GBON Global is a Slovenia-based trading and services company that operates direct‑to‑consumer online brands, including the PureFlow water-filter straw store.
GBON Global is a private Slovenian company formally registered as “GBON GLOBAL, trgovina, storitve in svetovanje, d.o.o.” and based in Ljubljana. Business registry and credit-report data describe it as an intermediary for non-specialized retail sales, meaning it manages or operates online retail offerings rather than a single physical shop. In practice, GBON Global appears as the legal entity behind certain consumer brands, such as the PureFlow online store that sells personal water-filter straws and related products to customers worldwide.
A charge labeled “GBON GLOBAL” or “GBON GLO – PAYPAL PURCHASE” with a San Jose, CA location typically indicates an online purchase processed via PayPal, where PayPal’s U.S. headquarters address is shown on the card statement instead of Slovenia. This charge often corresponds to an order placed on a website operated for or by GBON Global—most commonly the PureFlow site for portable water filters—covering one-time product purchases, shipping costs, or taxes. Recurring charges are less likely but could occur if you opted into subscription-style reorders or similar offers during checkout.
If you do not recognize the charge, first check your email for a receipt from PureFlow or any brand site you recently used that mentioned GBON Global d.o.o. in its legal or policy pages. You can also review recent PayPal activity, where the transaction details will usually show the underlying merchant brand and order information. For questions or disputes, contact the store’s customer support through its website (for PureFlow, the support email and contact form are listed on shoppureflow.net) and include the transaction date, amount, and any order number. If the merchant cannot be reached or you suspect fraud, you should promptly contact your card issuer or PayPal to report the transaction and request a dispute or chargeback investigation.

Why does my statement show a charge from GBON Global with a San Jose, CA location?
The descriptor combines the legal seller name, GBON Global, with PayPal’s processing location in San Jose, California. GBON Global d.o.o. itself is based in Ljubljana, Slovenia, but when a purchase is processed via PayPal, your bank often displays PayPal’s U.S. location even though the underlying merchant is GBON Global acting behind a brand like PureFlow.
What did I likely buy from GBON Global?
Most consumers seeing a GBON Global or GBON GLO PayPal charge have recently ordered from an online brand operated by or for GBON Global, such as the PureFlow store that sells personal water-filter straws and related accessories. The transaction amount should roughly match the product price plus shipping and any taxes shown at checkout on that site.
Is the GBON Global charge a subscription or a one‑time payment?
In most cases the GBON Global charge is a one‑time payment for products purchased through an online storefront (for example, a PureFlow water filter). Unless you explicitly enrolled in a recurring plan or auto‑reorder during checkout, GBON Global transactions should not repeat automatically. Check your order confirmation email or your account on the relevant site to see if any subscription terms were accepted.
How can I cancel a subscription or reorder linked to GBON Global?
If you believe you enrolled in a subscription or automatic reorder, log into the website where you placed the order (such as the PureFlow store) and look for an account, subscription, or billing section to manage or cancel your plan. If the payment is managed via PayPal, you can also open your PayPal account, view the payment under Settings > Payments > Automatic Payments, and cancel any active billing agreement tied to GBON Global or the associated brand.
How do I request a refund for a GBON Global transaction?
Start by locating your order confirmation email from the brand you purchased from (commonly PureFlow) and use the return/refund or contact links provided there. The PureFlow site lists support contact details, including an email address for customer service, where you can request a refund or return authorization. Include your full name, order number, date, and a brief explanation. If you paid with PayPal or a credit card and cannot resolve the issue with the merchant, you may open a dispute through PayPal or your card issuer within their specified time limits.
Why do I see two similar charges related to GBON Global or PayPal?
You may see an initial pending authorization from PayPal or your card network followed by the final settled charge in the name of GBON Global. The first is a temporary authorization to confirm your payment method; it should drop off your account automatically after a few days, leaving only the completed transaction. If both remain posted after a full billing cycle, contact your bank or PayPal to ask about reversing any duplicate charge.
How can I verify that a GBON Global charge is legitimate?
Match the transaction date and amount with recent orders you placed on sites like PureFlow or other online shops that might list GBON Global d.o.o. in their policies or legal sections. Then, log into PayPal or your card’s online banking portal and open the transaction details, where you should see additional information such as the merchant’s email, website, or invoice ID. If you still cannot connect the charge to a known purchase, contact the merchant support listed on the related website or your card issuer to investigate possible fraud.
How do I contact GBON Global or the associated store about my order?
Because GBON Global acts as the legal entity behind consumer-facing brands, you should usually contact the brand’s customer service directly—for example, via the support email and contact form listed on shoppureflow.net for PureFlow orders. Provide your order number, billing name, and the last four digits of the card or PayPal transaction. If you cannot identify the brand, your PayPal or bank transaction details may include a merchant email address you can use to reach out.
