What is the Tapcheck Paycheck Advance Settlement about?
Lantern by Labaton is signing up new clients for individual arbitration claims related to Tapcheck paycheck advances. The page states consumers "may be entitled to up to $500 or more" depending on state law, and describes examples like a $100 advance with a $4.95 fee (implying a 14-day APR of ~129%). The claim theory is that Tapcheck's advances functioned like short-term payday loans that may violate state usury and consumer protection laws. No specific filing deadline is stated; eligibility varies by state and requires signing an attorney-client agreement. Attorney advertising intake: this is not a settled class action. Payout is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Submitting information does not guarantee eligibility, attorney representation, an attorney-client relationship, or any recovery; those outcomes depend on law-firm review, applicable law, and a separate agreement with counsel.
