Amazon customers eligible for a $2.5 billion settlement can claim up to $51 in refunds due to issues with Prime subscription cancellations.Summary
Amazon is offering refunds, up to $51, to customers as part of a $2.5 billion settlement with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The FTC accused Amazon of intentionally making it difficult for users to cancel their Prime subscriptions. The settlement includes $1.5 billion for customer refunds and requires Amazon to cease unlawful enrollment and cancellation practices. Millions of eligible customers will receive automatic payments, while others must file a claim through the settlement website. The claims process is currently in its second phase, with a deadline to submit claims by July 23, 2026. Amazon admitted no wrongdoing but agreed to make clearer disclosures about Prime subscription terms and obtain explicit consent before charging customers. FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson called the agreement a “monumental win” for consumers, stating the agency is committed to protecting them from deceptive practices.
