What is the WASHINGTON POST *DIGITAL charge?

Why The Washington Post Billed Your Card

When your card statement lists WASHINGTON POST *DIGITAL, it represents a recurring media fee charged by WP Company LLC for The Washington Post Digital News Subscription. The publishing company produces daily journalism, investigative reporting, and multimedia content accessible through web browsers and dedicated mobile news applications for subscribers worldwide.

Charges under this descriptor typically occur when an introductory promotional subscription period expires and automatically renews at standard annual or monthly rates. Because digital news accounts renew automatically by default, billing continues processing on linked credit cards every cycle until the user explicitly cancels the plan in their account settings.

To stop future renewals, log in to the newspaper website, open your account profile settings, and select the cancellation option before your next billing date. You can also review your digital receipt history or contact customer support by phone if you need help identifying the subscriber email address linked to the active account.

• Annual or monthly renewal of The Washington Post All-Access Digital subscription
• Automated transition from introductory promotional pricing to standard annual rate
• Amazon Prime subscriber promotional discount rate annual renewal

1. Check whether you or a household member recently activated a Washington Post subscription.
2. Sign in to washingtonpost.com and open Profile > Account Settings > Subscription.
