If you have accepted card payments in your business, you could be eligible to considerable compensation.

A federal appeals court upheld a $5 billion antitrust class-action settlement with more than 12 million retailers, that accused Visa and MasterCard of improperly fixing credit and debit card fees.

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan rejected claims that a class action should not have been certified because of confusion over who deserved compensation.

Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs said that although their dispute may need to be resolved in court, it was "no reason" to delay payouts to other class members.

The claims upheld are, that Visa and MasterCard overcharged retailers on interchange fees (swipe fees) when shoppers used credit or debit cards, and barred retailers from directing customers toward cheaper means of payment.

If you do not receive compensation, you DO NOT pay anything. Plus, any law firm we refer your claim to, will always ensure you receive the majority of any compensation paid.
