Dapper Labs $5M NFT Privacy Class Action Lawsuit Settlement, How Much You Could Get

If you had an active account on NBA Top Shot, NFL All Day, Disney Pinnacle, UFC Strike, or La Liga Golazos at any point between June 15, 2020, and January 30, 2025, you may qualify for a cash payment from a $5 million class action settlement. Claims must be filed online or postmarked by April 15, 2026, at dappervppaclassactionsettlement.com.

What This Lawsuit Is About

A proposed settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit claiming that Dapper Labs, Inc. disclosed its online subscribers’ personally identifiable information (PII) to various third parties without consent, in violation of the Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA).

The VPPA is a federal law, originally passed in 1988, that prohibits companies from sharing subscribers’ video viewing information with outside parties without their consent. The third-party companies Dapper shared user data with included Meta, Google, Microsoft, Snapchat, Reddit, X, and TikTok. Dapper Labs denies that it violated any law but has agreed to the settlement to avoid the uncertainties and expenses associated with continuing the case.

Settlement Amount Breakdown: The Complete Math

Defendant has created a Gross Settlement Amount totaling $5,000,000.00. All payments to Settlement Class Members, the cost to administer the Settlement, the cost to inform people about the Settlement, attorneys’ fees, and an award to the Class Representatives will also come out of this amount.

Here is where the money goes, using the maximum figures disclosed in settlement documents:

These are maximum deduction figures. If the court approves lower fees or costs come in under budget, more money flows to claimants. The court has final say on all deductions.

Who Qualifies

You are included in the settlement if you held an active account with a Dapper Labs website including nflallday.com, disneypinnacle.com, ufcstrike.com, nbatopshot.com, and laligagolazos.com from June 15, 2020, through January 30, 2025.

You do not need to have purchased an NFT. An active account on any of these platforms during the class period is sufficient to qualify. You must be a person in the United States to be included in the class.

Who Is NOT Eligible

The following people are excluded from the settlement: the judge overseeing the case and her employees; Dapper Labs, Inc., any entity in which Dapper Labs, Inc. has a controlling interest, and any of Dapper Labs’ subsidiaries, parents, affiliates, officers, directors, and employees; any persons who, as of the date of the settlement, have provided notice to Dapper Labs of claims relating to the action; any persons who have already released claims relating to the action; and any persons who timely opt out of the Settlement Class.

Also excluded: people who only accessed the NBA Top Shot platform and separately filed or settled claims under the related Fan v. NBA Properties, Inc. VPPA lawsuit, which was a distinct settlement for $7.05 million that had its own claim deadline of December 16, 2025 — that deadline has passed. That settlement was limited to users who specifically had a Facebook account linked to their NBA Top Shot use. The Dapper VPPA settlement (Ohebshalom) is broader — it covers all five platforms and all seven tracking technologies listed above.

Payment Calculation: How Much Could You Get?

Step 1: The Payment System

This is a pro rata, capped settlement. Every valid claim receives an equal share of the net fund — but the payment is capped at $5.00 per claimant. The final amount each person receives depends entirely on how many valid claims are filed.

Step 2: How the Cap Works

Class members can submit to receive a pro rata cash payment of up to $5. Final payment amount will be determined by the total number of claims filed.

If relatively few claims are filed, each claimant receives the full $5.00. If a very large number of claims are filed, the pro rata share may be less than $5.00. There is no minimum guaranteed amount.

Step 3: Payment Examples with Real Numbers

The estimated net fund for claimants is approximately $3,163,333 (after maximum deductions). Here is how the math works at different claim volumes:

Note: These are illustrative estimates only. The net fund figure assumes the court approves all maximum deductions. If attorney fees or admin costs are lower, the per-claimant payment rises accordingly.

Step 4: What Remains Unknown

The exact payment amount cannot be confirmed until: (1) the court approves the settlement and all fee requests on April 15, 2026; (2) the claim period closes and valid claims are counted; and (3) any appeals are resolved. Payments are issued approximately 75 days after final court approval.

