Find the Roku purchase: in your Roku account
- Sign in to my.roku.com.
- Go to Purchase history and invoices.

Find the Roku purchase: if you don't see it
- Check for other Roku devices, accounts or emails. To see the email linked to a device, go to Settings, then System, then About.
- Ask household members whether they bought something on your Roku.
- Check whether a free trial turned into a paid subscription because auto-renew stayed on.
Other things Roku says it can be
- A $1.00 charge is a temporary hold Roku uses to confirm your payment method is valid. It isn't a real charge, and the amount is refunded.
- A subscription you started directly with the provider won't be in your Roku purchase history. Contact that provider to manage or cancel it.
- For Disney+, Hulu or Sling TV billed through Roku, Roku says to contact those services directly.
- Manage or cancel other Roku subscriptions at my.roku.com/subscriptions.

When to go to your card company
If nothing in your Roku account, or the account of anyone who uses your card, matches the date and amount, or Roku won't fix a charge that's wrong, contact the bank or card company that issued the card. Credit and debit cards have different rights and deadlines: the guide to disputing a charge has both side by side.
Questions people ask
What is Roku on my credit card statement?
A charge billed by Roku. Roku says its charges appear as Roku, Roku for a provider, or The Roku Channel.
What is a $1.00 Roku charge?
Roku says it's a temporary hold to confirm your payment method is valid. It isn't a real charge and is refunded.
Why does my statement show only Paramount+ or Starz?
Roku says a charge with only the provider's name usually means you subscribed directly with that provider, so it won't be in your Roku purchase history.
Could someone else on my Roku have bought it?
Yes. Roku lists a family member or roommate, and a different Roku account or email, among the causes.
