I think we need to highlight that these are only Visa specific fields, know that you specify the naming of the document.
I'm not sure which parts/information we normally put in the Partner Guideline and which we add here, but think information in the line of these is not something we have added to the api-docs previously 🤷

Purpose of Payment is not related to recipient data so it does not make sense to have it in the recipient dictionary.
AFAICT, we should the same as for credits, i.e. have it on the same level as e.g. text_on_statement. Because the Debits section currently only refers to the parameters for an authorization, we need to add a Parameters section to debits, stating that these parameters are in addition to the parameters supported for an authorization.

IMHO we should try to converge towards not having these purposeless spaces 🙂

As a part of: https://github.com/clearhaus/issues-project-management/issues/264
Visa requires Purpose of payment on both AFT and OCT for cross-border transactions.
Based on
Visas Purpose of Payment - Standardized Codes ListI can only see 6 character codes in the list.
