ANGHAMI* Charge (What It Is + Is It Legit?)

When Anghami processes its monthly subscription payments of around 30 AED, the billing system truncates the company name and appends an asterisk to create the shortened descriptor "ANGHAMI*" that cardholders see on their statements. The asterisk format is a standard convention used by payment processors to separate a merchant's name from additional transaction details such as a subscription tier or region code, and many streaming services operating across the Middle East and North Africa use this same pattern. If you recognize a regular monthly charge of approximately 30 AED labeled ANGHAMI* on your statement, it is simply your recurring Anghami Arabic music streaming subscription being processed through their payment gateway.

No, this is a legitimate charge from Anghami. However, if you did not authorize this charge or cancelled your subscription, you may be eligible for a refund.
