WASHINGTON HOSPITALITY ASSOCIATION & CLASS ACTION CAPITAL PARTNERSHIP PORTAL
Washington Hospitality Association has partnered with Class Action Capital, a market leader in class action settlement claim management. Class Action Capital is already successfully working with a very large number of hotels, restaurants, and state associations across the country, helping to recover substantial refunds on their behalf from several recent class action settlements. WHA will now offer these value-added services to its members.
Many restaurants and hotels do not have the time, resources, or relevant data available to file a settlement claim. Class Action Capital will work with you to submit a fully comprehensive claim recovery.
Class Action Capital’s pricing model is simple – we work on a commission basis whereby we receive a percentage of the client’s financial recovery. Once you sign up for our claim management service, we will immediately get to work building and preparing a comprehensive claim.
We work to best position each client’s recovery from a settlement while minimizing their time, use of internal resources, and the risk of error if they were to manage claims on their own. Please see below for a listing of applicable settlements and our claim authorization form.
Settlement Opportunities
Payment Card Antitrust Litigation $5.54 Billion
This settlement resolves allegations that VISA, MasterCard and their issuing banks violated the law by charging excessive interchange fees to merchants. The settlement received final approval on December 13, 2019 and the settlement fund is approximately $5.54 billion. Your organization is likely eligible for a refund if you accepted VISA or MasterCard branded credit or debit cards as a form of payment between January 1, 2004 – January 25, 2019.
Claim forms are available beginning December 1, 2023, when they will be delivered and available online. Class members need not sign up for a third-party service in order to participate in any monetary relief. No-cost assistance is available from the Class Administrator and Class Counsel during the claims-filing period. Class members may visit www.paymentcardsettlement.com, the Court-approved website for this case for additional information. The claim filing deadline is May 31, 2024.
