What this checker does
It matches your state and the operator you used against the settlements and certified classes on record and shows the class definition for each match. It does not file anything and cannot tell you that you are in a class; only the court-approved notice can.
No gambling settlement covers everyone who played at an online casino or sportsbook; as of 14 November 2026 three settlements accept claims, each limited to named states, games and dates, and this checker tests your state and operator against the 13 settlements and certified classes on record and shows the class definition that decides.
A match is a possible match: the court-approved notice decides, and every per-person figure is a payout estimate with its formula. Filing a claim is free; we are not a law firm or an administrator, and no claim form is hosted here.
Who is covered today: the three settlements accepting claims
The Pulsz six-state settlement covers anyone who spent money on Pulsz or Pulsz Bingo while in Alabama from 8 March 2022, Tennessee from 12 November 2022, Kentucky from 29 June 2023, or Ohio, New Jersey and Massachusetts from 19 February 2024, each through 31 August 2026, with an election deadline of 30 November 2026. The High 5 and New York definitions are in the table below.
The New York settlement is administrative, not a court case, and has no request form published. A reader outside these states has nothing open today; every live deadline is sorted in open gambling class action settlements by deadline.
| Settlement | Who is covered (class definition, core) | States | Period | Election or claim deadline |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pulsz six-state settlement, GL-US-0202 | All persons who spent money on Pulsz or Pulszbingo while in the named states | AL, TN, KY, OH, NJ, MA | From 8 Mar 2022 to 31 Aug 2026, start date by state | Election 30 Nov 2026 at ysisettlement.com |
| High 5 Games Washington settlement, GL-US-0010 | All individuals in Washington who played or purchased virtual coins in High 5 Casino or High 5 Vegas | WA | After 9 Apr 2014 and before 1 Oct 2022 | Claims to 4 Jan 2027 per high5lawsuit.com |
| New York Attorney General VGW redemption, GL-US-0225 | New York residents with Sweeps Coins in a VGW account on 2 June 2025 who did not receive the 2025 notice | NY | Balance on 2 Jun 2025 | Redemption to 31 Aug 2027, administrative settlement, not a court case |
Coverage follows the class definitions in the court-authorized notices, not residence alone; read the definition before filing.
What to enter: the place you played, the operator, the years
Choose the country and, for the United States, the state where you were when you played, then type the operator or game brand, and optionally the first and last year you played.
| Field | What the checker does with it | Where the record gets it |
|---|---|---|
| Country | Limits matches to settlements in that country | The court of the case |
| State (United States) | Matches the case's own state and every state named in the class definition or the statutes pleaded, so the Alabama-filed Pulsz settlement matches six states | Class definition text and pleadings |
| Operator | Matches defendant names and brand names such as Pulsz, Chumba, High 5 and DraftKings | Defendants and company hubs |
| First and last year | Drops a case if your first year is after its status date, or your last year is more than ten years before it was filed | The checker's own rough filter, not a legal rule |
| Name, email, spend | Not asked | Not applicable |
How to read a match: the class definition decides
A match means the record holds a settlement or certified class for that operator and place; whether you are a class member depends on the class definition shown under it, which names the games, the period, the place and sometimes a minimum spend.
The official claim site named in the court notice is the only place to file; see how to file a claim in a gambling settlement.
"While located in" or "resident of"
Most gambling settlement classes are defined by where you were when you played, not where you live: Pulsz, SciPlay and Playstudios cover people who spent money "while in" the named states, and High 5, Playtika and Huuuge cover play while in Washington, whereas Zynga, Armstead and the Kentucky settlements cover residents.
Spend thresholds, default benefits and elections
Three Kentucky settlements required USD 5 or more spent within a 24-hour period in the class period, and the Pulsz, SciPlay and Playstudios settlements pay a default benefit in coins or virtual currency with no form at all, cash only on election by the deadline.
In Pulsz the default is 27 percent of net purchases in Gold Coins and the cash election pays 23 percent.
