The short answer
The registry records TriMet (Hop Fastpass) as a possible interpretation of HOP* TriMet. 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.

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.
Why am I seeing HOP* TriMet on my statement?
Unreviewed registry note: A charge starting with "HOP*" appears when you use the Hop Fastpass transit system. You might see this if you tapped a contactless credit/debit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay directly on a green Hop reader to board a TriMet bus, MAX light rail, WES commuter rail, or Portland Streetcar.
Unreviewed registry note: You will also see this charge if you reloaded a physical or virtual Hop card online, via the Hop mobile app, or if an "Auto-Load" rule was triggered when your card's balance dropped below a certain threshold.
Unrecognized or accidental charges
Unreviewed registry note: If you see a "pending" charge of a small amount (like $0.00 or $0.10), it is a temporary authorization hold to ensure your card is active. It will clear shortly.
Unreviewed registry note: Accidental charges can happen if you lean against a reader with your purse or wallet, or if you tap your wallet to use your Hop card but the reader detects a different credit card instead (Card Clash).
