What Makes a Settlement "Easy" to Claim?

We ranked settlements on three factors:

  • No proof required: You don't need receipts, bank statements, or any documentation
  • Broad eligibility: If you've used the product or service, you likely qualify
  • Simple claim form: Just your name, email, and confirmation — under 5 minutes

All 10 settlements below meet all three criteria. They're essentially free money for a few minutes of your time.
