RAPPI EC* Charge (What It Is + Is It Legit?)

When Rappi processes payments in Ecuador, their billing system submits transactions using a shortened merchant code rather than the full company name, which is why you see "RAPPI EC\*" on your statement instead of "Rappi Ecuador." The "EC" portion is the ISO country code for Ecuador, appended to identify the regional entity handling the transaction, while the asterisk is a standard delimiter used by payment processors to separate the brand name from additional order or transaction reference details. This compact format is common among app-based delivery platforms operating across multiple Latin American countries, where payment gateways truncate merchant names to fit character limits imposed by card networks.

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