This is a list of names found on credit card transactions that don’t match the name of the business. This often happens when the merchant name used for the machine to process credit cards is different from the name displayed at the site of the business.
If you have an unrecognised name on your credit card statement, you may find it here. The list started from my own frustration with bizarre names on my statement. Additional names have been suggested or asked of and added to the list.
Did you find this information useful? This list is provided for free and we are happy to help others that share the frustration we experience too. If you would like to contribute back in a small (and free) way, see and like our Brown Signs Facebook page. We find and list points of interest and tourist destinations with a brown tourist sign. Have a look at our website with over 100 Brown Signs of the Brisbane area.
This list is for businesses operating in the Moreton Bay Region where the name displayed on credit card statements are different or confusing compared to the business name they are known as.
Do you have names of businesses with different or confusing names on your credit card statement and is not listed here? Tell us about it in the comments below and we will add them to the list.

AZMAN HAROON NORTH LAKES QLD
Thanks Steven, it has been added to the list. We were not able to verify this one until now.
Redcliffe Dolph DDS Redcliffe |
Hi Terry, I believe this is Discount Drug Stores at the Redcliffe Dolphins shopping centre where Coles is.
All the best, Brent
I think this is chemists warehouse
MAB INVSTMNTS QLD PL = boondall IGA
LENNOX FOODS PTY LTD = Ilforno Pizzeria, Sandgate
Thanks Peter, we have added Lennox Foods and MAB Invstmnts to the list.
Bratalam Pty Ltd
Clontarf ???
Hi Steve, this was a little tricky to locate but I found Bratalam Pty Ltd is an organisational representative of Peninsula Landscape Centre. Both have the same registered address, 55 Grace St, Clontarf QLD 4019.
LEVI&MIA PTY LTD REDCLIFFE
Hi Matt, haven’t been able to find much about Levi & Mia Pty Ltd other than it is in 4020 postcode (which the name already suggested anyway), and it was registered in May 2020
Hi all, I was trying to find out about LEVI & MIA PTY LTD REDCLIFFE as well and I think it is Cactus Jack’s on Redcliffe Parade.
Cheers
Andy
I think this is Cactus Jacks. I have just been searching for half an hour, and then remembered that we dined there.
Hi guys… I think this might be for cactus jacks? I ate there and had this pop up on my card after the night we had dinner there.
Could this be Cactus Jacks?
Ah yes it must be …have just been there and have this on my bank statement ..cactus jack
At Redcliffe
Yes I think it must be, it appeared on my statement and that’s the only place is bee that day
I’m so glad I saw this. I couldn’t work out the charge and indeed it is Cactus Jacks
I think this is Cactus Jacks
LIV*SPRINGMOUNT PL
Hi Matt, I haven’t been able to find a clear answer for this one. Springmount Services Pty Ltd is the best match I can find, they are based in Springwood. I’m unsure what the LIV* represents, possibly similar to the PP* for PayPal
This is Honey B’s on Caxton Street.
Honey B’s looks like it is it! Thanks for the contribution Jim
Yeah it’s honey B’s haha its the strippers
Honey B’s looks like it is it! Thanks for the contribution Krystal
PP*SOUTHBRISBAN ANNERLEY
Hi Matt, there isn’t enough information to try to work this one out. The PP* could be representative for PayPal express.
Willows Co Pty Ltd? Thanks 🙂
I haven’t been able to work this one out, other than they are registered in Upper Caboolture.
Could it be Burger Time?
I have SAJH PTY LTD Redcliffe on my credit card and I can’t work out who they are. Are you able to help me?
Hi Richard, I can’t find exact details but they could be in or near Mango Hill. Does that help work out who they may be?
this is Cafe 63 at redcliffe
Hey guys, does anybody know the business G-More at North Lakes? Seems to be on Endeavour Boulevard. Have a transaction on my statement, but have never been to North Lakes in my life. I can’t seem to find a trading name for the business, only the registered business name. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks all.
This is a tough one but I did find a reference to the name in Buderim Everfresh Food Market. The company “G-More” is registered in North Lakes since September 2020 but it was previously in Buderim, and Hervey Bay and Rockhampton before that. G-More is referenced on a document from Adcome Pty Ltd, owner of Cornetts and Everfresh Food Markets, specifically referencing Buderim Everfresh Food Market. It is very likely they now have the North Lakes IGA store (which isn’t listed on the IGA website yet). Have you been to IGA in North Lakes?
Hello on the 26/04/2021 I had $41.50 taken out of my account by D&G dream investments Clontarf could you tell me why this happened and can I get my money back pls
Hi Roger, D&G Dream Investments Clontarf is the IGA at Clontarf. We only list unrecognised names and show who they actually are, we don’t have any affiliation with any of them. If you haven’t been to IGA then you could go to them to discuss it or with your bank. All the best.
We have recently had the name Vanguru Pty Ltd come up quite frequently and we cant place it on our credit card statement
Hi Kathleen, I can’t find much for Vanguru Pty Ltd. They are a registered company with an ACN of 630255515 with a registered office in North Lakes, however, they don’t appear to have a business name registered or associated with the ACN. I found a reference to 73 King Street Caboolture and possibly related to graphic design, although this may be inaccurate or not current. Does this help in any way?
