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

When Payoneer processes payments or collects service fees, their billing system transmits a shortened identifier to card networks and banks, which is why the descriptor shows up as PAYONEER* rather than the full company name. The asterisk following PAYONEER is a standard formatting convention used by payment platforms to separate the merchant identifier from any additional transaction details, such as a reference code or sub-merchant identifier that may follow it. If you have recently sent or received money through Payoneer, paid a withdrawal fee, or were billed for an annual account fee, this descriptor is the expected way that charge will appear on your bank or credit card statement.

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