Fairlife Milk Settlement Has Started Paying: Do They Owe You Money?

The Krazy Coupon Lady is an independent service supported by advertising. Most of the offers appearing on our site are from companies from which we receive compensation.

Fairlife milk was part of a $21 million class action lawsuit, which settled in 2022. Fairlife and Fair Oaks Farm were sued for their advertising about the ethical treatment of the cows used for their dairy products, which some customers alleged wasn’t accurate. The dairies have admitted no wrongdoing, but they did agree on the settlement.

Customers filed their claims, and the filing deadline came and went in December 2022. Now, the funds from Coca-Cola (Fairlife’s parent company) and Fair Oaks Farm are starting to roll out.

So, when did payments start? How much were they? We have everything you need to know.

And if you missed this settlement, no problem — there are lots more class action settlements for you to browse, many that don’t require proof!

 

How much money is each person getting?

When the settlement was approved, it promised 25% of the purchase price of your Fairlife products back.

But if you don’t have a receipt or other valid proof of purchase, the most you can get is $20. If you do have a receipt, the most you can get is $80 (although some confusing language on the settlement website says you could actually get up to $100).

I filed a no-proof claim last year, and received an email on Wednesday, Sept. 20, letting me know that my payment of $13.24 was ready. I just had to click a link to complete the funds transfer.

 

If you got the email, you need to collect your payout by Nov. 18, 2023.

Sure, you might’ve made the original claim deadline. But you won’t get paid if you don’t click the “Claim Payment” button in your email by Nov. 18, 2023. Even if you had a successful claim, if you don’t take that last step to get your funds, you won’t get paid.
