About the Payment Card Interchange Fee Settlement

The long-running Visa/Mastercard (V/M) litigation officially known as the “Payment Card/Interchange Fee & Merchant Discount Antitrust Litigation (MDL. No. 1720)” has finally settled — and whether you're a current or former business owner, it could represent a windfall opportunity.

What it's about
This historic antitrust settlement will compensate a vast range of U.S. merchants that have paid interchange fees on payment card transactions. The case alleges that Visa and Mastercard colluded to overcharge interchange fees from some 16 million businesses from 2004-2019. Eligible class members who submit approved claims will be eligible for a slice of the $5.4 billion pie. 

How to take advantage
The claim filing window opens in December, 2023, with claim notices being sent to 18 million class members. We're here to arrange for a precise and timely claim on your behalf, and even monetize your pending claim for immediate cash. Just start with our online monetization calculator on this site, or contact us for help.
