Why does this charge appear?

When Duolingo processes subscription payments for its Duolingo Plus membership, the billing system truncates the merchant name to fit within the character limits imposed by card networks like Visa and Mastercard, resulting in "DUOLINGO*" appearing on your statement rather than the full "Duolingo Plus" name. The asterisk following DUOLINGO is a common formatting convention used by payment processors to separate the merchant name from additional descriptor information, such as a transaction ID or service type, though in this case the remainder is often dropped entirely due to space constraints. If you see a recurring charge of around $6.99 each month labeled DUOLINGO* on your bank statement, it is almost certainly your active Duolingo Plus language learning subscription being billed automatically.

What should you do?

1

Confirm your Duolingo Plus subscription

Log into your account at duolingo.com and navigate to your profile settings to verify that you have an active Duolingo Plus subscription. The DUOLINGO* charge on your statement corresponds to this premium language learning plan, so confirming your subscription status will clarify whether the billing is expected.

2

Check your Duolingo Plus billing date and amount

Inside your Duolingo account settings, review your subscription billing history to make sure the charge amount and date match what appears on your bank statement under DUOLINGO*. Duolingo Plus is billed on a recurring cycle, so comparing these details will confirm the charge is accurate and not a duplicate or error.

3

Manage or cancel your Duolingo Plus plan if needed

If you no longer wish to continue paying for Duolingo Plus, visit duolingo.com/settings/subscription to cancel or modify your plan before the next billing cycle. Canceling here ensures you won't see future DUOLINGO* charges on your bank statement while still allowing you to use any remaining premium access you've already paid for.

4

Contact Duolingo support for billing questions

If the DUOLINGO* charge amount looks incorrect or you do not recognize the subscription at all, reach out to Duolingo's customer support team directly through duolingo.com to report the issue. They can provide a detailed breakdown of your Duolingo Plus billing and help resolve any discrepancies before you consider escalating to your bank.
