What is "MIDJOURNEY" on my bank statement?
MIDJOURNEY is a legitimate subscription charge for Midjourney’s AI image generation service.
Merchant: Midjourney | Category: Subscription
What Is This Charge?
A charge from Midjourney reflects a purchase of an AI image generation subscription from Midjourney, Inc., a private company founded in 2021. Midjourney is not a retail store, and it does not have physical store locations or store counts because it operates as a software service. The company sells access to its image-generation tools through paid plans that are usually billed monthly or annually. The charge is legitimate when it matches a plan you started on Midjourney’s website or through its Discord-based signup flow.
Why Does This Charge Appear on My Statement?
This charge appears when you start a paid Midjourney plan, renew an existing subscription, or upgrade from a lower tier to a higher tier. It can also appear after a free trial ends if you entered a payment method and confirmed billing. Some users see the charge after buying extra GPU time, switching billing cycles, or reactivating a canceled account. The statement line usually posts when Midjourney processes the card payment through its billing system.
Typical Charge Amounts
Midjourney subscription charges commonly start at $10 per month for the Basic plan and $30 per month for the Standard plan. The Pro plan is commonly $60 per month, and annual billing can post as a larger upfront amount such as $96, $288, or $576 depending on the tier. Some cards also show a temporary authorization hold of $1.00 or a small test charge before the final subscription posts. If you upgraded mid-cycle, the posted amount can be a prorated charge that is different from the listed monthly price.

Is This Charge Legitimate?
A Midjourney charge is legitimate if you signed up on midjourney.com, joined the official Midjourney Discord, or upgraded a plan in your account settings. Check your email for a receipt from Midjourney and compare the billed amount with the plan prices shown in your account dashboard. Review your card activity for the exact date, because the charge often posts shortly after signup, renewal, or plan changes. If you do not recognize the charge, contact Midjourney support through the help links in your account and verify whether another person on your card used the service.
How to Dispute or Cancel
1. Log in to your Midjourney account and open the billing or subscription page to cancel the plan before the next renewal date. 2. Save the cancellation confirmation and any receipt email, because those records help if the charge posts again. 3. If you cannot find the account, use the official support options on midjourney.com and the Midjourney Discord help channels to request billing help. 4. If the charge is unauthorized, call the number on the back of your card right away and open a card dispute while you are also contacting the merchant. 5. Keep in mind that digital subscription charges are usually nonrefundable after the billing period starts, so the fastest path is to cancel first and dispute only if the charge is still unauthorized.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Midjourney charge show as MIDJOURNEY*SUBSCRIPTION?
MIDJOURNEY*SUBSCRIPTION usually means your card was billed for a paid Midjourney plan rather than a one-time purchase. The descriptor often appears when a monthly or annual subscription renews, when you upgrade plans, or when a trial converts to paid billing.
How do I cancel my Midjourney subscription?
Cancel your Midjourney subscription by logging into your account and opening the billing or subscription settings page. Save the cancellation confirmation, because recurring digital subscriptions can renew automatically if you do not cancel before the next billing date.
Why is my Midjourney charge a different amount than expected?
A Midjourney charge can differ from the advertised price because of prorated upgrades, annual billing, taxes, or a temporary card authorization hold. If you changed plans mid-cycle, the posted amount may include part of the old plan and part of the new plan.
Does Midjourney offer refunds for subscription charges?
Midjourney subscription charges are usually tied to the billing period that already started, so refunds are not guaranteed. If you believe the charge was unauthorized, contact support immediately and also start a dispute with your card issuer.
Can a family member's Midjourney account charge my card?
Yes, a family member or coworker can charge your card if they used your payment method to start a Midjourney plan. Check shared email inboxes, Discord accounts, and saved payment methods before filing a fraud claim.
