Where can I find my purchases and memberships on YouTube?

This is how you find your purchases, memberships, premium editions, and refunds on YouTube.

How to Access Your YouTube Purchases and Memberships

Managing your digital spending and subscriptions on YouTube is straightforward once you know where the account settings are located. Whether you are looking to verify a recent transaction, manage a recurring subscription, or check the status of a refund, YouTube provides a centralized hub for all financial activity tied to your account.

Step-by-Step Guide to Finding Your History

To find an overview of your spending and active subscriptions, follow these steps:

  1. Open YouTube: Ensure you are logged into the account associated with your purchases.
  2. Access the Account Menu: Click on your profile picture located in the top right corner of the screen.
  3. Navigate to Purchases: From the dropdown menu, select the option labeled “Purchases and memberships.”

By following this path, you will be directed to a dedicated page that summarizes your financial relationship with the platform.

Understanding Your Purchase Overview

The “Purchases and memberships” section serves as a comprehensive ledger for various types of transactions. Depending on how you use the platform, you will find different categories of expenses here:

Memberships

This section includes any active or past channel memberships. These are typically monthly payments made to support specific Creators in exchange for exclusive perks. Keeping an eye on this area allows you to see which channels you are currently supporting and when your next billing cycle occurs.

Movie Purchases

If you have bought or rented films through YouTube’s movie library, these transactions will be listed here. This provides a permanent record of the digital content you own via the platform.

YouTube Premium

For users who subscribe to YouTube Premium for an ad-free experience and additional features, this section displays the status of that subscription and the associated costs.

Refunds

In addition to expenses, this area is where you can track any respective refunds. If a purchase was canceled or a billing error was corrected, the refund status will be reflected in your summary, allowing you to confirm that the funds have been processed back to your original payment method.

By regularly checking this overview, you can maintain full control over your YouTube account management and ensure that all active memberships and purchases align with your budget.
