Why does this charge appear?

GOL Airlines, one of Brazil's largest low-cost carriers, uses the abbreviated billing descriptor "G3\*" on bank statements because G3 is the airline's official IATA designator code, which serves as the standardized identifier for the carrier in international aviation and payment processing systems. When you purchase a ticket or ancillary service through GOL's booking platform, the payment is processed using this IATA code rather than the full brand name, a common practice among airlines that rely on these universal two-letter codes for transaction routing and reconciliation. If you recently booked a flight within or to Brazil and see "G3\*" on your statement, it is almost certainly a legitimate charge from GOL Airlines.

What should you do?

1

Identify Your GOL Airlines Booking

The G3* charge on your statement is the abbreviated billing descriptor used by GOL Airlines. Log in to your GOL Airlines account at voegol.com.br and check your booking history to match the charge amount with a flight reservation, ticket purchase, or ancillary service you purchased.

2

Check for GOL Add-Ons or Fees

GOL Airlines sometimes bills separately for extras like checked baggage, seat selection, or travel insurance, which may appear as an additional G3* charge. Review your original booking confirmation email from GOL Airlines and compare all itemized costs to ensure every G3* charge on your statement corresponds to a service you selected.

3

Contact GOL Airlines Support Directly

If you cannot reconcile the G3* charge with a known booking, reach out to GOL Airlines through their official online support page at voegol.com.br/en/customer-service/contacts-online-support. Provide the charge amount and date so their team can locate the specific transaction tied to your account or booking reference number.
