Why was I charged twice for the same transaction? (authorization holds)

Updated June 18, 2026

A double charge is usually due to a temporary hold.

You may see: One pending charge (the original hold) One posted charge (the final amount)

Don't worry—the pending charge will drop off in a few business days.

If both charges fully post, you can contact the merchant for a refund.

If that doesn’t work, you can use the app to file a dispute.
