Charged more than total price

I booked a house and the total came out to 855 dollars plus some cents. I then looked at my bank statement and it says I had been charged 902 dollars. Can anyone tell me why I was charged and extra 50 dollars that was not listed anywhere on the final purchase?

Maybe contact Airbnb about the issue:

is this your first booking on Airbnb or you stayed somewhere before? It may be some debt from your last trip, a resolution payout or something.

Airbnb charges a service fee (around 20%) as well as currency conversion fee (2-3%) so you actually pay more than your host charges for accommodation. Of course, you see the total amount while booking.
