Here's how Hoosiers can share an estimated $10.5 million from Google settlement
Indiana residents are eligible to receive funds from a $700 million national settlement with Google over Google Play Store antitrust violations.Summary
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita announced that eligible Indiana residents, known as “Hoosiers,” can claim their share of an estimated $10.5 million resulting from a $700 million national settlement with Google. The lawsuit alleged that Google violated antitrust and consumer protection laws by monopolizing content on the Google Play Store, causing customers to pay more for apps between August 16, 2016, and September 30, 2023. Google is settling the case without admitting fault. Most individuals who made purchases through the Google Play Billing system during the specified period are automatically eligible and do not need to file a claim, but may need to submit information if their payment details are outdated or they prefer not to use PayPal or Venmo. Eligible claimants can expect to receive at least $2, with the exact amount depending on spending and the total number of claimants. Final settlement approval and fund disbursement are pending a court hearing on April 30, 2026.
