What is the easy charge?

The billing descriptor easy on your bank or credit card statement indicates a food order and delivery transaction processed by easy. Specifically, this charge covers easy food delivery services, including restaurant meal purchases, online service fees, driver tips, or optional membership subscription renewals.

This charge appears on your financial statement because you placed an online food delivery order through their mobile application or website platform. Food delivery platforms charge your linked payment card immediately when an order is submitted or when a temporary authorization hold resolves into a final sale transaction.

To verify this transaction, open the app or website and review your past order history for matching dates and dollar amounts. If you do not recognize the order or suspect that your payment information was used without your authorization, contact your bank immediately to report the charge and request assistance through formal dispute channels. Please review your account history regularly to maintain complete financial oversight and prevent unauthorized billing.
