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

Slack uses the truncated descriptor "SLACK*" on bank statements because their payment processing system appends an asterisk to distinguish individual workspace subscription transactions, a common convention used by Stripe, which handles billing for many SaaS platforms including Slack. The asterisk typically signals that additional detail follows, such as a workspace name or billing tier, though card networks often cut off the full string before it reaches your statement. If you see "SLACK*" alongside a charge of around $7.25, it almost certainly reflects your monthly Slack Pro workspace subscription billed directly through Slack Technologies, LLC.

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