Robinhood trade execution
If you had a Robinhood account between September 1, 2016, and September 1, 2018, and your market orders were filled at prices worse than the national best bid/offer — costing you more than $5 total — you're covered. If your Robinhood account is still active and in good standing, your share will be credited automatically. If your account is closed or not in good standing, you need to file a claim by July 13, 2026.
Approximately $17.60 per person after deductions from a $2 million settlement fund.
The settlement fund is $2 million. Based on plaintiff estimates, the average payout is $17.60 per person, but your actual amount depends on how much your trades were shortchanged compared to everyone else in the class.

What you need
If you have an active Robinhood account in good standing, no action is needed. Otherwise, file a claim at robinhoodorderflowsettlement.com by July 13, 2026. You'll likely need your Robinhood account details; specific proof requirements aren't listed, so the claim form itself will tell you exactly what's needed.
How to file this claim
- Confirm whether you still have an active Robinhood account — if yes, you will receive payment automatically with no action required.
- If your account is no longer active or you prefer a different payment method, visit the claim form URL and submit a completed claim form before the claim deadline.
- If you want to opt out and preserve your right to sue separately, submit an exclusion request; that deadline has already passed.
- Contact the Claims Administrator at 1-833-754-8881 or Kroll Settlement Administration LLC, P.O. Box 5324, New York, NY 10150-5324 with any questions.
Watch out for
- Active account holders who do nothing still receive automatic payment — filing a claim is only required for those without active accounts or who want an alternative payment method.
- The exclusion and objection deadlines have already passed, so opting out of this settlement is no longer possible.
- The specific fields and documentation required by the online claim form are not described in the available documents — visit the claim URL to see exactly what is requested.
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.

Common questions
Is the Robinhood trade execution settlement legitimate?
Yes — the Robinhood trade execution settlement is a real claims process that SettleSignal tracks from its official source. It is administered by Kroll Settlement Administration LLC under case 4:20-cv-09328-YGR in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. File only through the official settlement website (www.robinhoodorderflowsettlement.com); a genuine settlement administrator never charges a fee to file. SettleSignal last checked this record against the official source on June 19, 2026. Always confirm the current details on the official site before filing.
Who may qualify for this settlement?
U.S. customers who placed qualifying equity trades between September 1, 2016 and September 1, 2018, where execution prices deviated unfavorably from the National Best Bid/Offer by more than $5.00 in aggregate.
What is the claim deadline?
The claim deadline is July 13, 2026. Confirm the current deadline on the official settlement source before filing.
Do I need proof to claim?
Proof requirement: Yes. The settlement administrator determines what documentation, if any, is required.
What is the current payment status?
Current payment status: Final approval pending. Payments are issued by the administrator after the court process concludes.
When will Robinhood trade execution pay out?
Current payment status: Final approval pending. Class-action payouts typically begin only after final approval and any appeals. See our payout timeline guide.
Where is the official Robinhood trade execution claim form?
No claim form is needed — Active Robinhood account holders receive automatic pro rata distributions without filing a claim form. Never pay a fee to claim a settlement payment.
How do I know if my trades qualify?
Your orders had to be market orders (not stop orders) placed during market hours between September 1, 2016, and September 1, 2018, and filled at a price worse than the best national bid or offer at the time. The total gap across all qualifying trades also has to exceed $5. If you're not sure, file a claim and let the administrator sort it out.
I still have a Robinhood account. Do I need to do anything?
No — active accounts in good standing will receive a credit automatically. The only reason to file a form is if you want the payment sent to a different bank account via ACH instead.
My Robinhood account is closed. What do I do?
You need to submit a claim form at robinhoodorderflowsettlement.com by July 13, 2026. Without a filed claim, you won't receive any payment and you'll give up your right to sue Robinhood over these issues.
How much will I actually get?
The estimate is an average of $17.60, but the actual amount depends on how large your individual trading shortfall was compared to the total shortfall across all claimants. These are estimates only.
Can I still opt out or object?
The opt-out and objection deadlines were March 30, 2026, and the fairness hearing was May 5, 2026 — both have passed. At this point, filing a claim by July 13, 2026, is the relevant action if you haven't already.
