What is "Broadcastify"?

Broadcastify is a website that lets you listen to live police, fire, and emergency radio feeds from around the world. They offer subscriptions that give you extra features, like an ad-free experience and access to more channels. If you’re seeing a charge from them, it’s likely for a subscription you signed up for to enjoy their streaming services more fully.

Broadcastify: The name of the service or company providing live audio feeds, typically for emergency services, police, and fire broadcasts.
XXXX-XXXX: This section often includes a masked or hidden identifier, such as a specific service or plan type associated with your subscription.
SUBSCRIPTION: This indicates that the transaction is a payment for a service that you are subscribed to, which means you will have access to content as long as you pay.
MONTHLY: The frequency of the payment, meaning this charge occurs every month.
2023-MM-DD: Represents the date of the transaction when the payment was processed.
PAYMENT: This signifies that the transaction is a payment, indicating that money has been exchanged for the service.

Verify With Receipt

The best way to tell if this charge is fraudulent is to find the receipt. You may have an electronic copy of the receipt, which Chargeback can help you find by searching your email accounts.

Chargeback helps you identify unwanted subscriptions and charges, and help you fight them to get your money back.
