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.

Please ad me and my wife, Janice. Been buying for years. Thanks, Billy
Who keeps receipts for coffee??
I’m a user of these products daily but the only proof is my machine in my kitchen. Or the KCup holder I keep stocked with different brands and flavors.
So it looks as if I should start saving my receipts forever. I have purchased many Keurig K-Cups and other brands over the years. I’m on my second Keurig machine.I don’t think I’ll see anything from this class action because I don’t save every single receipt after I go to a grocery store. Having a family I would have one room dedicated to being full of receipts which I could probably never find the right ones when needed even if I had saved all of my receipts
Question! Does this include all types and brands of coffee bought in a k-kup designed for Keurig Coffee makers or does only include Keurig brand coffee, tea, and hot chocolate?
