What is it?

Merchant Via is the shortened merchant name - the long name is Merchant Via Borderfree who is the processor for your payment.

I purchased an online item from a US-based vendor through borderfree.com to be delivered to my address in Canada. I paid using PayPal and now the seller info is showing on the PayPal account as "Merchant Via Borderfree" and the name on my credit card statement is showing 'MERCHANTVIA'
