Why 23andMe appears on your bank statement

If you see a charge for 23ANDME* GENOMICS on your credit card or bank statement, it means you or someone in your household purchased a 23andMe DNA Testing & Membership service. 23andMe Holding Co. uses this billing descriptor for direct purchases on their website, including health and ancestry saliva collection kits. The initial kit price usually ranges from $99 to $229 depending on the tier you select at checkout.

Many customers forget about the recurring component of this service. If you see a $69 charge exactly one year after you registered your initial kit, you are being billed for the annual 23andMe+ Premium membership. This auto-renewal covers ongoing health risk reports and pharmacogenetics updates. You agreed to this subscription during the initial account setup, and 23andMe charges the card you left on file.

You can stop future charges by logging into your account at you.23andme.com. Go to your account settings, find the membership section, and disable the auto-renewal feature before your anniversary date. If you do not recognize the charge at all, ask your family members if they ordered an additional DNA kit or ancestry lab processing fee before disputing the transaction with your bank.
