How merchant aliases work

So "SQ *COFFEE#123" shows up as "Corner coffee shop".

Banks often show cryptic descriptions. Atrium learns aliases so you see readable names.

When you rename a transaction, we ask whether to apply that name to future transactions with the same original description. From then on, any new import uses the alias automatically.

Aliases are per household: what one member teaches, everyone sees. You can review and delete them from the gear icon inside Transactions, or wipe them all from Settings → Account → Danger zone.
