How to File a Roundup Weedkiller Cancer Claim

Bayer set aside $10.9 billion to settle approximately 125,000 claims that its Roundup weedkiller caused non-Hodgkin lymphoma and other cancers. Here's everything you need to know to file your claim.

What Is the Roundup Weedkiller Cancer Settlement?

Bayer AG, which acquired Monsanto in 2018, has been facing massive litigation over claims that the active ingredient in Roundup (glyphosate) causes cancer, particularly non-Hodgkin lymphoma. After losing several high-profile jury verdicts, Bayer agreed to settle.

Individual settlement amounts vary based on the severity of cancer diagnosis, age, and extent of Roundup exposure.

The case was brought as a class action, meaning a group of consumers with similar claims sued collectively. Rather than go to trial, the defendant agreed to settle. Class members — people who were affected by the alleged conduct — are eligible to file a claim and receive a share of the settlement fund.

Who Is Eligible to File a Claim?

• Must have been exposed to Roundup or glyphosate-based products
• Must have been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma or related cancer
• Must provide medical documentation of diagnosis
• Payouts tiered by severity: Tier 1 (severe) receives the highest amounts

Required documentation:

• Medical records confirming cancer diagnosis (specifically non-Hodgkin lymphoma)
• Evidence of Roundup exposure (purchase records, employment records, declarations)
• Treatment history and ongoing medical expenses

How Much Can You Get?

Individual payouts are estimated at $5k–$200000k per person. The final amount each claimant receives depends on:

• The total number of valid claims filed
• Whether you have documentation supporting higher-tier compensation
• Attorney fees and administrative costs deducted from the fund
• Documented out-of-pocket losses (if applicable)

Filing is free and takes under 10 minutes. Even smaller payouts are worth claiming — there is no cost or risk to you.

How to File Your Roundup Weedkiller Cancer Claim — Step by Step

1. Go to the official claims website: Visit roundupsettlement.com/. This is the only authorized portal to file your claim. Avoid third-party sites that charge fees to "help" you file.

3. Complete the claim form: Provide your name, contact information, and any details about your relationship to the defendant. Gather any supporting documentation before you start.
4. Select your payment method: Most administrators offer check, PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, or virtual prepaid card. Choose whichever is most convenient.
5. Submit and save your confirmation: After submitting, you'll receive a confirmation number or email. Save it — you'll need it to check the status of your claim.

The filing process typically takes 5–10 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this settlement legitimate?

Yes. This is a court-supervised class action settlement. It is overseen by U.S. District Court, Northern District of California. The claims are administered by BrownGreer PLC. Filing is free and there is no obligation to accept the settlement if you prefer to pursue individual litigation.

Do I need a lawyer to file?

No. This is a class action — class counsel (the attorneys who filed the case) represents all class members. Filing your individual claim is free and does not require hiring a personal attorney.

How long until I get paid?

Payments are distributed after the settlement receives final court approval and all claims are processed. This typically takes several months to a year after the claims deadline. Be patient — the timeline is set by the court, not the administrator.

I already filed. Do I need to file again?

No. If you previously submitted a valid claim, you do not need to refile. Check your email for a prior confirmation from the settlement administrator.
