About Asbury Park Press

Asbury Park Press is a long‑running regional news outlet that covers local, state, and national news with a focus on New Jersey communities. Its primary digital presence is through the domain app.com, where it offers breaking news, sports, politics, crime, lifestyle, and opinion coverage, often supplemented by photos, video, and investigative reporting. The paper is part of the USA TODAY Network operated by Gannett Co., Inc., and combines local journalism with access to national content.

A charge labeled “App.com” on your card statement is most likely related to a digital or print‑plus‑digital subscription to Asbury Park Press, a renewal of that subscription, or a promotional trial that converted to a paid plan. Many newspapers bill on a recurring basis (monthly, quarterly, or annually), and charges may appear under the website brand (app.com) rather than the full newspaper name. In some cases, there may also be one‑time charges for special offers, premium content, or upgrades between subscription tiers.

If you’re unsure about a charge, start by signing into your account on app.com using the email address that may have been used to subscribe and review your subscription details and billing history. You can also search your email for order confirmations or renewal notices from Asbury Park Press or app.com. If you still have questions, contact their customer service or subscription support (often listed under “Help,” “Account,” or “Subscriptions” on the site) and provide the date, amount, and last four digits of the card that was charged. If you cannot locate an account and suspect fraud, you should contact your card issuer to dispute the charge and request a new card number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from “App.com” on my credit or debit card?

A charge from “App.com” is typically tied to an Asbury Park Press subscription, most often a digital or print‑plus‑digital plan billed through their website at app.com. It may be a recurring renewal, a promotional offer that auto‑renewed, or an upgrade between subscription tiers.

How can I confirm which Asbury Park Press subscription is being billed to my card?

Log in to app.com with the email address you may have used for the subscription, then go to your account or subscription settings to view active plans and billing history. You can also search your email inbox for receipts or confirmations from Asbury Park Press or app.com that list the last four digits of the card and the billing schedule.

How do I cancel my Asbury Park Press / App.com subscription to stop future charges?

After signing into app.com, navigate to your account or subscription management section and look for options such as “Manage Subscription,” “Cancel,” or “Pause.” Follow the prompts to complete cancellation. If online cancellation isn’t available for your plan, use the listed customer service phone number or chat to request cancellation and ask for written confirmation by email.

I cancelled my App.com subscription—why was I charged again?

Newspaper and digital subscriptions usually bill at the start of each billing period. If you cancelled after a new cycle began, your subscription may remain active until the end of that period, and the charge you see is for that full term. Check your account on app.com for your official cancellation date and next billing date, and contact support if the dates don’t match what you expected.

What are common amounts for App.com / Asbury Park Press charges?

Common charges are monthly or annual subscription fees, which can vary based on introductory promotions, digital‑only vs. print‑plus‑digital access, and any add‑on features. If an amount seems unfamiliar, compare it against current or historical subscription pricing listed in your account or in past confirmation emails.

Can I get a refund for an App.com charge I didn’t expect?

Refunds are handled case by case. Contact Asbury Park Press customer service with your account details, the transaction date, and amount. Explain whether you forgot to cancel, were unaware of an auto‑renewal, or believe the charge is in error. They may offer a partial or full refund or extend service instead, depending on their current refund policies.

How do I reach Asbury Park Press / App.com customer support about a billing question?

Go to app.com and look for links such as “Help,” “Customer Service,” or “Manage Subscription.” There you’ll typically find a phone number, email address, and/or online contact form or chat for subscription and billing issues. Have your account email, mailing address (if you get print delivery), and the last four digits of your card ready when you contact them.

What should I do if I don’t recognize the App.com charge and can’t find any subscription?

First, ask family members or anyone who shares your devices or card if they signed up for an Asbury Park Press subscription. If no one recognizes it and you can’t locate an account on app.com using your email addresses, contact your card issuer to report the transaction as unauthorized. They can investigate, help you dispute the charge, and issue a new card if necessary.
