on your card statement, it usually means you made a purchase at a store, website, or service that uses Verifone as its payment processor or acquiring partner. The long numeric code following the word “PURCHASE” is often an internal transaction or authorization reference, not an order number you’d see on your receipt. Importantly, Verifone is processing the payment on behalf of the actual merchant, so the underlying store or service name may not appear clearly in the statement line.
To verify or resolve questions about this charge, start by checking recent receipts, order confirmations, and emails from around the date of the transaction; the merchant you bought from is the one that can look up the transaction using the date, time, and amount. If you still can’t identify it, contact your bank or card issuer and provide them the exact descriptor, amount, and date—they can often see additional merchant details not shown on your online statement. Verifone does not typically handle consumer disputes directly; instead, disputes and chargebacks are initiated through your card issuer, who will then work with Verifone and the merchant as needed.
