Why it shows up like this
Unreviewed registry note: A line item on your card statement reading DBT LABS* DBT CLOUD represents a recurring charge for a dbt Cloud Data Transformation Platform Subscription, provided by dbt Labs, Inc. Formerly known as Fishtown Analytics, dbt Labs develops orchestration and data transformation software that lets analytics engineers build and test data pipelines inside warehouses like Snowflake and Databricks. If you see DBT LABS* DBT CLOUD or DBT LABS INC, someone on your engineering staff maintains a paid dbt Cloud organization.
Unreviewed registry note: This charge typically stems from the self-service Team plan, which bills at a baseline rate of $100 per developer seat per month. Accounts frequently experience unexpected charges when an engineer upgrades beyond the single-seat free Developer tier, or when additional team members accept invitations that automatically add billable developer seats. In addition, organizations with automated job schedules that exceed monthly hosted run limits can incur usage-based overage fees.
Unreviewed registry note: To review these charges or adjust user seats, sign in to your organization dashboard at cloud.getdbt.com and open the Billing tab under Account Settings. Account owners can review past PDF invoices or downgrade the organization back to the free Developer plan to stop ongoing charges. If you believe your card details were used without authorization, reach out to dbt Labs support to verify the active workspace.
