En résumé
This is a billing charge from WHMCS, a popular web hosting management and billing automation platform. You or a company you host your website with likely uses WHMCS for client management and invoicing, and the payment was processed through PayPal.
Why am I seeing this charge?
WHMCS stands for Web Host Manager Complete Solution. It is an all-in-one client management, billing, and support platform heavily used by web hosting companies, domain registrars, and IT service providers.
If you see PAYPAL*WHMCS on your bank or credit card statement, it usually means you have purchased a WHMCS software license directly, or you are paying a web hosting provider that uses WHMCS as their billing portal and the charge passed through with the software's name instead of your specific host's name.
I don't host websites. Why did I get charged?
You might be paying for a personal website, domain name registration, or a VPS (Virtual Private Server) from a smaller hosting company. Many independent hosting providers use WHMCS to handle their billing, which sometimes results in the platform's name appearing on your statement.
How do I cancel a WHMCS subscription?
If you hold a direct license with WHMCS, log into your WHMCS client area at www.whmcs.com to manage or cancel your license. If the charge is from a third-party host using WHMCS, you need to identify that hosting provider and cancel directly through their specific client portal.
Répertoire indépendant non affilié à WHMCS. Les libellés varient selon les banques.
