This proposed settlement concerns purchases of virtual chips in eight Playstudios casino-themed games by players in six states during specified periods. Eligible players automatically receive an in-game-currency benefit unless they timely elect a money transfer. Playstudios denies wrongdoing, and the Court must still decide whether to approve the settlement.

Questions & Answers
Which players may be included?
Eligibility depends on the game, the state where the person played, and the state-specific date range. Spending money on a listed game is required.
- Alabama: March 8, 2022 through June 30, 2026.
- Ohio and Massachusetts: July 26, 2022 through June 30, 2026.
- New Jersey: January 2, 2024 through June 30, 2026.
- Tennessee: November 12, 2022 through June 30, 2026.
- Kentucky: July 5, 2018 through June 29, 2023.
How do the two benefit options differ?
Doing nothing leads to an automatic virtual-currency benefit. Filing a timely Election Form requests a smaller percentage as a money transfer instead. Both percentages are reduced by the deductions listed in the notice.
- Automatic option: 27% of eligible spending in virtual currency, paid in installments over two years.
- Election option: 23% of eligible spending by check or electronic payment.
Could the money-transfer election be reduced?
Yes. Money transfers are collectively limited to 17% of the Total Settlement Amount. If that cap reduces a person’s money transfer, the notice says the reduction will be provided in virtual currency. The notice does not state the Total Settlement Amount.
How do I choose the money-transfer option?
Submit a valid Election Form online or by mail no later than October 21, 2026. No election is needed for the automatic virtual-currency benefit.
What happens if I do nothing?
You receive the virtual-currency benefit and remain bound by the settlement, including the release of the covered claims.
How do I leave the settlement?
Send the required exclusion request no later than October 21, 2026. Leaving the settlement gives up all settlement benefits but preserves any right to pursue the covered claims separately.
- The request must identify the case and include your contact information, related game identifiers or email addresses, and your individual ink signature.
- The notice permits email, mail, or other delivery to the Settlement Administrator using the listed instructions.
When could benefits be sent?
The final approval hearing is scheduled for November 10, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Money transfers are expected within 60 days after final approval and completion of any appeals. Checks expire 90 days after issuance. The notice says virtual coins are delivered in installments over two years.
