What is "WL Steam Purchase"?

[Joshy]

I have been buying and refunding games on Steam for a decade now, and I've always been satisfied with how it plays out. However, I also keep track of my purchase history on my card and for the first time ever, I am seeing Steam charge me as "WL Steam Purchase" without any additional information instead of its usual verified "Steam - steamgames.com". The purchase I am refunding also happens to be from WL Steam Purchase, and it is taking longer than usual to refund me. Should I be concerned? I'm not sure how to share images/screenshots but if I figured it out I will be posting them. Thank you!

I just tried being an in game currency thru steam and it double charged me 52.74, so now I'm down $104 because of the WL thing. will it actually go away in a few days or am I screwed.

Happened to me but happened on a day where I did not purchase anything and was at work, and said the location was at Seattle WA even though I live nowhere near it and I checked my previous steam purchases and they went through long before so it's definitely not delayed purchase nor a card being verified since my card has been on my account since I made it
My only assumption is that someone has my card information.

This was not the case for myself at all anyhow - the charges ended up being legit.

Any updates because I just made a purchase and it said my card was declined but WL Steam still took my money and I dont have the game.

The failed purchase funds are just on a temporary hold by the payment provider. That failed purchase will be released back to you in a few days.

Given every charge I have for WL I have is for a legitimate purchase my two best guesses
1. Wishlist (the more likely answer to me)
2. For games that are on sale

This just happened to me right now to my gcash account. I don't even connect my account to steam. What the heck is happening?

[Mikerowayve]

Just happened to me today for 43.51, I’m hoping I get it back cause I got a ♥♥♥♥ job currently and am hardly paid I need that money

[yingy5123]

I was charged $42 dollars on WL steam purchase yesterday but I wash my even on steam yesterday
What is that purchase?

[divineintenti0n]

I experienced today. The $15 upgrade cost me almost $30 because that wl thing gets 15 another dollar. What is wl Steam Purschase conversation? This is outright fraud. It's never happened to me before.

Spent 10 on something for a game took it out my cash app but not in my wallet tf bro

[J.T.Kappa]

Literally just happened while attempting to buy NS2. Figured hey, haven't played thus since college. Let's spend 6 bucks. Nope. Now Cashapp is saying it's Steam and Steam is saying it's Cashapp. Guess I'm not buying games off Steam with cashapp ever again.

[dracoomoto]

$7.06 was taken from my cash app due to this WL Steam Purchase boloney!

[AFKstressEating]

I got charged $590.00 dollars from this WL steam purchase two days ago!!!!!
Nearly six hundred freaking dollars.....

I contacted my credit card company first and brought them up to speed. Got a new card number etc etc. Steam hasn't responded to my ticket yet. They better have a good explanation for what the heck this is.
