Keurig has agreed to pay $31 million to resolve claims it violated antitrust laws by fixing the price of its Keurig K-Cup Portion Packs products.
The settlement benefits individuals who purchased Keurig K-Cup Portion Packs from retailers other than Keurig between Sept. 7, 2010, and Aug. 14, 2020, in all states other than Mississippi and Rhode Island; between March 24, 2011, and Aug. 14, 2020, in Mississippi; or between July 15, 2013, and Aug. 14, 2020, in Rhode Island.
Claims against Keurig were consolidated in June 2014. According to the plaintiffs in the eight consolidated class action lawsuits, Keurig violated antitrust laws in order to monopolize the market for single-serve coffee pods. This monopoly allegedly allowed the company to artificially fix the price of Keurig K-Cup Portion Packs products — subjecting consumers to financial strain that wouldn’t exist in a healthy market.
In December 2017, these claims were preserved by a federal judge who denied the company’s motion for dismissal.
Keurig has not admitted any wrongdoing in the case but has agreed to a $31 million Keurig K-Cup Portion Packs class action settlement. The settlement provides reimbursement for Keurig K-Cup purchases in the form of cash payments. Reimbursement rates will vary from 0.75% to 100% depending on the state the purchase was made in and whether proof of purchase was submitted with a claim.
In order to benefit from the settlement, Class Members must file a valid claim form by July 15, 2021. Proof of purchase of Keurig K-Cup purchases and information about these purchases (number of K-Cups purchased, price paid, state where purchase took place, brand name, etc.) is required to validate claims.
The deadline for exclusion is May 14, 2021. The deadline for objection is May 17, 2021. The final approval hearing for the settlement is scheduled for June 4, 2021.

The claims administrator filed an update with the court before the claims deadline providing their expected billing costs through March 2022. They also stated that they didn’t expect that to be the end of the administration process and that they would provide the court with another update once they had a better idea of the amount of information that they would have to comb through and audit. They definitely aren’t going to pay out this year.
That is not true they have to request Court approval not to make a payment of all claims within 60 days
We had purchased cases of Victor Allen k cups in quantities of 80/100 and 200 for a few years and used the sturdy boxes for packing/ storage, etc. Naturally, like most others, we had no receipts so cut out and sent the POP, bar code and exp dates from several boxes to send with the completed claim forms. Not sure it’ll work but it was worth a shot!
Please add me as I bought alot of the K-cups in the past
took me 5 hrs to do my dads last night, and they didn’t add the option to save and come back to it, and the form will time out if you leave it, erasing all your entries. my dad had almost 5K in proof, because I requested his purchase history from bjs and sams club, but then when I went to do it back in feb-march they had put a hold on, and I just saw they reopened it and the deadline was today. good thing I got his in and mine from costco and amazon the other night! one good thing about club memerships is they keep about 9-10 years of purchase history on file.
