The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) issued refunds to eligible consumers and students in April 2026. If you're wondering whether you qualified for one of these payments, you should check your mailbox and email inbox for refund notifications. FTC refunds typically come from settlements with companies that engaged in deceptive practices, unfair business conduct, or violated consumer protection laws. These refunds are sent automatically to people who were harmed by the company's actions and don't require filing a separate claim.
