Question 1

What is the AMAZON ES* charge on my bank statement?

Accepted Answer

The AMAZON ES* charge is a legitimate transaction from Amazon Spain, the Spanish version of the Amazon marketplace. This descriptor appears on your bank statement whenever you make a purchase or have an active subscription through amazon.es. The amount will vary depending on what you ordered or which subscription service you are paying for.

Question 2

I don't remember buying anything from Amazon Spain — could this charge be fraud?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. The AMAZON ES* descriptor is used by Amazon Spain for a variety of transactions including one-time purchases, Prime memberships, Kindle Unlimited, Audible, or other Amazon subscription services billed through the Spanish platform. Check your Amazon account order history and any active subscriptions to identify the charge. If you still cannot match it to any purchase, contact Amazon customer support or your bank to dispute it.

Question 3

How do I cancel a subscription that is causing the recurring AMAZON ES* charge?

Accepted Answer

To cancel a subscription tied to the AMAZON ES* charge, visit amazon.es/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201909600 where you can manage or cancel your Amazon Spain subscriptions including Prime and other services. Log in with the Amazon account associated with the charge, navigate to your subscriptions and memberships, and cancel the one you no longer want to stop future charges.

Question 4

Why does my statement show AMAZON ES* instead of just Amazon?

Accepted Answer

The AMAZON ES* label specifically identifies that the transaction was processed through Amazon Spain, as opposed to Amazon UK, Amazon Germany, or another regional Amazon platform. The ES stands for España, the country code for Spain. This distinction helps identify which regional Amazon storefront handled your purchase, which can be useful if you have accounts on multiple Amazon platforms or if you made a cross-border purchase routed through the Spanish marketplace.
