Circle K data breach settlement pays $50 flat with no proof or up to $2,000 with receipts, by September 3, 2026
Last checked July 17, 2026
Gas Express LLC, the company behind Circle K stores hit by a May 2024 cyberattack, agreed to pay a flat $50 to anyone who received a breach notice and files, no documents needed. People with receipts for losses tied to the breach can claim up to $2,000 instead. Everyone who files also gets two years of CyEx Financial Shield Complete monitoring with up to $1 million in identity theft insurance.
The claim deadline is September 3, 2026. The case is Canup v. Gas Express LLC, and Gas Express denies wrongdoing. The facts available do not list a total fund size.
Filing is free on the official site. Payout is a discovery app, not a law firm, and cannot guarantee a payment.
How the payout amount is decided
You choose one of two tiers. The $50 tier needs only your self-certification that you got the notice. The documented tier reimburses out-of-pocket losses incurred between May 20, 2024 and September 3, 2026 that you can tie to the breach, up to $2,000: identity theft expenses, monitoring you paid for, bank charges.
No fund total is published, so it is unknown whether the $50 could be reduced if claims exceed the money available. The administrator decides that after the deadline.
Who qualifies
- You are a U.S. resident.
- Gas Express (Circle K) sent you a breach notification about the May 2024 incident.
When money arrives
Payments follow final court approval, which comes after the September 3, 2026 deadline. The facts available do not give a hearing date. Similar breach settlements have paid several months to a year after claims closed. Keep your confirmation number.
