Amazon agreed to a $2.5 billion settlement with the FTC to resolve claims that it violated the Restore Online Shoppers’ Confidence Act in connection with its Prime membership. The settlement benefits consumers who signed up for Amazon Prime between June 23, 2019, and June 23, 2025, under specific conditions. The relevant class period is generally described as 6/23/2019 through 6/23/2025. Where administrators publish revisions, amended deadlines, or supplemental notices, this page should be treated as a directional guide and the official claim portal remains the source of truth for filing requirements.

Purchaser scope is currently listed as Indirect Consumer. Named or covered vendors include Amazon.com Inc.. Covered products/services currently reference Amazon Prime, subscription fees.

The reported settlement fund is approximately $2,500,000,000. Individual recovery is usually determined by claim volume, documentation strength, and any pro-rata formula approved by the court. In many settlements, payout timing can range from several weeks to multiple months after claim validation. Filing early and submitting complete information often helps avoid avoidable delays when administrators perform audits or deficiency checks.

Documentation may not be mandatory for all class members, but submitting purchase records can still help reduce follow-up requests. Current eligibility language: Consumers who signed up for Amazon Prime between June 23, 2019, and June 23, 2025, and who either enrolled through a challenged enrollment flow and used no more than three Prime benefits in any 12-month period or unintentionally enrolled through a challenged enrollment method. Filing deadline tracking matters because late claims can be rejected automatically; plan to submit by 7/27/2026 unless the administrator publishes an extension.

Practical filing workflow: confirm your transactions, gather supporting records, submit the online claim form, and store your confirmation number for follow-up.