What Else You Should Know

On taxes: Depending on how the IRS treats your payment, you may have a tax reporting obligation. This article does not provide tax advice. Consult a tax professional if you have questions about how the payment affects your taxes.

On opting out: If you exclude yourself from the settlement, you must mail your opt-out request to the administrator by April 15, 2026. If you don’t exclude yourself, you give up any right to sue Dapper Labs for the claims being resolved by this settlement.

On doing nothing: If you do not file a claim, you receive no payment and still give up your right to sue Dapper Labs over these specific VPPA claims. Filing a claim is the only way to receive money.

On tracking pixels: As part of the settlement, Dapper Labs is required to suspend operation of the Facebook Pixel, the Google Pixel, the Microsoft Bing Pixel, the Snapchat Pixel, the Twitter Pixel, and the TikTok Pixel on any pages on its websites where those pixels would capture the title of a video purchased or viewed, unless the VPPA is changed or overturned by a court. This is a privacy protection that benefits all users, whether or not they file a claim.

Common filing mistake: Do not skip the account verification step. Claims submitted without a valid username and email address, or without an account screenshot, will be considered invalid and disqualified.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much will I get from the Dapper Labs settlement? A: The cap is $5.00 per person, but the actual amount depends on how many valid claims are filed. If claim volume is very high, your share may be less than $5.00. There is no guaranteed minimum.

Q: When will I be paid? A: Payments will be issued to approved claimants approximately 75 days after the court grants final approval of the settlement. The final approval hearing is scheduled for April 15, 2026.

Q: Do I need proof that I bought an NFT to file a claim? A: No. You only need to show you had an active account on one of the five Dapper Labs platforms during the class period. NFT purchases are not required.

Q: Which platforms are covered by this settlement? A: The five platforms covered are NFL All Day (nflallday.com), Disney Pinnacle (disneypinnacle.com), UFC Strike (ufcstrike.com), NBA Top Shot (nbatopshot.com), and La Liga Golazos (laligagolazos.com).

Q: What privacy violations does this settlement cover? A: The settlement covers Dapper Labs’ alleged practice of using tracking pixels from Meta, Google, Microsoft, Snapchat, Reddit, X, and TikTok to share subscribers’ personally identifiable information — including what videos they viewed or purchased — without obtaining their consent, in violation of the federal Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA).

Q: I already filed a claim in the NBA Top Shot Facebook privacy settlement. Can I also file here? A: Possibly, if your account on one of the other four platforms (NFL All Day, Disney Pinnacle, UFC Strike, or La Liga Golazos) was active during the class period. The two settlements are separate cases. However, if your only Dapper platform was NBA Top Shot and you already released your claims in the prior settlement, review the exclusions section carefully or contact the administrator.

Q: Can I still file if I no longer have access to my account? A: You need to be able to provide your account username and associated email, or a screenshot showing you were an account holder. If you no longer have account access but remember your username and email, you can still file. Contact the administrator at 1-888-887-2497 if you have questions about your specific situation.

Q: What happens if I miss the April 15, 2026, deadline? A: Late claims are not accepted. If you miss the April 15, 2026 deadline, you will receive no payment and will still be bound by the settlement’s release of claims — meaning you cannot sue Dapper Labs over these privacy allegations later.

Q: How do I opt out of this settlement? A: To exclude yourself, you must mail a signed letter stating you want to be excluded from Ohebshalom v. Dapper Labs, Inc., Index No. 615987/2025, including your name, address, and signature, postmarked no later than April 15, 2026, to the settlement administrator at P.O. Box 4380, Portland, OR 97208-4380.

Q: Who is overseeing this case? A: The Honorable Lisa A. Cairo, of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau, is overseeing this case. The case is called Ohebshalom v. Dapper Labs, Inc., Index No. 615987/2025.
