Check now: You could still claim cash from these settlements before the August deadline

If you’ve ever received an email about a class action or spotted a strange line item on a receipt, you may be owed money—and you wouldn’t be alone.

Several major US settlements are wrapping up this August, with some still open to new claims.

A few offer flat payments of $15 or $70, while others could pay out thousands for those who qualify.


Good news—some settlements are still open for claims as of August 26.

But with deadlines just around the corner, now’s the time to act.

Why class action claims matter​


Whether it’s over privacy violations, misleading ads, or unfair treatment, these settlements help hold companies accountable.

For consumers, they offer something even more tangible: money back.

Most of the time, you don’t even need a lawyer—just a few minutes and a form.

Even if the amount is small, a $70 or $150 check can go a long way, especially for those on fixed incomes.

And for those who qualify for larger reimbursements, these claims could help offset real expenses.
