RECURLY*NETFLIX Charge (What It Is + Is It Legit?)

When Netflix processes subscription payments through its billing partner Recurly, the payment processor's name gets prepended to the transaction record, which is why your bank statement shows "RECURLY*NETFLIX" rather than simply "Netflix." Recurly is a subscription management and billing platform that handles the recurring payment infrastructure for Netflix, and the asterisk format is a standard convention used by Recurly to identify itself as the processor followed by the merchant name. If you see this charge for around $15.49 on a monthly basis, it is simply your regular Netflix streaming subscription being handled behind the scenes by Recurly's payment system.

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