Visa – MasterCard Lawsuit Settlement.

If your business accepted Visa or MasterCard between January 1, 2004, and
January 25, 2019, you might be entitled to a share of a substantial $6 billion
settlement.

A two-decade-long lawsuit against Visa and MasterCard for overcharging US-based
merchants has finally ended.

With the lawsuit settled in 2023, Visa and MasterCard have placed $5.6 billion
into an interest-bearing account, which has now grown to over $6 billion.

This money is intended to be distributed to merchants who processed credit card
transactions during the 15-year window from January 2004 to January 2019.

It doesn’t matter if the business is open and operating or closed for any
reason.

To receive your share of this settlement, you must file a claim.

The claim filing process began in December 2023, but only 378,000 out of 18.6
million eligible merchants have filed claims.

This low participation rate is advantageous because the court will only
distribute the funds on a prorated basis to those who have filed claims.

By working with one of the few law firms directly accessing the Visa/MC portal,
you won’t need to provide any statements, financials, or documentation.

You need only fill out a simple 3-page DocuSign agreement, which takes 5-7
minutes to complete.

The DocuSign agreement is straightforward:

 * Page 1: Information about the settlement
 * Page 2: Fee disclosure and your business information
 * Page 3: Limited Power of Attorney and additional business information

No Upfront Costs: You pay nothing out of pocket. The law firm will charge a fee
for the recovered funds.

Take advantage of this opportunity.

To get started and receive the DocuSign agreement, provide your name, email
address, and the number of entities you’d like to register.

Start Your Claim Today. Fill out the form to begin the process and ensure you
receive the compensation you’re entitled to.

You can now secure your share of the settlement without hassle or upfront costs.

Join the select merchants who have already claimed part of this historic
settlement.

The claim filing deadline is August 30, 2024. ACT NOW!

Don’t leave money on the table. Claim your share today.


WHAT HAPPENED?



A two-decade-long lawsuit against Visa and MasterCard for overcharging US-based
merchants has finally ended.

This settlement is a response to cases where merchants in the US were charged up
to 5-6 times more than their European counterparts.

With the lawsuit settled in 2023, Visa and MasterCard have placed $5.6 billion
into an interest-bearing account, which has now grown to over $6 billion.




WHY YOU NEED TO ACT NOW



The settlement funds are intended to be distributed to merchants who processed
credit card transactions between January 2004 and January 2019 by the end of
2024.

The process for filing claims began in December 2023, but so far, only 378,000
of the 18.6 million eligible merchants have submitted claims.

The low participation rate can benefit those who have filed claims, as the court
will only distribute the funds on a prorated basis.

However, it’s important to note that the deadline for filing claims is August
30, 2024.

So, act now!



HOW TO CLAIM YOUR SHARE

which should only take 5-7 minutes.

And that’s it!

FAQ




IS THIS A SCAM?

No, this is not a scam. The lawsuit against Visa and MasterCard is a legitimate
legal case that resulted in a $5.4 billion settlement for overcharged merchants.
You can verify the details through official court documents and the law firm
handling the claims.


WHERE CAN I SEE THE SETTLEMENT DETAILS?

You can find all the details of the settlement on the official court website or
this website in the additional information section. These court documents offer
comprehensive information about the lawsuit and the settlement.


WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE SETTLEMENT?

Any merchant in the United States that accepted Visa or MasterCard payments
between January 1, 2004, and January 25, 2019, can file a claim for a portion of
the settlement. This includes businesses that are currently open and operating
and those that are closed for any reason.


WHAT IS THE SETTLEMENT ABOUT?

The settlement resolves a two-decade-long lawsuit where Visa and MasterCard were
accused of overcharging merchants in the US compared to their counterparts in
the UK and Europe. This led to a $5.4 billion settlement fund for affected
merchants.


HOW MUCH COMPENSATION CAN I EXPECT?

The amount of compensation you receive will depend on the total number of claims
filed and the specifics of your business transactions. The distribution will be
on a “pro-rata” basis, meaning it will be proportional to the number of claims
and the transaction volume. The amount will also depend on the actual or
estimated Visa and Mastercard interchange fees that each merchant paid between
January 1, 2004, and January 25, 2019, as well as the total settlement money
available minus the settlement cost.


DO I NEED TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS TO FILE A CLAIM?

No, you do not need to provide any financial documents. Working with the
designated law firm will allow them to access the Visa/MC portal directly to
retrieve necessary information on your behalf.


HOW LONG DOES THE CLAIMS PROCESS TAKE?

The initial step of completing the DocuSign agreement takes about 5-7 minutes.
After submission, the review and processing time can vary, but funds are
expected to be disbursed in the first half of next year.


ARE THERE ANY UPFRONT COSTS?

There are no upfront costs to file a claim. The law firm handling your claim
will take a 40% fee from any recovered funds, so you only pay if they
successfully recover funds for you.


WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE DOCUSIGN AGREEMENT?

The DocuSign agreement includes three pages:
• Page 1: Information about the settlement
• Page 2: Fee disclosure and business information
• Page 3: Limited Power of Attorney and additional business details


HOW CAN I START THE CLAIMS PROCESS?

To begin the claims process, fill out the form with your name, email address,
and the number of entities you wish to register. You will then receive the
DocuSign agreement to complete the process.
