About Meijer

Meijer is a family-owned chain of supercenters based in the Midwestern United States. Each Meijer location typically includes a full supermarket with fresh produce, meat, bakery, and deli departments, along with extensive general merchandise such as clothing, electronics, home goods, seasonal items, and pharmacy services. The brand is known for its one-stop-shopping format, often open extended hours, where customers can buy groceries and household items in a single trip.

A charge labeled like “MEIJER STORE #03” on your card statement usually corresponds to an in-store purchase at a specific Meijer location, covering groceries, household goods, fuel (if the store has a gas station), or pharmacy items. Depending on how the transaction was processed, the descriptor might show a particular store number or slight variations in wording. Occasionally, you may also see small temporary authorization amounts if your card was used at self-checkout, the gas pumps, or for a large transaction.

If you have questions about a Meijer charge, start by checking your paper receipt, Meijer digital account, or loyalty app activity for the date and amount shown on your statement. To resolve concerns, you can contact the specific store where you shopped (store phone numbers are listed on meijer.com) or reach out to Meijer guest services via their website. Bring or reference your receipt, the last four digits of the card used, and the exact charge amount to help customer service quickly research and resolve any discrepancies or refund requests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my statement show “MEIJER STORE #03” instead of the city name?

Meijer often uses internal store numbers in card descriptors, so “MEIJER STORE #03” refers to a specific location in their chain. You can usually match this by checking your receipt, which will list the store number, or by calling guest services and providing the store number and transaction date.

Can a single Meijer visit result in multiple card charges on the same day?

Yes. Separate transactions—such as paying for groceries inside and fuel at the gas station, or making two separate checkout trips—will appear as multiple Meijer charges. Also, a temporary authorization at the fuel pumps may appear in addition to the final posted fuel amount until it settles.

Does Meijer place temporary authorization holds on my card?

Meijer may place a temporary authorization hold, especially at self-serve fuel pumps or for certain card-not-present situations. These holds can be higher than the final purchase amount but should adjust to the actual total or fall off your account within a few business days, depending on your bank.

How can I get a copy of the receipt for a Meijer charge I don’t recognize?

You can contact the specific Meijer store where you believe the purchase occurred or reach out to Meijer guest services through meijer.com. Provide the transaction date, approximate time, amount, and the last four digits of your card so they can look up and reprint or verify the receipt.

How do I request a refund or dispute an incorrect charge from Meijer?

For most in-store purchases, visit the Meijer customer service desk at the store where you made the purchase with your receipt and the card used. If you cannot visit in person, call the store or Meijer guest services via the contact options on meijer.com to discuss your situation and possible refund or adjustment options.

Are Meijer pickup or delivery orders billed differently than in-store purchases?

Pickup and delivery orders are typically billed through Meijer using your saved payment method, and the final amount may differ slightly from the initial authorization due to substitutions, weighted items (like produce), or out-of-stock items. The final card descriptor will still usually reference Meijer along with a store or service identifier.

Why is my Meijer charge higher than the total I remember at checkout?

Differences may come from taxes, bottle deposits, weighted items (meat and produce), or added items you may have forgotten, such as gift cards or over-the-counter medications. Reviewing your printed or digital receipt and comparing line items to the statement amount is the best way to confirm the total.

How can I contact Meijer about a charge if I don’t know which store #03 is?

Visit meijer.com and use the store locator or guest services contact form. Customer service can help identify the store linked to “STORE #03” if you provide the transaction date, amount, and last four digits of your card, and then connect you to that location for further assistance.
