How Much Did It Pay?
Eligible businesses and charitable organizations can receive a flat payment of $10,000 from the $4.5 million settlement fund. Unlike many class action settlements where the payout depends on how many people file, this settlement offers a flat $10,000 per qualifying claimant — meaning you know exactly what you're getting before you file.
