Amazon Prime Membership FTC Settlement
If you signed up for Amazon Prime or tried to cancel it between June 23, 2019 and June 23, 2025, you could get up to $51 from a $1.5 billion FTC settlement. Most people need to file a claim by July 27, 2026 — it won't happen automatically.
U.S. consumers who enrolled in Amazon Prime or attempted to cancel between June 23, 2019 and June 23, 2025 through Amazon's deceptive enrollment flows. Automatic refunds were sent to those who used three or fewer Prime benefits in any 12-month period; remaining eligible consumers can claim through July 27, 2026. Payout: Up to $51 per eligible consumer from a $1.5 billion refund pool. About 23 million consumers received automatic refunds in late 2025; everyone else who qualifies must file a claim by the claim deadline to be paid. Proof of purchase is optional. Claim deadline: July 27, 2026. Checked against the official settlement source by SettleSignal on June 9, 2026.
Who may qualify
You self-certify the basics when you file — the settlement administrator makes the final eligibility decision.
You may qualify if you're a U.S. consumer who enrolled in Amazon Prime, or tried to cancel it, at any point between June 23, 2019 and June 23, 2025, and Amazon's enrollment or cancellation process was deceptive. About 23 million people already received automatic refunds in late 2025 (those who used three or fewer Prime benefits in any 12-month period). If you weren't in that group but still qualify, you need to file a claim.

Important dates
How hard is this claim to file?
Watch out for
- Before filing, check your bank or payment records. If you already got an automatic refund in late 2025, you're not eligible to file a separate claim.
- The up to $51 figure isn't guaranteed — it can shrink depending on how many valid claims come in from the $1.5 billion pool.
- To have qualified for this settlement, you must not have used three or more Prime benefits in any 12-month period.
- July 27, 2026 is the hard cutoff for anyone who wasn't paid automatically. Miss it and you get nothing.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.

Who may qualify for this settlement?

How much can I get from the Amazon Prime Membership FTC settlement?
Up to $51 per eligible consumer from a $1.5 billion refund pool. About 23 million consumers received automatic refunds in late 2025; everyone else who qualifies must file a claim by the claim deadline to be paid.

The official claim form is hosted by the settlement administrator, Subscription Membership Settlement Administrator. Use the 'Open official claim form' button on this page — never pay a fee to file.
How do I know if I already got a refund?
If you used three or fewer Prime benefits in any 12-month period during the covered window, Amazon likely sent you an automatic refund in late 2025. Check your bank or credit card statements from that time, or your Amazon account for any credits.
What if I didn't get an automatic refund — can I still get money?
Yes. File a claim at subscriptionmembershipsettlement.com before July 27, 2026. If you enrolled in Prime or tried to cancel during the covered period and were affected by deceptive practices, you're in the eligible group.
Do I need any paperwork or receipts?
No proof is required. You can optionally attach supporting documents, but the claim form doesn't demand them.
What exactly did Amazon do wrong?
The FTC found that Amazon used deceptive sign-up flows to enroll people in Prime without their clear consent, and made cancellation deliberately difficult. This settlement resolves those allegations.
What happens if I miss the July 27, 2026 deadline?
Claims submitted after that date won't be accepted. The settlement covers a fixed pool of money, and only people who file valid claims on time will share in it.
