The short answer

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.
The notes below are unreviewed registry explanations, not confirmation of merchant identity, authorization or current policy. Claim-level source review is pending for this entry.
What is the Sprout Social charge?
Unreviewed registry note: A transaction listing the descriptor SPROUT SOCIAL indicates a business-to-business payment for social media management software provided by Sprout Social. This billing entry reflects a recurring subscription plan that allows organizations to schedule content, analyze customer engagement metrics, and monitor brand mentions across multiple social media networks from a centralized dashboard interface.
Unreviewed registry note: Marketing professionals and enterprise communications teams generate this charge when maintaining active software licenses for digital publishing tools. Payments process automatically on a monthly or annual billing cycle based on the selected tier. If you notice this merchant name on your business card statement, it confirms an active subscription authorized by someone within your company.
Subscription Tiers and Seats
Unreviewed registry note: These charges are typically high ($249+ per month) and are based on your subscription tier (Standard, Professional, Advanced) and the number of user 'seats' on the account.
Unreviewed registry note: Subscriptions auto-renew monthly or annually depending on your contract.
- Step 1 Unreviewed registry note: Check with your company's marketing, social media, or IT department to see who authorized the corporate software expense.
- Step 2 Unreviewed registry note: If authorized, log into the Sprout Social portal and review to Account and Settings > Billing & Plan for the invoice.
