Happy to clarify! That's likely a temporary preauthorization charge from your credit card.  

The $1 charge will automatically drop off of your account on your final statement; however, if it doesn't disappear once your final charge is no longer pending, please [let us know](https://literati.kustomer.help/contact/kids-support-BJAHXJ6Pv).
