Why does this charge appear?

Alliant Credit Union uses the shortened descriptor "ALLIANT CU*" on bank statements because financial institutions are subject to strict character limits imposed by card networks and payment processing systems, which typically cap merchant descriptors at 22 characters or fewer. The abbreviation "CU" is a widely recognized shorthand for "credit union" within the banking industry, making it a natural truncation that Alliant adopted to fit within these technical constraints while still remaining identifiable to members. If you see "ALLIANT CU*" followed by additional characters on your statement, it is a legitimate charge from Alliant Credit Union related to a banking fee or account transaction.
