1. How Overpowered.gg appears on your bank statement

Depending on your region, bank, or payment method, charges from our platform may appear under one of our official billing descriptors:

These are all correct and represent the same purchase.

You may also see slight variations such as:

🔹 Important:

Banks sometimes abbreviate, shorten, or reformat merchant names.
This means your statement might not match the name exactly, and that’s perfectly normal.

Small differences do not indicate fraud — they simply depend on how your bank displays online purchases.

2. If you used Stripe (Credit/Debit Cards)

Your statement may show:

Banks in different countries format Stripe charges differently.

3. If you used PIX (Brazil)

PIX transactions typically appear as:

  • PIX • Overpowered.gg

  • PIX • Mercado Pago / Intermediador

  • Pagamento PIX – [nome do provedor]

Even when the layout changes by bank, it will always reference PIX and the payment provider linked to your transaction.

4. If you paid with Crypto (Coinbase Commerce)

Crypto transactions do not list the merchant name because banks are not involved.

Instead, your bank or wallet will show:

  • Crypto withdrawal

  • Blockchain network fee

  • Outgoing transfer

This is expected and normal.

5. If you used Apple Pay or Google Pay

Digital wallets may replace the merchant name with their own descriptor:

This is standard behavior for wallet-based payments.

6. Why you may see two charges

This usually happens when your bank places a temporary authorization on your card.

You may see:

  • 1 actual charge, and

  • 1 pending amount (authorization)

The pending one automatically disappears — it is not a real charge.

Most banks clear pending transactions within a few hours, but some may take 1–3 business days.

7. Refunds: why they may look strange

Refunds can appear differently depending on the bank:

  • Some remove the original charge immediately

  • Some show a separate refund credit

  • Some only display refunds on the next monthly statement

Typical refund times:

  • Stripe: 3–10 business days (depends on the bank)

  • PIX: usually instant

  • Crypto: depends on blockchain processing

8. Why the amount might not match exactly

Amounts may vary slightly due to:

  • Bank currency conversion

  • International fees or taxes charged by your bank (never by OP)

  • Exchange rate at the moment of capture

  • Rounding differences between currencies

All of these are normal and outside of our control.

9. If your statement shows a name you don’t recognize

Stay calm — banks commonly shorten, abbreviate, or rename descriptors for online transactions.