An estimated share is the net fund times your recognized spend over all valid claimants' spend, which the gambling settlement payout per person calculator works through with your own figures.
Closed, pending or paid: what the other matches mean
A match marked "Claims closed", "Settlement finally approved" with a past deadline, or "Payments made" accepts no new claims: DoubleDown closed on 11 April 2023, Big Fish on 4 January 2021, the Chumba and LuckyLand Kentucky settlement on 6 March 2023, MGM on 3 June 2025, DraftKings NFT on 21 July 2025, SciPlay six-state on 4 November 2025 and Papaya on 30 January 2026.
A pending lawsuit never appears in these results because it has no claim procedure. Each deadline type is explained in claim, exclusion and objection deadlines explained.
| Settlement | Covered | Claim or election deadline | Status as of 14 November 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DoubleDown Casino settlement | All individuals in the United States | 11 Apr 2023 | Settlement finally approved |
| Big Fish Casino settlement | All persons in the United States | 4 Jan 2021 | Settlement finally approved |
| Chumba and LuckyLand Kentucky settlement | Kentucky residents, USD 5 or more in 24 hours | 6 Mar 2023 | Claims closed |
| MGM data breach settlement | US residents whose data was exposed | 3 Jun 2025 | Claims closed |
| DraftKings NFT securities settlement | Persons transacting in NFTs in a DraftKings account | 21 Jul 2025 | Payments made |
| SciPlay six-state settlement | Players in six states "while in" | 4 Nov 2025 | Payments made from 6 Mar 2026 |

| Playtika Washington settlement | Players while located in Washington | 4 Jan 2021 | Claims closed |
Operators with no settlement on record
No settlement, no claim form and no payout date exist for Stake.us, FanDuel, BetMGM or Roblox players as of 14 November 2026, and no gambling-addiction lawsuit against any operator has ever paid a class.
The two DraftKings addiction suits, Fischer and the New Jersey family-savings suit, settled individually in July 2025 with terms not in the record and no claim process; see gambling addiction lawsuits: suing operators for duty-of-care failures.
Stake.us has 0 records and none has settled; several were sent to arbitration or stayed. For FanDuel and DraftKings the only payments were the Dufoe NFT settlement (paid), the daily-fantasy multidistrict litigation and a site credit. BetMGM has no settlement in our record, and Roblox has three suits, none settled.
How this checker is built
The checker runs in the browser over a data file rebuilt from the case records at every build, holds only settlement and certified-class records, and stores nothing you type. An empty result states the as-of date. It is one of the lists and tools in trackers: open claims, deadlines and new filings.
"No match" means none is on record for that operator and place as of the build date, not that none exists. The records and the CSV are published as open data under CC BY 4.0.
Questions people ask
How do I know if I am owed money from a gambling class action?
Only a court-authorized notice or the administrator named in the approval order can tell you that you are a class member. This checker tells you which settlements on record name your state and operator, so you know which notice to read.
Can I get compensation for gambling?
Not from any addiction or duty-of-care lawsuit so far; the settlements that paid players are the virtual-chip and sweepstakes cases above. See can you get gambling losses back? what courts have ordered.
Is it illegal for a casino to refuse to pay me?
That is a different question from settlement eligibility, answered case by case by the courts: can you sue a casino or sportsbook that refuses to pay.
Am I eligible for a casino settlement in California or Oregon?
No open gambling settlement covers California or Oregon residents as of 14 November 2026; the last nationwide settlements that did, Papaya and DoubleDown, closed on 30 January 2026 and 11 April 2023. See every gambling lawsuit in California.
Is there a Stake.us, FanDuel or DraftKings settlement payout per person?
There is no settlement, no claim form and no payout date for Stake.us or FanDuel players, and for DraftKings only the NFT securities settlement has paid.
- Every case against the brand is listed in Stake.us lawsuits.
- The FanDuel record is in FanDuel lawsuits.
- The DraftKings record is in DraftKings lawsuits.
