Why it shows up like this
Unreviewed registry note: A billing entry marked GITBOOK* DOCS TEAM originates from GitBook SAS, the software company behind the GitBook documentation platform. This charge corresponds to a GitBook Technical Documentation Platform Subscription, an online service used by software developers and product teams to host public technical documentation or private internal knowledge bases. Organizations routinely link GitBook to code repositories to sync API references and publish customer help centers.
Unreviewed registry note: The transaction typically represents a recurring monthly or annual subscription renewal. GitBook bills organizations based on per-user seat pricing, typically ranging from roughly $6.70 to $12.50 per user each month on Plus or Pro plans, alongside premium features like custom domains and visitor authentication. If a team member invited additional collaborators to an existing workspace or if your organization opted for an annual billing commitment, the billed amount will adjust accordingly.
Unreviewed registry note: To review your organization's charges, sign in to your administrative account at app.gitbook.com and navigate to Organization Settings > Billing. Here workspace administrators can review active user seats and downgrade to the free tier to prevent future recurring renewals. If nobody at your company recalls creating a GitBook documentation workspace, check with your engineering team. In cases where card details were compromised, contact your issuing bank to dispute the transaction and block unauthorized charges.
