What is "INTUIT*" on my bank statement?
INTUIT* is usually a legitimate subscription or purchase from Intuit for products like QuickBooks or TurboTax.
Merchant: Intuit | Category: Subscription
What Is This Charge?
A charge from Intuit reflects a purchase at Intuit Inc., a financial software company founded in 1983 that serves millions of customers through products like QuickBooks, TurboTax, Credit Karma, and payroll tools. Intuit is not a physical retail chain, so there is no store count in the usual sense, and the charge usually comes from an online subscription, software renewal, or tax filing fee. The descriptor often appears when a customer buys accounting software, files a tax return, or pays for payroll services through an Intuit product. The charge is usually legitimate when the cardholder used an Intuit app, website, or connected service.
Why Does This Charge Appear on My Statement?
This charge appears when you start a paid Intuit service, renew an annual subscription, or complete a tax filing that includes a filing fee. It can also appear after a free trial ends and the card on file is billed automatically. In some cases, the charge comes from a separate Intuit product such as QuickBooks Online, TurboTax Deluxe, TurboTax Live, or QuickBooks Payroll. If a family member, accountant, or bookkeeper used your card in an Intuit account, the charge can also show up without the cardholder recognizing the merchant name.
Typical Charge Amounts
Intuit charges often start around $0.00 to $1.00 for a card verification hold before the real purchase posts. TurboTax products commonly range from about $39.99 for basic filing to $129.99 or more for premium or live-assisted filing. QuickBooks Online plans often post as monthly charges such as $30, $60, $90, or $200 depending on the plan and number of users. Payroll and add-on services can create recurring charges in the $45 to $150 range, and tax refund processing or payment-plan fees can add separate service amounts.

Is This Charge Legitimate?
A legitimate Intuit charge usually matches a product you used in the last 1 to 12 months, such as QuickBooks Online, TurboTax, or payroll software. Check your Intuit account at https://accounts.intuit.com or sign in through the product app to review billing history, active subscriptions, and saved payment methods. You can also look for confirmation emails from Intuit that mention the exact product name, renewal date, and amount charged. If you do not recognize the charge, call Intuit support at 1-800-446-8848 and ask for the invoice number, subscription name, and billing date.
How to Dispute or Cancel
1. Sign in to your Intuit account and open the billing or subscriptions page to confirm the product, renewal date, and amount. 2. Cancel the subscription in the product settings if you no longer want the service, because many Intuit plans renew automatically. 3. Call Intuit support at 1-800-446-8848 if the charge is unfamiliar, duplicated, or tied to the wrong account. 4. If Intuit cannot resolve the issue, contact your bank or card issuer immediately and file a dispute for the specific transaction amount and date. 5. Save screenshots, emails, and invoice numbers, because banks usually ask for proof before reversing a digital subscription charge.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Intuit charge show as INTUIT*QB?
INTUIT*QB usually means the charge came from QuickBooks, which is Intuit’s accounting software line. The billing may be for QuickBooks Online, a payroll add-on, or an annual renewal tied to a business account. Check your Intuit billing page and recent emails for the exact plan name, amount, and renewal date.
How do I cancel my Intuit subscription?
Cancel your Intuit subscription by signing in at https://accounts.intuit.com, opening the subscriptions or billing section, and turning off auto-renew for the product. If the charge is for TurboTax, QuickBooks, or Payroll, cancel inside that product account as well. Keep the cancellation confirmation email, because it is the best proof if a later renewal posts.
Why is my Intuit charge a different amount than expected?
An Intuit charge can differ from the expected amount because of tax, add-on services, plan upgrades, or a separate card verification hold. TurboTax can also add state filing fees, live expert fees, or payment-processing charges. QuickBooks and payroll plans may bill monthly or annually, so the posted amount can be larger than the first quote you saw.
Can Intuit charges be from TurboTax even if I did not file recently?
Yes, an Intuit charge can still be from TurboTax if you enrolled in a payment plan, bought audit support, or left auto-renew turned on. Some TurboTax products bill after filing, and some services renew the following year. Check your TurboTax account and email receipts for the exact service name and billing date.
What should I do if I do not recognize an Intuit charge?
First, check your Intuit account, email inbox, and bank statement for the exact amount and date. Second, call Intuit support at 1-800-446-8848 and ask which product billed the card. Third, if the charge is still unknown, contact your bank and dispute the transaction before the card statement closes.
