Papa Murphy’s has agreed to pay $22.6 million to resolve allegations that the take-and-bake pizza company violated federal law by sending unwanted text messages to potential customers.
If you received an advertising text from Papa Murphy’s between Oct. 16, 2013 and June 15, 2015, you could get $10 in cash and $10 in online order vouchers from this class action settlement.
Plaintiff John Lennartson filed the Papa Murphy’s class action lawsuit in 2015 after allegedly receiving a text that read “Papa Murphy’s: Today only 4/6/15. A Big Deal for the Big Game! Get a $10 Lg 5-Meat Stuffed Pizza. Valid @ participating Stores. Msg & Data Rates May Apply. STOP to end.”
Lennartson said the unwanted advertising text message was sent in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act because it was transmitted to his cell phone without his express consent.
The Papa Murphy’s TCPA class action lawsuit was fought repeatedly by the pizza chain before the parties eventually used a mediator to reach the current settlement.
According to the Papa Murphy’s class action settlement, the company will pay $11.3 million in cash and provide as much as $11.3 million in Papa Murphy’s vouchers to resolve the allegations. Class Members who file a valid and timely claim will receive $10 in cash as well as two $5 online order vouchers.
“The settlement here is the product of good-faith bargaining at arm’s-length and was negotiated over many months and through a formal mediation conducted by a well respected mediator,” the plaintiffs said in their motion for preliminary approval of the Papa Murphy’s class action settlement. “Thus, the settlement here is the product of hard-fought adversarial negotiations between the parties.”
Class Members who want to object to the terms of the Papa Murphy’s TCPA class action settlement or want to opt out of it, must do so no later than Aug. 14, 2018.
Who’s Eligible

i got the card in the mail for the coupon codes used the but never got the 10.00 Check in the mail…
Postcard received with voucher codes that do not work on papamurphys.com online ordering system. The number referenced on the postcard has been disconnected. The lawsuit URL was not renewed and forwards to a shady landing page. Does there need to be another class action lawsuit against the lawyers to get our vouchers?
I got the same… what do we do?
I have attempted to use the voucher codes to no avail. I called the number on the postcard (844-620-2501) and was told all $5 codes had to be used by December 2018. Wasn’t fully settled until January 2019 or later. Questionable.
