What will the charge look like on my statement?
Your subscription is billed by Scribd, Inc. That's the billing name you’ll find on your bank or card statement.
To see what you've been charged and when, check your invoices and payment history. If a charge doesn't match a subscription you know about, here's how to track it down.
Can I add a backup payment method?
Yes, you can store more than one payment method on your account page. You can also change or remove which one we charge at any time. A backup card keeps your subscription running if your preferred method fails on renewal day.
If you have any questions or concerns when completing a purchase with Scribd or SlideShare, start a conversation with our virtual assistant.
