Frequently Asked Questions
How much money can I get from the NBA Top Shot Video Privacy Settlement?
The exact amount depends on how many valid claims are filed. Class Counsel estimates each approved claimant will receive roughly $36-$122.
Do I need proof of purchases or NFT transactions?
No. You simply need to confirm that you had both an NBA Top Shot and Facebook account during the class period. The settlement administrator may verify this information.
When will payments be sent?
Within about 90 days after the Court grants final approval and any appeals end. Payments will be distributed electronically or by check as you specify on the Claim Form.

You will receive no money and will give up the right to sue the defendants over the VPPA claims covered by the settlement.
How do I exclude myself or object?
Send a signed letter post-marked by November 17 2025 to the address listed in the Notice. Objectors must also file their objection with the Court by the same date.
