Charged After Cancelling APClips

Purchases on APClips do not recur, so a repeating charge means something on your account is not a purchase. It is nearly always a creator store membership taken alongside a clip — and those sit in a completely different list from your order history, which is precisely why they run for months without anyone noticing.

What is actually happening on APClips

A smaller clip marketplace where purchases do not recur. A repeating charge is a creator store membership, and the shorter membership list makes it quicker to find than on the larger sites.

Look at memberships, not orders

Scrolling your purchase history will never find it, because a store membership is not a purchase. Open the memberships or subscriptions section specifically. Every entry there is a live rebill, and each one has to be stopped on its own.

Smaller marketplaces keep the memberships list well away from the purchase history, so a repeating charge is easier to spot on your statement than in the account.

Telling a purchase from a rebill

A purchase is a one-off at a seller-set price, so it is an odd amount on a single date. A store membership is a round amount on the same day each month. If the amounts repeat exactly and land on a regular cycle, you are looking at a membership whatever the purchase history says.

If the memberships list is empty

If nothing is subscribed and a charge still lands, check for a second account, and check whether the amount matches a clip you actually bought. Marketplace charges are irregular by nature, so a purchase you have forgotten looks far more like a mystery rebill than it should.

The evidence to keep

Whatever the cause turns out to be, keep three things: the cancellation confirmation with its date, a screenshot of the account page showing the subscription as inactive, and the full descriptor text from the statement. A chargeback is decided on documentation rather than on account, and a bank that can see a dated confirmation against an undated denial resolves it quickly. Raise it with the merchant or processor first — going straight to a chargeback can get the account closed and any content you still have access to along with it.

Where the cancellation should have happened

Nothing recurring to cancel on purchases; check for creator memberships if a charge repeats.

The charge that cannot come back

Every problem on this page exists because someone else holds a standing permission to take your money. A one-time payment does not have that shape: there is no mandate, no renewal date, no processor, and no second membership that can appear from a checkout you half-read. Selected Content is built that way — one payment, permanent access, unlimited downloads, new content every week, and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
