What this variant means
This registry groups this wording with TARGET.COM *; check the identity evidence before treating it as the same merchant.
TARGET.COM * points to Target's website, so this is most likely a Target.com or Target app order, including Drive Up, Order Pickup, Same Day Delivery or shipped orders. Target's help pages do not document this exact statement text or what the asterisk means, so confirm it with your records. Open Orders in your Target account and compare the date and amount; one order can post as several charges.

How Target charges an online order
Target's help center says a pending authorization appears on your online statement when you place an order. Items are then charged as they are picked and held for Drive Up or Order Pickup, picked by your shopper for Same Day Delivery, or shipped, so one order total may be split across multiple charges.
Target describes the authorization hold as a temporary reservation of funds for the estimated order total, not an actual charge. It stays until it expires, the card issuer removes it, or the authorization is settled, and depending on your bank it can take a few days to disappear after an item ships. Target says you may see a hold for the estimated total, posted charges for shipped items and new holds for items not yet shipped, all at once.
For Same Day Delivery, Target says the hold may exceed the subtotal to allow for substitutions and special requests, and you are charged only for items received. PayPal holds can be extended up to 365 days, renewing every 30 days. Items sold by a Target Plus Partner are processed as a separate order, and Target says final Partner charges post under the merchant ID Target Plus rather than under Target.
Why do I see several Target charges for one order?
Target says holds and charges can be requested per item when an order ships in several shipments or uses different delivery methods, and Target Plus Partner items are a separate order. Match each amount to the items in your order details.
I canceled an item. Why is money still held?
Target says you are not charged for a canceled item, but your card may show a temporary authorization hold until your bank releases it. Target advises contacting your card-issuing bank for help removing a hold.

Where to find the matching order
Sign in to your Target account on Target.com or open the Target app and go to Orders or Purchase history. Target says online transactions remain available for approximately two years, and each order offers receipts and detailed invoices you can compare with the bank entry.
Target also shows in-store purchases under an In-store toggle, but only when your Wallet barcode was scanned, a card saved in your account was swiped, or the phone number linked to your Target Circle account was entered at checkout. Those records are available for approximately one year. Target notes that if others have access to card numbers saved in your account, their in-store purchases can appear in your history too. For help, Target lists Guest Relations at 1-800-440-0680.

Canceling items or fixing an order
This descriptor does not by itself indicate a subscription. To stop an order, Target says you can select the order in your account and choose Cancel items or Request cancellation, an option that appears only for items not yet processed for shipping. You will receive an email confirming the cancellation status.
For a damaged, defective or missing item, Target describes a Fix an issue option in Purchase history for eligible items. Refunds are issued to the original payment method in most cases, and purchases made with a Target GiftCard are credited back as a new Target eGiftCard.

If the order is not yours
If you receive unfamiliar order information or suspect your details were compromised, Target advises reviewing all Target.com orders and saved payment information and contacting your financial institution about any unidentified charges. It lists Target.com Guest Services at 1-800-591-3869 for help disabling a Target.com account.
The CFPB recommends reporting a suspected fraudulent card transaction to the card provider right away and keeping copies of letters and notes of follow-up calls. This page cannot decide whether a particular charge was authorized.

Inspected Target help articles on when cards are charged, pre-authorization holds, receipts and purchase history, cancellation and order issues. Removed the unsupported claims that the asterisk is a processor separator, that in-store purchases show TARGET.COM *, the card-testing fraud verdict, the fraudRisk boilerplate, generic subscription cancel steps, the invented 14 to 30 day window and the mislabeled card-support phone. Alias notes now state they are unverified.
