The pending charge will disappear 24 to 48 hours after your order ships. There's no need to call or update anything online.

Why are there multiple charges on my card for a single order?

When you place an order, Chewy contacts the bank that issued your card to confirm your account and reserve funds for your purchase. You’ll see a pending charge, also called an authorization charge, in your bank or credit card account. We only charge your payment method when your items ship. 

Your bank will reserve the funds in your account until your items ship or the authorization expires. Depending on your bank’s policy, you may see an authorization charge even for a cancelled order. If your items don’t ship, the authorization charge will expire. Some banks may take up to 30 days to remove authorization charges from your account. We charge your payment method as your items ship. If your items have shipped in more than one box, you may see multiple charges on your payment method: 

  • One authorization charge for the grand total of your order 
  • Separate, final charges for each shipped box 

Rest assured; you’ll only be charged for shipped items. 

How do I add a payment method? 

To pay with a credit or debit card, go to Payment Methods and click the blue hyperlink that says, “Add a New Credit or Debit Card.” Fill in the required information exactly as it appears on the card and click the button that says, “Save Payment Method.” You can also add or change any payment methods we accept at Checkout. 

Why is my credit card not working?

If you’re having trouble with your credit card, make sure the billing address matches the address on file with your credit card and/or bank. Enter the name and credit card number exactly the way you see it on the card. Before you place your order, add the CVV, a 3-digit code found on the back of your card. If you’re using an American Express Card, use the four-digit ROI number from the front of the card. Cards with US-based billing addresses cannot be accepted.
