FOODPANDA PH* Charge (What It Is + Is It Legit?)

Foodpanda Philippines uses a shortened billing descriptor format because payment networks like Visa and Mastercard impose strict character limits on how merchant names appear in bank transaction records, typically capping descriptors at around 20 to 25 characters. To fit within these constraints while still identifying both the brand and its regional operation, the company's payment processing system combines a truncated version of the Foodpanda name with the country code "PH" and an asterisk separator, resulting in "FOODPANDA PH*" on your statement. If you recently ordered food delivery through the Foodpanda app or website in the Philippines and see this charge for around 200 PHP, it is simply your meal order appearing under this abbreviated billing name.

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