Krispy Kreme's $1.6M settlement can pay US customers $3,500 – how to claim your payment before upcoming deadline
Summary
Krispy Kreme has agreed to a $1,616,760 settlement to resolve a class-action lawsuit stemming from a data breach in November 2024. The breach allegedly exposed sensitive consumer information, including names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, and financial account access details. While the company denies any wrongdoing, the settlement aims to compensate affected individuals residing in the United States.
Impacted customers may be eligible for varying levels of compensation. Those who can provide documentation proving financial losses due to fraud or identity theft resulting from the breach may receive up to $3,500. Conversely, class members without such documentation are eligible for a smaller payment of $75.
To receive these funds, claim forms must be submitted online or postmarked by the deadline of June 22, 2026. Claims submitted after this date will be considered untimely and may not be accepted.
