About Pixiv Inc.

Pixiv Inc. is a Japanese internet company best known for operating pixiv, a large online community where illustrators, manga artists, animators, and writers share and discover creative works. The company also runs related services such as Pixiv Premium (a paid membership with enhanced features), BOOTH (a marketplace where creators can sell digital and physical goods), and pixivFANBOX (a creator-support platform similar to memberships or patronage). The descriptor “PIKUSHIBU ZHU SHI HUI SHE” is a romanized/Chinese rendering of ピクシブ株式会社, which is Pixiv Inc.

A charge from Pixiv may appear on your card when you subscribe to Pixiv Premium, support a creator on pixivFANBOX, purchase items from BOOTH, or buy other paid digital services linked to your pixiv account. These can be recurring monthly subscription fees (for Premium or ongoing FANBOX support tiers) or one‑time purchases (for digital downloads, event-related goods, or physical merchandise). Depending on your bank, the descriptor may show in various transliterations of the company’s Japanese name rather than simply “pixiv.net”.

If you don’t recognize a Pixiv-related charge, start by logging into your pixiv account and checking your Premium status, FANBOX support history, and BOOTH purchase history for matching dates and amounts. You can review receipts in each service’s account or order pages. If you still have questions, contact Pixiv support through their official help pages, providing the transaction date, amount, and last four digits of your card. For unauthorized or mistaken charges, you can request cancellation or a refund through Pixiv, and if that fails, follow up with your card issuer to dispute the transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from “PIKUSHIBU ZHU SHI HUI SHE” on my card statement?

This descriptor is a transliteration of Pixiv Inc. (ピクシブ株式会社). You’re likely being charged for a Pixiv Premium subscription, a pixivFANBOX creator support plan, or a purchase made via BOOTH or another Pixiv-operated service.

What are common amounts for Pixiv Premium and how often am I billed?

Pixiv Premium is typically billed monthly and the amount may vary slightly depending on region, currency, and platform (web vs. app store). Check the current Pixiv Premium pricing page while logged in to see your exact plan and next billing date.

How can I cancel my Pixiv Premium subscription so future charges stop?

Log in to pixiv.net, go to your account settings or “Premium” section, and follow the steps to cancel your Premium membership. If you subscribed through a mobile app store (Google Play, Apple App Store), you must cancel through that store’s subscription settings instead of the Pixiv website.

I bought something on BOOTH—will the charge still show as Pixiv Inc. on my statement?

Yes, many BOOTH purchases are processed under Pixiv Inc., so your statement may show a Pixiv-related descriptor rather than the individual circle or creator name. Check your BOOTH order history for an order on the same date and amount as the card charge.

How do I request a refund for a Pixiv, BOOTH, or pixivFANBOX charge I don’t recognize or made by mistake?

First, confirm the transaction details in your pixiv, BOOTH, or FANBOX account history. If you believe it’s an error, contact Pixiv support from the official help or inquiry page, including your account ID, order number, transaction date, and amount. Refunds are handled case by case and may not be available for some digital items once delivered.

Can Pixiv place small temporary charges or authorization holds on my card?

Pixiv or its payment processors may place a small authorization hold when you add or update a card to confirm it is valid. These holds are temporary, typically disappear in a few days, and should not post as final charges.

How can I check which Pixiv services (Premium, FANBOX, BOOTH) are currently billing my card?

Log in to pixiv.net and check: (1) the Premium section in account settings for active subscriptions, (2) pixivFANBOX for active support plans under “Support list” or similar, and (3) BOOTH for recent order history. Compare these records with your card statement dates and amounts.

How do I contact Pixiv about a billing issue if I can’t log into my account?

Use the official Pixiv help or contact form (linked from pixiv.net’s footer or help center) and choose the billing or payments category. Provide as much information as possible—email address you may have used, approximate account name, transaction date and amount, and the last four digits of your card—so support can locate the relevant records.
