The short answer
The registry records Coding Platform Subscription as a possible interpretation of DATACAMP * SUBSCRIPTION. This descriptor-to-company association has not passed claim-level evidence review. Compare the exact line, amount and posted status with your own receipt or account activity; the name alone cannot confirm the merchant or whether you authorized the payment.

Why am I being billed by DataCamp?
Unreviewed registry note: A line item showing DATACAMP * SUBSCRIPTION represents a recurring payment for a Coding Platform Subscription from DataCamp Inc. DataCamp offers browser-based training in data science and Python programming. When your statement lists DATACAMP * SUBSCRIPTION or DATACAMP INC, a card linked to your household or workplace was used to purchase a monthly or annual learner membership.
Unreviewed registry note: Most cardholders see this charge because of an annual auto-renewal. DataCamp heavily promotes yearly plans that offer substantial discounts compared to monthly billing. Once that initial twelve-month term concludes, the platform bills the renewal automatically at the regular prevailing rate, often between $149 and $300. Another common cause is a monthly membership that was activated for a specific course and left running in the background.
Why is the charge so large?
Unreviewed registry note: DataCamp heavily promotes annual billing. If you signed up during a promotional period a year ago, you may have just been hit with the full-price annual renewal fee.
