-Use this property to add a default params serializer. Current options are: `qs`.
+Use this property to decide how params are serialized. This is only taken into account when `paramsSerializer` is not defined.
+Currently, only `qs` is the available option. Read more about `qs` and it's settings [here](https://www.npmjs.com/package/qs).
 
-All options are then passed to the chosen serializer.
