About MongoDB Atlas
MongoDB Atlas is a fully managed, cloud-based database service from MongoDB, Inc. It provides automated deployment, scaling, backups, and monitoring of MongoDB databases on major cloud providers such as AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Atlas is used by developers and businesses to run production, staging, and development databases without having to manage the underlying infrastructure themselves.
A charge labeled “MONGODB ATLAS” on your card statement typically relates to usage-based billing for your Atlas clusters, including cluster size, storage, backup, data transfer, and any additional services such as Atlas Search or serverless instances. Charges may be monthly recurring for ongoing deployments, or variable month-to-month depending on your consumption. You may also see smaller test charges or prorated amounts if you upgraded, downgraded, or paused services partway through a billing cycle.
If you have questions about a MongoDB Atlas charge, start by logging into your Atlas account and reviewing the Organization > Billing or Invoices section, where detailed usage and invoice breakdowns are available. Verify which project and cluster generated the charges and whether other team members or linked organizations may have created resources. For further help, you can contact MongoDB support through the Atlas UI (Support tab), use the in-product help, or open a support case if your plan includes it. If you believe a charge is fraudulent and cannot access an account, contact MongoDB billing support and your card issuer to investigate and dispute the transaction if needed.
