Watch out for
- The $50 cash payment is subject to reduction based on how many people file — the final amount could be less.
- You can't take both the cash payment and the documented loss reimbursement. Pick one.
- Documented losses only count if they happened between October 18, 2024 and July 28, 2026.
- If you're bound by a Continental arbitration agreement from March 14, 2019 or July 18, 2023, you're not in the class.
- July 28, 2026 is the hard cutoff for both online submissions and postmarked mail.

Who may qualify for this settlement?

How much can I get from the Continental Cafe Data Incident settlement?
Alternative cash payment of up to $50.00 (pro rata), OR documented out-of-pocket losses up to $700. All class members can also claim 3 additional years of free credit monitoring. The exact amount you may receive is decided by the settlement administrator based on your valid claim and is not guaranteed; a total settlement-fund figure is shared among all eligible claimants, not paid to each person.
What is the claim deadline?

Do I need proof to claim?
Proof requirement: Optional. The settlement administrator determines what documentation, if any, is required.

How do I know if I'm included?
Check your mail for a notice dated November 12, 2024 from Continental Cafe Holdings about a data incident. If you got that letter and didn't sign an arbitration agreement with Continental in 2019 or 2023, you're in.
What's the difference between the $50 and the $700 option?
The $50 alternative payment doesn't require any proof, just a filed claim. The up-to-$700 option covers actual costs you personally paid because of the incident, like credit report fees, fraud-related expenses, or similar losses, but you have to back them up with real documents.
Can I get both the cash payment and the credit monitoring?
Yes. Whichever cash option you choose, you can also enroll in three years of free one-bureau credit monitoring and identity theft protection at no cost to you.
What if I lost my notice and don't have my LoginID or PIN?

- Check your email (including spam) and any mail from around when the settlement was announced — the Claim ID is usually printed right on the notice.
