- Someone else in the household. A partner or family member on a shared card is the most common explanation for a "mystery" recurring charge.
- A free trial that converted. Monarch Money's own sign-up flow involves a trial — the first charge is often the trial quietly ending. Set a trial reminder next time.
- A price you don't remember agreeing to. Subscriptions creep upward quietly. If the amount looks bigger than you remember, it probably is — see which services raised prices.
- Charged twice, or charged after you cancelled. Both are disputable. Contact Monarch Money first if you have an account; otherwise go straight to your bank — here's exactly how to dispute a charge.

Why did Monarch Money charge me after a free trial?
Free trials convert to a paid subscription automatically unless cancelled before the trial ends — the first charge is the trial ending, not an error. You keep full access through the end of your current billing period. Paid directly (not through an app store)? Monarch's money-back guarantee refunds the unused time any time after purchase, no questions asked, via the refund request form in Billing Settings — App Store subscriptions are excluded from this guarantee, since Apple handles those refunds. On the 7-day free trial? Cancel at least 24 hours before it ends or you'll be billed. Charged after cancelling, or can't get in to cancel? Email support@monarch.com.
