Bink Ink is an independent, family-run publishing company that creates and sells tabletop games and themed gifts, best known for its Trekking series inspired by U.S. national parks and world travel.
Bink Ink is a small, independent publishing company that designs and produces tabletop games and related gifts. Founded by game designer and artist Charlie Bink, the company is best known for titles like "Trekking the National Parks," a Mensa Select–award-winning board game, and other travel- and nature-themed games and products. Bink Ink operates its own online shop where customers can purchase games, expansions, and gift items directly from the publisher.
A charge from “BINKINK.COM BINKINK.COM AZ” on a card statement typically reflects a one-time purchase made through Bink Ink’s online store, such as a board game, expansion, or gift order. These charges may also appear when buying Bink Ink products through special promotions or direct-sale links from the publisher, and in some cases as a shipping, tax, or replacement-part transaction associated with an earlier order. The descriptor emphasizes the website URL so customers can easily recognize that the charge is tied to a purchase at binkink.com.
If someone has questions about a Bink Ink charge, the best first step is to review recent email receipts from binkink.com and check any accounts used when placing game orders. Customers can contact Bink Ink via the email address and contact form listed on their website for order lookups, invoice copies, or billing corrections. Verifying order dates, amounts, and shipping details will help confirm that the charge is legitimate. If the transaction still seems unfamiliar after contacting Bink Ink, cardholders should follow up with their bank or card issuer to dispute or block further charges.

These are the raw merchant codes that appear on bank and credit card statements that we've identified as belonging to Bink Ink.
What does a charge from BINKINK.COM or Bink Ink on my statement mean?
A BINKINK.COM or Bink Ink charge usually means you or someone in your household purchased a Bink Ink product—most commonly one of their Trekking board games or related gifts—through their online shop at binkink.com. Check your email for order confirmations around the transaction date to verify the purchase.
Is Bink Ink a subscription service or a one-time purchase?
Bink Ink primarily sells tabletop games and gifts as one-time purchases rather than running a subscription service. If you see more than one charge, it’s usually due to multiple separate orders, preorders that shipped at different times, or a replacement/secondary order rather than an ongoing subscription.
Why is my Bink Ink charge amount higher than the price I remember?
The total Bink Ink charge can include sales tax, shipping, add-ons (like expansions or accessories), or multiple items in the same cart. Review the itemized receipt from binkink.com, which will show the base price, shipping, tax, and any discount codes applied so you can match it to the exact card amount.
How can I get a receipt or invoice for my Bink Ink purchase?
After checkout, Bink Ink emails an order confirmation to the address you provided. You can search your inbox for “Bink Ink” or “binkink.com.” If you can’t find it, visit binkink.com and use their contact form or listed support email with your name, approximate order date, and last four digits of your card so they can look up and resend your receipt.
How do I request a refund or replacement for a damaged or missing Bink Ink game?
Go to binkink.com and navigate to the contact or support section. Provide your order number, photos of any damage if applicable, and a brief description of the issue. Bink Ink is a small, family-run publisher and typically handles refunds, replacements, or missing-piece requests directly via email support.
Can I cancel or change my Bink Ink order after I’ve been charged?
Because Bink Ink is a small publisher and ships orders quickly, changes may only be possible shortly after purchase. If you need to cancel or modify an order, contact them immediately through the binkink.com contact page with your order number and requested changes. If the order has already shipped, you may need to arrange a return or exchange instead.
Why do I see a small pending or duplicate charge from Bink Ink?
Occasionally your bank may show a temporary authorization when you place an order at binkink.com, followed by the final settled charge. The smaller or earlier amount should fall off automatically within a few days. If a pending authorization converts into two posted charges, contact Bink Ink support first with your order details, then your card issuer to resolve any true duplicates.
How can I verify that a Bink Ink charge is legitimate before disputing it?
Verify whether anyone in your household recently ordered a board game, especially Trekking the National Parks or similar titles, from binkink.com or a direct promotion link. Check email receipts under all household email addresses and look at your browser history for visits to binkink.com around the charge date. If you still can’t tie the transaction to a purchase, contact Bink Ink via their site and, if necessary, file a dispute with your card issuer.
