How do I prevent a brand or merchant from charging me again?

You can block brands that you've shopped with in the Current app. To block a brand that you've shopped with:

  1. Click on the most recent transaction from the merchant that you want to block.
  2. Tap Block Brand 

Once you take this action, the merchant will no longer be able to make any further charges to your card. If you wish to continue shopping with that merchant, you will need to unblock your card. 

If you’d like to block a popular brand from charging you in advance, like Uber or Amazon, in addition to contacting Current to stop the payment, you block them by following the steps below:  

  1. Tap Account
  2. Tap Blocked Brands near the bottom of the screen
  3. You can view your currently blocked brands or tap View Popular brands to view a list of brands that you can block
  4. Tap Block next to each brand you want to prevent from charging you 

To unblock a brand, head to Blocked Brands and tap Unblock, located next to the brand you'd like to continue shopping with. 

Note: Certain merchants may attempt to charge your card multiple times or use different point of sale (POS) systems to bypass being blocked. We recommend not only blocking a brand in the app, but also canceling any recurring subscriptions to minimize the possibility of the brand successfully processing charges.
