About Backdoorjobs.com
Backdoorjobs.com is a specialized job board and resource site focused on “short‑term job adventures” such as seasonal resort work, outdoor education and camp jobs, conservation projects, internships, travel‑related work, and other experiential opportunities. Operated as a small, self‑owned publishing business based in San Diego, California, it curates listings for employers and organizations that want to reach job seekers looking for unique, time‑limited roles rather than traditional long‑term careers.([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/company/backdoorjobs.com-short-term-job-adventures?trk=similar-pages))
A charge labeled something like “Paypal *Backdoorjob” with Merchant Category Code 7361 (employment agencies, temporary help services) is most likely a fee paid to Backdoorjobs.com for posting or promoting a job listing, purchasing advertising on the site, or possibly paying for access to certain recruiting or listing services. Because Backdoorjobs.com uses online payments and many small organizations pay via PayPal, the descriptor can show the PayPal prefix plus a truncated version of the site name (e.g., BACKDOORJOB), which can look unfamiliar on a bank statement.([cg.sc.gov](https://cg.sc.gov/sites/cg/files/Documents/Fiscal%20Transparency/Monthly%20Charge%20Card%20Usage/2016/CCU-July2016.pdf?utm_source=openai))
If you don’t recognize the charge, start by checking whether you—or anyone in your organization—recently posted a job ad or recruitment campaign on Backdoorjobs.com, or authorized a third party (such as a hiring manager or HR assistant) to do so. Look for a confirmation email or invoice from backdoorjobs.com or from PayPal referencing Backdoorjobs.com around the transaction date. To resolve questions, you can review your PayPal transaction details (which often include the seller’s contact email), then contact Backdoorjobs.com using the email or contact options listed on their website. For potential billing disputes or unauthorized charges, your bank or card issuer and PayPal can assist with chargeback or buyer protection processes while you also reach out to the site to cancel any listings or future charges.
