About Arlo Technologies

Arlo Technologies is a smart home security company based in San Jose, California, best known for its wireless security cameras, floodlight cameras, and video doorbells. Their products connect to Wi‑Fi and are controlled through the Arlo app or web portal, offering features like HD or 4K video, two‑way audio, motion detection, night vision, and cloud recording. In addition to hardware, Arlo sells subscription services such as Arlo Secure, which adds cloud video storage, advanced object detection, and rich notifications, and in some regions supplemental services like Arlo Safe.

An Arlo charge on your bank or card statement is most commonly related to a subscription such as Arlo Secure, billed monthly or annually. You may also see a charge for a one‑time hardware purchase made on arlo.com or in the Arlo app, an extended warranty plan, or—in some cases—a small temporary authorization hold when you add or update a payment method. Charges may also appear via third‑party billing (Apple App Store, Google Play, PayPal, or your mobile carrier) if you subscribed through those platforms, and the descriptor may include “ARLO,” “ARLO TECHNOLOGIES,” or similar wording.

If you’re unsure about an Arlo charge, first sign in to your Arlo account at arlo.com or through the Arlo app and review your Subscription, Order History, or Billing sections for matching amounts and dates. Check whether you have multiple cameras or locations on one plan, or if another family member set up service using your card. For subscriptions started via Apple or Google, review your subscriptions in the App Store or Google Play. If you still can’t identify the charge, visit support.arlo.com to access chat and support options, or use in‑app support if you have a paid plan; they can look up charges by email, card details, or order number and help with cancellations, refunds when eligible, and general billing issues.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of Arlo charges typically appear on my bank or card statement?

Most people see Arlo charges for Arlo Secure subscriptions (monthly or annual) linked to one or more cameras or doorbells. You might also see one‑time charges for hardware purchased from arlo.com (cameras, doorbells, base stations, accessories) or extended warranty plans. If you recently updated your payment method, a small temporary authorization may also appear; this should disappear automatically within a few business days.

What are the current Arlo Secure subscription prices and common charge amounts?

In many regions, Arlo Secure is offered as a per‑camera plan and a multi‑camera plan. In the U.S., typical pricing has been around a single‑camera plan and a higher‑tier multi‑camera plan that covers multiple devices in one location, with discounts for annual billing; exact prices can change and vary by country, tax, and currency. Your statement may therefore show recurring Arlo charges in the range of roughly $5–$20 USD per month (or the local equivalent), depending on the plan, number of cameras, and whether you pay monthly or yearly. For the most accurate, current pricing, sign in to your Arlo account and open the Subscription or Settings > Subscription section.

Why do I see a small $0, $1, or low‑value Arlo charge or ‘pending’ amount?

Arlo (or the app store you used) may place a small temporary authorization hold when you add or update a credit/debit card or start a free trial. This isn’t a real charge and typically appears as $0, $1, or a small local‑currency amount, then drops off automatically within a few days. If the amount remains posted after a week, contact your bank and Arlo Support with the transaction date and last four digits of the card so they can review it.

How do I cancel or change my Arlo Secure subscription to stop future charges?

To cancel, open the Arlo app or go to my.arlo.com, sign in, and navigate to Settings > Subscription (or Settings > Account > Subscription). Select your current plan, choose Cancel Subscription, and follow the prompts; your service usually continues until the end of the current billing period, and you won’t be billed again after that date. If you subscribed through Apple’s App Store or Google Play, you must cancel directly in your Apple ID or Google Play subscriptions, not on arlo.com. You can also change between monthly and annual billing or adjust how many cameras/locations are covered from the same Subscription screen.

Why was I charged by Arlo after I thought I cancelled my subscription?

Arlo bills at the start of each billing cycle, and cancellation generally takes effect at the next renewal date, not immediately. If you cancelled after the renewal processed, your subscription stays active through the end of the paid period and Arlo normally does not provide partial refunds for unused time. Confirm your next billing date and cancellation status in Settings > Subscription in the Arlo app or web portal, and check if you might have multiple accounts or app‑store‑based subscriptions.

How can I request a refund for an Arlo charge I don’t recognize or for a subscription I no longer want?

First, log into your Arlo account (or the app store account you used) and verify which plan or purchase matches the charge. If you bought a subscription directly from Arlo, go to support.arlo.com or use in‑app support to contact billing; provide your account email, approximate charge date, amount, and the last four digits of the card. Refunds for unused time or unwanted renewals are evaluated under Arlo’s current refund policy and are not guaranteed, especially after a cycle has already started. If you subscribed via Apple or Google, refunds must be requested through Apple or Google’s own refund process, as Arlo cannot refund those transactions directly.

How do I contact Arlo about a billing or charge issue?

Visit support.arlo.com and sign in with your Arlo account to access tailored support options, including virtual assistant, live chat, and (for many paid plans) phone support. You can also reach support through the Arlo app by going to Settings > Support or Help. Have ready your account email, approximate charge dates and amounts, and any screenshots of the transaction from your bank; this helps Arlo quickly locate and explain the charge.

I don’t have any Arlo cameras—why am I seeing an Arlo charge on my statement?

First confirm with household members whether anyone recently purchased an Arlo device, started a trial, or subscribed using your card or a shared app‑store account. If no one recognizes the charge, check whether your card might be saved in a family member’s Apple ID, Google account, PayPal, or carrier billing profile that was used to start an Arlo Secure trial. Then contact Arlo Support with the transaction details so they can search for an account linked to your card; if they cannot find one or confirm it’s unauthorized, dispute the charge with your bank or card issuer to secure your account.
