Understand Google charges on your bank statement

Important: If you think a charge was made by Google in error, file a dispute.

Find charges for Google products

When you buy something from Google, you’ll find a charge on your account that starts with "GOOGLE*" and ends with the Google product or another descriptor.

Pending transactions

When you use a payment method through a Google service, during a purchase or with autofill on Chrome, you may find a charge on your account with the descriptor GOOGLE *TEMPORARY HOLD. This is a pending charge performed to verify that your card account is valid. When the transaction goes through, the hold will go away.

Find charges for non-Google products

When you buy from a retailer other than Google, the charge will appear with the retailer’s brand. If you have questions about the charge, contact the retailer.
