Why it shows up like this
Unreviewed registry note: The bank statement descriptor `SCALEWAY* CLOUD` indicates a cloud hosting and infrastructure payment made to Scaleway S.A.S., a prominent European cloud computing provider serving developers and modern web enterprises. This transaction covers metered virtual compute instances, dedicated bare-metal servers, Kubernetes clusters, and S3-compatible object storage hosted across data centers in Paris, Amsterdam, and Warsaw.
Unreviewed registry note: This charge typically appears on your credit card statement because you maintained active cloud resources or reached the scheduled monthly billing cycle cutoff. Scaleway automatically charges the payment method linked to your account based on precise server runtime hours, network bandwidth consumption, and stored data volumes accumulated during the previous calendar month.

- Unreviewed registry note: A developer launched cloud instances in Paris, Amsterdam, or Warsaw data centers.