Its the SPAR on McKean Street
Thanks Julie, I couldn’t find an official reference but I did find a photo submitted by Sujatha Vanguru to a business listing for SPAR on McKean St. The page has been updated 🙂
Thank you, this site was helpful in sorting out an unusual transaction. Everything was legit. I just wanted to say thanks
G-more Pty Ltd North Lakes Au: is also IGA in North Buderim. I just spent an hour web search and 2 phone calls to work that one out!
Thanks Sylvia, the frustration is real! IGA North Buderim has been added to the G-MORE PTY LTD entry, hopefully it will help others in the future. I wonder if Hervey Bay and/or Rockhampton still show G-MORE PTY LTD as well.
Thank you! I was about to RIDE HARD for “Levi & Mia” and your website showed me it’s cactus jacks…. We ordered takeout last night. 😂
Thank you!
P & L CHIDIAC PTY LT REDCLIFFE = Pita Kebab & Grill Redcliffe
Maruca holdings PT deception bay comes up on bank statement but actually is Liberty petrol station on deception bay road.
Thanks Kylie, Maruca Holdings has been added to the list
Just to say I really appreciate your efforts. Thought I was the only person left in the world that reconciled their Visa!! So great to find a couple on the list I had given up on. Thank you. Lois Milner
Peninsula Landscape Centre Clontarf = Bratalam PTY LTD CLONTARF on bank statement
B & C Investments Eatons Hill is IGA Eatons Hill. Daljas investments Strathpine is Pandora. Stone law Trading Morayfield is Nextra newsagents. Mimeway Pty ltd is Nuway landscaping.
Thanks Harry, all has been added except for Stone Law Trading as I can’t find any references to the name. I did find a Stoneclaw Trading Pty Ltd in the general area. Could this be it? Are you able to send us a screenshot or similar? Our email address is on the contact page.
Thank you so much for this site. It seems each month I’m finding more names on my statement that I don’t recognise so much appreciated!
Sweet list!!! Wish banks would see this and fix their game! Saving and will add to if I find anything funky.
Great info, thanks heaps. answered a lot of questions about mystery charges and put my mind at ease. cheers!!
This list is invaluable. Do you know what HAP & CAP ENTERPRISE SCARBOROUGH is? I think it’s Bay Boats, but I might be wrong.
Hi Brad,
I don’t know who Hap & Cap Enterprise are but I suspect it isn’t Bay Boats. This is the information I could find.
They are not GST registered but were between 2000 and 2009.
They have had two business names previously, The Intuitive Way and H2OK, however, both names ended before 2004.
I found a couple of addresses, one for North Quay Scarborough and another in Newport Drive, Newport. There was a change of address early in 2021.
Both addresses could be a registered office and not the main place for trading, so it may not be where the purchase was done.
I hope this helps in working out who they are. If you find out, can you let us know?
All the best, Brent
Can anyone please help with BR CLONTAF? The ABN doesn’t give much info. Hoping someone else has recognised it on their statement?
Hi Susan, could this be Baskin and Robbins in Clontarf? The ABN records don’t show much. Sometimes there are related business names but nothing noted for this one.
There’s a transaction for Clontarf Pizza Hut the same day, so yes, ice cream for dessert makes sense 🙂 Thanks
DEBORAH HAREN CLONTARF – any idea who this belongs to?
I can’t find definitive information but I did find Deborah Haren is a sole trader with a current ABN number. There was an associated business name from 2017 to 2019, The Hideaway Scarborough, which was a restaurant. Possibly a cafe or restaurant with a different name? Maybe a mobile coffee van?
HAP & CAP ENTERPRISE SCARBOROUGH
This is Bay Boats Cornershop & Takeaway
Thank you, the page has been updated to show Bay Boats 🙂
Hiya Just purchased bathers on-line from Zoggs. On my Credit card its listed as Head Mares SS1 Yatala. It took me a long while and a little research to understand that this is a diving outfit attached to Zoggs (Australian) swimwear. Hope this helps others. Cheers.
Thanks Gwynneth, interestingly the entity owning the Zoggs Australian name was Mares Oceania Pty Ltd, now Head Oceania Pty Ltd, both names used in the credit card description. It is a little out of the Moreton Bay area but I have added it to the list outside of the region.
This site helped me with reconciling a business, so I will give back with two that are not listed here yet:
HIBERNIAN QLD FRIEND SCARBOROUGH == Ballycara Coffee Bar Scarborough
LIN & WENG PTY LTD KIPPA-RING == Chopstix Kippa-Ring
Thanks.
BW ROTHWELL ROTHWELL == Battery World Rothwell
HENG SHUN PTY LTD MARGATE == Healthy Noodle Bar Margate
JAD FRESH PTY LTD ROTHWELL == Carl’s Jr. Rothwell
ANPK Pty. Ltd.
Bayside Kebab & Spicy Eastern Restaurant
Clontarf
Thanks Stuart, it has been added to the list
Hi. I have “Sq *1eight Mango Hill” on my statement.
Hi Lenny, most likely this is Bells Caravan Park (Escape Parks Clontarf). It could be Toorbul but Clontarf is the most likely.
Ww hana pty ltd
Unsure what shop it was
Hi Paul, it appears to be Hana Hair Studios in Murrumba Downs. It has been added to the list
Sajh Pty. Ltd. Rappville = Cafe 63 – Redcliffe (185 Redcliffe Parade)
Thanks James, the records have been updated.
