Two options, per the settlement site. Default: a TED Membership Benefit worth $10.00, which you must activate. Or file a Claim Form by October 26, 2026 and, if approved, choose a $5.00 cash payment instead — paid pro rata from a $350,000 settlement fund, so the amount can shrink if many claims come in.How this claim was filed
