Angel Studios is an entertainment company and streaming platform that focuses on family‑friendly and faith‑oriented movies and series. Through its website and mobile apps, viewers can watch shows, rent or buy films, purchase theater tickets, and support new projects using a crowdfunded "Pay It Forward" model. The company also runs a membership program (often referred to as the Angel Guild) and sells related merchandise through online stores.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/5578958819223-How-Do-You-Have-My-Billing-Information))
A charge with the descriptor simply reading “ANGEL” on your card is often related to Angel Studios activity such as paying for a Guild membership or subscription, renting or purchasing digital content, donating via Pay It Forward, buying theater tickets, or ordering merchandise through their online store. Payments are typically processed through third‑party processors like Stripe for Pay It Forward and Shopify for merchandise, so you may see a combination of their name and Angel on your statement depending on the processor and region.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/5578958819223-How-Do-You-Have-My-Billing-Information))
If you’re unsure about a charge, log into your Angel account at angel.com or through the Angel mobile app and review your Orders, Pay It Forward history, Guild membership, and theater ticket purchases. Confirm the date and amount of the transaction against your bank statement. If something still doesn’t look right, you can contact Angel support via their online help center at support.angel.com or the contact links in the app, and your bank can also help investigate or dispute unfamiliar charges. Keeping emails/receipts from Angel and checking whether family members use the app on shared cards can also help explain unexpected entries.

What types of charges from Angel Studios can show up as just “ANGEL” on my card statement?
Charges labeled “ANGEL” may relate to an Angel Guild membership charge, a Pay It Forward contribution, a digital purchase or rental in the Angel app, theater ticket purchases managed through Angel, or merchandise orders from their online store. Check your Angel account’s billing or orders history for activity on the same date and amount as the statement entry.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/5578958819223-How-Do-You-Have-My-Billing-Information))
How can I see exactly what I was billed for by Angel Studios?
Sign in at angel.com/account or open the Angel mobile app and go to your account or billing section to review Guild membership status, Pay It Forward contributions, theater tickets, and order history. Each entry will show the date and amount so you can match it to the charge on your bank or card statement.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/22983560760215-How-Do-I-Change-My-Payment-Information?utm_source=openai))
Does Angel Studios have recurring subscription or membership charges?
Yes. If you joined the Angel Guild or any recurring Pay It Forward contribution, you will be charged automatically at the interval you selected (typically monthly). These recurring payments can appear as “ANGEL” or a similar descriptor on your credit or debit card statement until you cancel them in your account or through the app store where you subscribed.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/5578958819223-How-Do-You-Have-My-Billing-Information))
How do I cancel my Angel Guild membership or stop a recurring Angel Studios payment?
To cancel a Guild membership or recurring Pay It Forward payment started on angel.com, log into your account, go to your membership or billing settings, and follow the prompts to cancel or manage your plan. If you subscribed through an app store (Apple, Google, Roku, etc.), you must cancel through that store’s subscription settings to stop future charges.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/5578958819223-How-Do-You-Have-My-Billing-Information))
How can I update or change the credit card Angel Studios is billing?
You can update your card by logging into angel.com/account and editing your payment information in the billing or payment section. For subscriptions made through an app store, you must update the card in your Apple ID, Google Play, or other platform account settings because Angel Studios does not control those stored payment methods.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/5578958819223-How-Do-You-Have-My-Billing-Information))
Why do I see a small or temporary charge from ANGEL on my statement?
Angel’s payment processors, such as Stripe or Shopify, may place a small temporary authorization to verify your card when you start or update a payment method. These authorizations are not final charges and should drop off automatically after a few days; only the actual purchase or membership fee will remain.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/5578958819223-How-Do-You-Have-My-Billing-Information))
How do I request a refund for an Angel Studios charge I don’t recognize or am unhappy with?
First, verify the transaction in your Angel account and confirm that a family member didn’t make the purchase. If you still believe the charge is incorrect, contact Angel Studios support via support.angel.com or the Help section in the app and provide the charge amount, date, and last four digits of the card. If you can’t resolve it with them, you can also contact your bank or card issuer to dispute the transaction.([support.angel.com](https://support.angel.com/hc/en-us/articles/5578958819223-How-Do-You-Have-My-Billing-Information))
