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

When SURA processes insurance premium payments across Latin America, their billing system transmits the truncated descriptor "SURA*" to card networks and banks, with the asterisk serving as a standard delimiter that separates the brand name from additional transaction data such as a policy number or regional code that may get cut off depending on your bank's display limits. SURA is one of the largest insurance groups in Latin America, operating across Colombia, Mexico, Chile, and several other countries, and the shortened descriptor reflects how their payment processing infrastructure encodes charges at the point of billing rather than displaying the full company name. If you hold an auto, home, life, or health insurance policy through SURA and see this charge appearing monthly, it is almost certainly your recurring premium deduction processed through their regional billing system.

SURA bills you Monthly. To stop future charges, cancel from your account directly.

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