I just got a pre authorised charge of 11.99 from google play on my paypal account but i don't remember pre authorizing it. Can anyone tell me what this could be for? Is it an annual charge maybe?

As this a peer to peer community, no one here can view user account information because this is a public forum.  Suggest that you look through your account Activity section - if you made a purchase, you would have a record of the transaction.   If you unknowingly setup a recurring payment purchase (and people do that), you can check your account for that too and cancel it if you wish.

 

Here's how:

Login to your account.

Click the Settings (gear) icon near the top of the page.
Under the "Payment" section.
Select "Manage Pre-approved Payments".
Select the merchant whose agreement you want to cancel and click "Cancel".
Click Cancel Profile to confirm your request.

I just noticed this on my account too.  I've got a feeling it might be for RedTube?  If so, I'm happy to keep paying for it because I think it's great, so I don't want to cancel it in case I lose RedTube.  Fingers crossed it's for RedTube. 🙂

So after doing some more research, I realised I meant to say YouTubeRed.  NOT REDTUBE. That's creepy.  Definitely YouTubeRed - the YouTube without ads, not the creepy Tube.  I just wanted to make that clear.  While I was wondering why the charge says it's from GooglePlay, I looked into the subscription more and it turns out it comes with a bonus GooglePlay membership.  Meaning there's a relationship between YouTube & GooglePlay.  I'm satisfied that this is what I'm paying for.  It's $11.99AUD and related to GooglePlay. There's a 3 month free trial, so it's likely people will forget they signed up for it once the payment finally goes through.

Google owns Youtube.

When I paid for a movie on Google,the payment would say Google play.
