$15M Solitaire Cash bot players class action settlement

Papaya Gaming, creator of Solitaire Cash, Bubble Cash, Bingo Cash, 21 Cash and Triple Match Cash, agreed to a $15 million class action settlement to resolve claims that it misled players into believing its games were skill-based when they were not.

The settlement benefits individuals who had a Papaya account and made a deposit in one or more Papaya apps, including Solitaire Cash, between Jan. 1, 2019, and Sept. 5, 2024.

According to the class action lawsuit, Solitaire Cash, Bubble Cash, Bingo Cash and other games misled players into believing their matches were skill-based when they were not. The Papaya apps allegedly used “bots” in contests to make it seem like players were competing against one another.

The company has not admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to a $15 million class action lawsuit settlement to resolve the allegations.

Under the terms of the Solitaire Cash settlement, class members can receive a cash payment or an in-game cash distribution. Exact payments will vary depending on the number of participating class members and the amount each class member is entitled to receive.

Class members who submit a valid claim form and have not opted out of the settlement are entitled to receive a pro rata share of the net settlement fund.

Class members who have an active Papaya account will receive an in-game cash distribution without submitting a claim form.

The deadline for exclusion and objection is Jan. 30, 2026.

The final approval hearing for the Solitaire Cash settlement is scheduled for March 2, 2026.

To receive a payment from the settlement, class members must submit a valid claim form by Jan. 30, 2026.
