About Amato's Liquor Mart

Amato’s Liquor Mart is a long‑standing independent liquor store located in Leichhardt, in Sydney’s Inner West. Known for its strong Italian heritage, the store specializes in Italian and European wines, imported beers, aperitifs, amari, liqueurs and a wide range of premium spirits, alongside Australian and international labels. In addition to alcohol, Amato’s also sells selected gourmet foods such as olive oils, specialty vinegars, pasta, sauces and delicatessen items, making it a popular destination for both everyday purchases and special‑occasion entertaining. Customers can shop in‑store or via their website at amatos.com.au for delivery within Australia where available.

A charge from Amato’s Liquor Mart typically appears on your bank or card statement after you make a purchase in their Leichhardt store or place an order online through amatos.com.au. The description may look like “AMATOS LIQUOR MART,” “AMATOS LEICHHARDT,” or a similar variation, and the amount will usually match your receipt for alcohol, gourmet foods, gift items or hampers. You may also see a charge if you placed a phone order (for example, for a mixed case of wine or corporate gifts) or if an online order was split into multiple shipments, in which case you might see more than one transaction. Some banks may first display a temporary “pending” or “authorization” amount when you place an order, which later finalizes to the exact total.

If you don’t recognize a charge from Amato’s Liquor Mart, start by checking recent in‑store receipts, email order confirmations from amatos.com.au and any online grocery or gift orders that may have been fulfilled by them. Compare the date and amount on your statement to your receipts, and ask family members or colleagues with access to the same card whether they made a purchase. For questions or to dispute a charge, contact Amato’s directly using the phone number or contact form listed on amatos.com.au, providing the transaction date, amount and the name on the card so they can look up the sale. If you suspect fraud and Amato’s cannot locate a matching transaction, contact your bank or card issuer promptly to report the issue and request a card replacement if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did I get a charge from Amato’s Liquor Mart on my card?

This charge usually appears when you’ve made a purchase in their Leichhardt store or placed an order via amatos.com.au for wine, beer, spirits or gourmet food. The description may appear as “AMATOS LIQUOR MART,” “AMATOS LEICHHARDT,” or something similar, depending on your bank. Review recent in‑store receipts and email order confirmations around the transaction date to match the amount.

What are typical amounts I might see charged by Amato’s Liquor Mart?

Amounts can range from smaller purchases (around AU$20–AU$60) for a bottle or two, up to higher totals (AU$100 and above) for mixed cases of wine, spirits or gourmet hampers. Online orders that include multiple bottles, premium spirits or gift packs often result in larger charges once shipping is added. Always compare the total on your receipt or order confirmation—including delivery fees—to the amount shown on your statement.

Why do I see a pending or duplicated Amato’s Liquor Mart charge?

When you pay by card, your bank may first place a temporary authorization hold to verify funds, which can appear as a pending Amato’s Liquor Mart transaction. Once the payment is finalized, the pending amount should drop off, leaving only the settled charge. This is common with online orders, higher‑value in‑store purchases or when a card is inserted or tapped more than once; pending holds usually clear within a few business days.

How can I get a copy of my receipt or invoice from Amato’s Liquor Mart?

For in‑store purchases, you can return to the store with the card used and approximate date and time of purchase, and staff may be able to reprint or look up a receipt. For online orders, search your email inbox (including spam/junk folders) for a confirmation or tax invoice from amatos.com.au. If you can’t find it, use the contact details on their website and provide your name, order date, approximate amount and delivery address so they can locate your order.

How do refunds or returns work for Amato’s Liquor Mart purchases?

Refunds are handled in line with Australian consumer law and Amato’s own store policies. If you received damaged, faulty or incorrect items, contact the store or use the contact form on amatos.com.au as soon as possible with photos and your receipt or order number. Approved refunds are generally processed back to the original payment method, though timing for the credit to appear depends on your bank. Some change‑of‑mind returns may not be accepted, especially for alcohol that has been opened or not stored properly.

Can I cancel or change an online order I placed with Amato’s Liquor Mart?

If your order has not yet been packed or dispatched, Amato’s may be able to cancel or amend it. Contact them promptly using the phone number or email listed on amatos.com.au, and include your order number and details of the change you need. Once an order has shipped, changes and cancellations are usually not possible, and you may need to follow their returns or refund process instead.

Why is there more than one Amato’s Liquor Mart charge on the same day?

Multiple charges can occur if you made more than one transaction in‑store (for example, separate purchases at the bottle shop and deli sections) or if your online order was split into several payments due to stock availability or shipping adjustments. It can also happen if an initial card attempt was declined and then successfully processed on a second try, leaving a temporary pending hold plus the final charge. Check your receipts and online order history to see if they line up with the separate amounts.

How do I contact Amato’s Liquor Mart about a charge I don’t recognize?

Visit amatos.com.au and go to their Contact or About page to find the current phone number and email or contact form. When you reach out, provide your full name, the last four digits of the card, the exact transaction date, amount and any reference code from your bank statement so they can search their sales records. If Amato’s cannot find a matching transaction or confirms it was not processed by them, contact your bank immediately to report potential unauthorized use of your card.
