Trader Joe's recently reached a $7.4 million class action settlement related to FACTA violations for printing credit/debit card receipts with excessive card information in 2019. Eligible customers who submit valid claims could receive around $102.45 pro rata, depending on the number of claims filed, with payouts expected within 45 days after final court approval and any appeals.
