Open class action settlements are cases where the filing period is currently active — meaning you can still submit a claim and receive money. Once the filing deadline passes, the case closes and claims are no longer accepted.

SettlementRadar tracks every active settlement and sorts them by filing deadline so you can prioritize the ones closing soonest. Most people qualify for several open settlements at any given time and don't even know it.

How to File an Open Settlement Claim

Filing is straightforward for most open settlements:

Click any settlement above to see full details and eligibility criteria.
Confirm you were a customer, employee, or user during the class period.
Submit your claim on the official settlement administrator's website (linked from each settlement page).
Wait — most settlements pay out 12–24 months after the deadline closes.

The best strategy is to file early on every settlement you qualify for, starting with those closing soonest. There is no downside to filing — it's free and takes 2–5 minutes per claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I qualify for an open settlement? +

Each settlement has specific eligibility criteria — typically you need to have been a customer, employee, or user of the company during the "class period" listed on the settlement page. Most open settlements allow you to self-certify your eligibility without submitting documentation.

How often are new settlements added? +

SettlementRadar adds new open settlements daily as cases reach the claims-filing stage. Subscribe to settlement alerts to get notified when new settlements you may qualify for are added.

What happens if I miss the deadline? +

If the filing deadline passes before you submit a claim, you forfeit your right to compensation from that settlement. Courts almost never extend deadlines after they close. That's why monitoring deadlines is critical — SettlementRadar sorts open settlements by upcoming deadline so you can file the most urgent ones first.

Can I file multiple open settlement claims at once? +

Yes — each settlement is a separate case. You can and should file claims in every settlement you qualify for. Most SettlementRadar users file 3–10 claims per year across different categories.

Is filing open settlement claims free? +

Yes — filing directly on a settlement administrator's claim form is always free. SettlementRadar also offers an optional $9.99 done-for-you filing service where we handle the paperwork on your behalf.
