Why does this charge appear?
Amazon Singapore uses the shortened descriptor AMAZON SG* on bank statements because payment processing networks like Visa and Mastercard impose strict character limits on merchant descriptors, typically capping them at 22 characters or fewer. The "SG" portion specifically identifies the regional entity as Amazon's Singaporean marketplace, distinguishing it from Amazon's other country-specific storefronts such as Amazon Japan or Amazon Australia, which use their own regional codes. The asterisk following AMAZON SG* is a standard formatting convention used by Amazon's billing system to separate the merchant identifier from any additional transaction details, such as an order number or product category, that may follow it on your statement.
What should you do?
Check your Amazon Singapore account to verify your subscription.
