Open Gambling Class Action Settlements by Deadline: Fund, Claim Form, Proof Needed

This list is complete for gambling and for nothing else: every settlement with a consumer claim process in the record appears here, sorted by deadline, and a settlement that is not here does not accept claims.

The four tables hold what is open, what is paying, what was approved without a deadline and what closed. Filing a claim is free; we are not a law firm and not an administrator, and every per-person figure on this page is an estimate with its formula shown.

Deadlines are read from the preliminary approval orders and the administrators' sites; High 5 dates are per the settlement site because the amending order was not retrieved (FLAGGED); the New York deadline is derived from paragraph 18 of the agreement (FLAGGED) and no request form is published (OPEN); checked 14 November 2026.

Claims open now, by deadline

4 US consumer settlements accept claims as of 14 November 2026: the Pulsz six-state settlement until 30 November 2026, the High 5 Games Washington settlement until 4 January 2027 per the settlement site, and the New York Attorney General's VGW Sweeps Coin redemption until 31 August 2027, which is an administrative settlement, not a court case.

A Maltese liquidation also invites player-balance claims with no published deadline. The three sit in two of the 19 categories of all gambling lawsuits by category.

Every settlement here uses one formula: a member's share is the gross fund plus interest, less fees, costs, administration, incentive awards and taxes, times the member's recognized spend over all valid claimants' recognized spend.

For Pulsz the estimated cash election is 23 percent of net spend before deductions, about USD 150 to 230 on USD 1,000 after pro rata deductions, with fees requested up to 30 percent.

High 5 cannot be estimated until claims are counted: the floor is USD 12,000,000, less a fee request of up to 35 percent, shared pro rata on purchases.

The New York figure is the cash value of Sweeps Coins held on 2 June 2025, about USD 1 per coin, not paid from the USD 8,000,000 to the State. Try your own numbers in the gambling settlement payout per person calculator.

What "proof needed" means for each open settlement

Pulsz class members in the six states receive the default Gold Coins benefit with no form, and only the cash election needs a form on ysisettlement.com by 30 November 2026, with deficiencies curable for 28 days after the election deadline.

High 5 needs a claim form on high5lawsuit.com for in-app purchases by Washington players from 9 April 2014 to 1 October 2022; deficient forms are curable for 28 days after the 4 January 2027 deadline per the settlement site.

New York residents who did not receive the 2025 phase-out notice request redemption from VGW for Sweeps Coins held on 2 June 2025; no request form or administrator has been published. Steps for any claim are in how to file a claim in a gambling settlement.

Approved, payments going out

1 settlements have paid or are paying as of 14 November 2026, and no new claim can be filed in any of them. They include the USD 10,000,000 DraftKings NFT settlement, the SciPlay six-state settlement, paying from 6 March 2026, and the USD 70,000,000 Wynn Resorts securities settlement, first distributed on 29 April 2026.

Gambling settlements since 2021 paid 69 to 196 days after final approval, as measured in how long gambling settlements take from filing to payment.

Settled, deadline not yet set

0 settled matters carry no consumer claim deadline, most because they never had a consumer payout: regulator fines, forfeitures and commercial settlements are resolved by payment to the state or the other party.

The consumer settlements here were fully distributed (Crown China-arrests, AUD 125,000,000 gross fund), paid in game currency (Epic's loot llama, USD 26,500,000) or paid under an earlier procedure (SciPlay Washington, the daily fantasy sports MDL).

The proposed Amazon social casino settlement has no preliminary approval order found as of 14 November 2026, and the Genshin Impact FTC order has no claim process. A settlement without a court order has no deadline and no form; see claim, exclusion and objection deadlines explained.

Closed in the last 12 months

0 gambling settlements closed their claim windows between 14 November 2025 and 14 November 2026, and some of them have no final approval order in the record yet.

Playstudios closed its election window on 21 October 2026 and SpinX Kentucky on 16 February 2026, and neither approval outcome is confirmed in the court record; Papaya Gaming closed on 30 January 2026 and its approval rests on aggregator reports. SciPlay closed on 4 November 2025 and is paid.

No new claims are accepted in any of them. Every earlier settlement is on gambling settlements by year and amount.

How this tracker is built

Every row is a query over the case records: a settlement enters the open table when its status is claims-open or its deadline is today or later, moves to paying when a payment is recorded, and to closed when the deadline passes.

Days left are counted against the build day. The CSV carries stable ids under CC BY 4.0 at open data: download the case database.

198 of 207 statuses are read from an order, docket or filed complaint; aggregator pages are leads, never the sole source. Claim sites are named as in the court notice and never hosted, and administrators come from the appointing order, listed under settlement administrators handling gambling cases.

Questions people ask

How do I know if I am owed money from a gambling settlement?

You are covered only if you fall inside a class definition in a court order: a state of residence, an app, a purchase window; the three open ones define theirs by state and purchase dates. Check yours with the gambling settlement eligibility checker.

Is a settlement website that emailed me legitimate?

The only official claim sites for gambling settlements are those named in the court's preliminary approval order: ysisettlement.com and high5lawsuit.com as of 14 November 2026; an email asking for a fee or bank login is not one of them. See how to spot fake settlement and claim sites.

Is there a Chumba Casino settlement I can still claim?

No Chumba class settlement is open: the Kentucky settlement closed its claims on 6 March 2023, and New York residents can request cash for Sweeps Coins held on 2 June 2025 until 31 August 2027 under the Attorney General's agreement. More:

• VGW (Chumba Casino, LuckyLand Slots) lawsuits
• class action payout per person in gambling settlements

Out of scope on this page

This page does not track settlements outside gambling (such as the Google USD 700 million payout), "no proof of purchase" or "unclaimed money" listicles, how to gamble or operator reviews. No gambling-addiction class settlement with a consumer payout is in the record, and this site files no claim and hosts no claim form.
