Which Apple account are you referring to? Your Apple Account (formerly known as Apple ID), your Apple Card Mastercard credit card, your Apple Cash account? Where is this charge showing up? Your bank statement, a credit card statement? Has the charge actually appeared yet or did you just get a notification? A website cannot charge anything without your interaction unless it has your credentials, period. Use the link below to find what the charge was for.

You need to find the one that costs what you were charged for or one you were not expecting. It May be an App or a subscription. If other's are charges you know and understand, then one for $1, that you did not expect or know about would be the one that is being charged.


Which one there is the one that costs $1, that you may not have expected?


Also, it may be an authorization hold, if you recently updated your payment method. That should reversed shortly if it is.
