Why does this charge appear?

Funimation uses the truncated descriptor "FUNIMATION*" on bank statements because payment processors like Stripe and major credit card networks often append an asterisk to a merchant name to signal a recurring subscription charge, helping distinguish it from a one-time purchase. The asterisk format is a widely adopted convention among streaming services to indicate that the billing is automated and ongoing, which is particularly relevant since Funimation's subscription has continued billing customers even as the platform transitions its library into Crunchyroll. If you see "FUNIMATION*" on your statement, it almost certainly corresponds to your monthly anime streaming plan, which typically runs between $5.99 and $9.99 depending on the tier you signed up for.

What should you do?

1

Confirm your Funimation subscription

Visit funimation.com and log into your account to verify that you have an active subscription. The FUNIMATION* charge on your statement is a legitimate anime streaming fee, so check your account dashboard to confirm your plan details and billing date match the charge you see.

2

Check your Crunchyroll account

Since Funimation has merged with Crunchyroll, your subscription may now be managed through Crunchyroll. Log in at sso.crunchyroll.com/login to see if your billing has transitioned over, as the FUNIMATION* charge may reflect a plan that is now accessible through the combined Crunchyroll platform.

3

Review which plan you are paying for

Inside your Funimation or Crunchyroll account settings, navigate to the subscription or billing section to identify exactly which tier you are being charged for. Funimation offered plans at different price points, and confirming the tier will help you decide whether the FUNIMATION* amount on your statement is correct or if you should adjust your plan.

4

Cancel if you no longer use the service

If you no longer watch anime content and want to stop the recurring FUNIMATION* charge, go to sso.crunchyroll.com/login to manage or cancel your subscription through the merged platform. Make sure to cancel before your next billing cycle to avoid being charged again.
