Resumen del cargo
This charge is from Expedia, a major online travel agency. The numerical suffix (like 1143) is an internal merchant routing code or transaction ID used by Expedia's payment gateway when processing prepaid hotel or package deals.
Why there are numbers attached to the charge
When you bundle a flight, hotel, and rental car, or book a 'Pay Now' rate on Expedia, the charge goes through Expedia's corporate payment systems rather than the individual vendors.
To track millions of global transactions, Expedia appends merchant terminal IDs or location codes (e.g., 1143, 7473, etc.) to the billing descriptor. While the numbers look suspicious or fraudulent to many consumers, it is standard corporate ledger formatting.
- Log into Expedia and go to the 'Trips' dashboard.
- Match the statement charge to a specific itinerary.
- If you booked a flight-only deal, the charge will normally come from the airline directly. This Expedia descriptor usually means a hotel or bundle.
