Show standardized payees
When you download transactions, Money standardizes the transaction payee names before searching for payee name matches. Standardizing removes all numbers and punctuation, which increases the odds of finding a match. For example, Grocery Store 123 is standardized to Grocery Store, and AB & C becomes AB C.

If Money does not find a payee name match after standardizing the downloaded payee name, you can choose whether to see the standardized name or the original downloaded name in your account register.


  1. On the Tools menu, click Settings.
