Kurzantwort
IC* INSTACART is a grocery delivery order. Totals routinely differ from checkout because of substitutions, weighted items, and post-delivery adjustments — plus Instacart+ renews as its own monthly charge.
Warum dieser Text erscheint
Instacart authorizes an estimate at checkout, then charges the real total after shopping — replacements, out-of-stocks, and per-pound items all move the number. A temporary authorization hold higher than the final total often shows alongside, which reads like a double charge.

Why are there two Instacart charges for one order?
One is the pre-shopping authorization hold, one the final total. The hold disappears on its own — if both post as final, contact Instacart support.
Dispute Rights & Fraud Prevention
If you suspect this charge is fraudulent or billing in error, you have strict federal rights protecting your account.
Always review your statement carefully and take action within 60 days.
What should I do if I don't recognize this charge?
First, check with family members or anyone authorized on your account. If the charge remains unrecognized, contact your bank immediately to report it. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA), you have 60 days from the statement date to dispute unauthorized credit card charges.
How long does it take for a disputed charge to be removed?
Once you file a dispute, your bank must acknowledge it within 30 days and resolve it within two billing cycles (not exceeding 90 days). During this time, the disputed amount is usually placed on a provisional hold, meaning you do not have to pay it.
