This one is closed, but our 60-second eligibility quiz finds the ones that are still open.
Who Was Eligible?
Who the settlement covered:
- You held a valid ticket to the Copa América Final on July 14, 2024 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida
- You were denied entry to the stadium despite having a valid ticket
- You were unable to access your assigned seat during the event
- You attended the event but experienced significant disruption to your ticketed experience
- You are a U.S. resident (or were present at the event regardless of residency)
How Much Did It Pay?
The settlement establishes a $14 million fund to compensate affected ticketholders. Eligible claimants may receive up to $2,000 per ticket, though the exact amount each person receives will depend on the total number of valid claims submitted and the specific circumstances of their experience at the event. Ticketholders who were fully denied entry may receive a higher payout than those who experienced partial disruptions. Since this is a claims-made settlement, the sooner you file and the fewer total claims submitted, the better your chances of receiving closer to the maximum amount. The claim deadline is August 11, 2026, so there is time to gather your documentation, but don't wait too long.How this claim was filed
