What is this Class Action Lawsuit about?
The lawsuit is about claims that merchants paid excessive fees to accept Visa and Mastercard payments because Visa and Mastercard, individually, and together with their respective member banks, violated the antitrust laws.
How Much Money Can I Receive?
Businesses that accepted these card payments between January 1, 2004 and January 25, 2019 are eligible for a portion of the $5.5 billion settlement. The amount each business receives is determined by their transaction volume during that period.
