Are you in the majority here? More than 90% of eligible people in America don’t file their claims! Chances are that this could be you.

Our team has found it's typically a lack of understanding of what class actions are or a lack of awareness of what cases are out there.

We're here to change that.

Could I really be eligible for a settlement recovery? Probably!

Big things are happening for business owners in the class action world! After thirteen years of litigation, this case is officially settlement ready. 

The big case: the Payment Card Settlement, AKA the landmark Visa Mastercard Interchange Settlement. Here’s the case low-down.

Class Member Criteria:

1. 🗓️ Were you in business between January 1, 2004 - January 25, 2019?

2. 💳 Accept Visa or Mastercard branded debit or credit card swipes?

If you answered yes to both of these, you could be eligible to reclaim your share of the record $5.54 billion settlement!

What Happened?

Both independently and together, Visa and Mastercard, along with their member banks, were allegedly forcing you to pay excessive interchange fees and violating antitrust laws.

These interchange fees are typically 1-2% of every card transaction, meaning they add up over the years. Your actual payout will be determined by your proportional (“pro rata”) share of total fees paid. This is a historic case and is expecting significant merchant recoveries.

🤔 What is a Class Action Lawsuit?

A class action is a type of lawsuit filed by an individual or a group, either personally or through a business, representing a larger group of people (or businesses) known as the “class”. Each individual in the class is referred to as a "class member" and shares a similar claim or grievance from a common issue such as harm caused by a defective product, unfair business practices, or other types of wrongdoing. 

How Does it Work?

The class representatives, or “lead plaintiffs”, are that smaller group of individuals that file the lawsuit on behalf of the entire group. The court then determines whether the case can proceed as a class action, considering factors such as the 1) size of the class, 2) common legal issues, and 3) whether it's more efficient to resolve the claims collectively or through numerous individual lawsuits.

What's the Goal?

A lead plaintiff’s aim is to secure compensation for this substantial group that faced similar harm. Class actions often provide an avenue for individuals with smaller claims that normally would be difficult to pursue on their own by banding together to seek justice collectively. 

Successful class actions can result in settlements or court judgments providing:

1. Compensation

2. Remedies, or

3. Changes in behavior by the defendant to benefit the entire class.

In the end, class actions play a vital role in addressing widespread injustices, consumer rights violations, corporate misconduct, and other legal issues affecting a large group of individuals.
