The short answer
The registry records Independent Online Course as a possible interpretation of TEACHABLE * COURSES. This descriptor-to-company association has not passed claim-level evidence review. 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.

Identifying the Teachable course you bought
Unreviewed registry note: When you see TEACHABLE * COURSES on your bank statement, it indicates a payment processed by Teachable, Inc. for an independent online course, coaching program, or digital membership. Because thousands of independent educators and creators host their digital schools on this platform, the statement descriptor rarely shows the instructor's personal brand name. Instead, transactions route through Teachable Payments, leaving cardholders wondering who actually charged their account.
Why is this a recurring charge?
Unreviewed registry note: Creators can sell access via one-time payments, monthly payment plans (e.g., 3 payments of $50), or ongoing membership subscriptions. A recurring charge means you selected a plan or membership.
