Amazon Class Action: Are You In? Opt Out by Aug 31, 2026
See Details
Proof Required?
A class action lawsuit has been filed against Amazon, and if you've sold products as a third-party seller on Amazon's marketplace, you may be affected. A legal notice is now live, meaning the case has reached a stage where people who qualify need to decide whether to stay in the settlement, opt out, or take other action.
The key deadline to know right now is August 31, 2026 — that's the opt-out date. If you don't opt out by then, you may be automatically included in the settlement and give up your right to sue Amazon separately over the same issues. Whether that's the right move for you depends on your situation.
Details about the exact payout amounts and full eligibility requirements are still being confirmed, but if you've used Amazon's third-party seller platform, it's worth checking whether you qualify. Class Action Buddy can help you track this case and file when the claim form becomes available.
Who Is Eligible?
You may be eligible to file a claim if you:
- You are or were a third-party seller on Amazon's marketplace
- You sold products through Amazon during the relevant time period covered by the lawsuit (exact dates to be confirmed)
- You are a U.S.-based seller or your account was subject to Amazon's U.S. seller policies
- You received a legal notice from Amazon or the settlement administrator about this class action
How Much Can You Get?
Specific payout amounts for this settlement have not yet been publicly confirmed. The total value of the settlement and individual claim amounts will depend on factors like how many sellers qualify and the nature of the claims involved. As more details become available, this page will be updated with exact figures.
What we do know is that the opt-out deadline is August 31, 2026. If you believe your losses as an Amazon seller may be significant, you should consider consulting with a lawyer before that date to decide whether opting out and pursuing your own claim makes more sense than staying in the class action.

What is the Amazon third-party seller class action lawsuit about?
This class action involves Amazon and its third-party seller marketplace. The lawsuit alleges that Amazon engaged in practices that harmed sellers who use its platform. The full details of the claims are still being confirmed, but if you've sold on Amazon as a third-party seller, you may be included in the class.
What does it mean to opt out of the Amazon seller class action?
Opting out means you choose NOT to be part of the settlement. If you opt out, you keep your right to sue Amazon on your own over the same issues. If you stay in (do nothing), you'll be bound by the settlement terms and receive whatever payout is offered, but you give up the right to sue separately. The opt-out deadline is August 31, 2026.

If you're happy to potentially receive a settlement payout and don't want to pursue your own lawsuit, you can wait for the claim form to open. If you think your individual losses are large enough to warrant your own legal action, talk to a lawyer before the opt-out deadline.
