GLOVO NG* Charge (What It Is + Is It Legit?)

When Glovo Nigeria processes payments for food and grocery deliveries, the transaction is routed through Glovo's regional billing system, which truncates the full company name to fit within the character limits imposed by international payment networks like Visa and Mastercard. The "NG" in the descriptor is a country code identifying Nigeria as the billing origin, while the asterisk separates the brand name from this regional identifier — a formatting convention used across Glovo's African markets to standardize how charges appear across different banking systems. So if you recently ordered through the Glovo app in Nigeria, the GLOVO NG* entry on your statement is simply how that delivery charge is recorded by your bank.

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