The Facebook privacy settlement amount is $725 million. From this total, about $541 million is allocated for payments to eligible Facebook users who filed claims. The average payment per user is approximately $29.43, with the maximum payout capped at $38.36. The payment an individual receives depends on how long they actively used Facebook between May 24, 2007, and December 22, 2022. Each month of active use earned an "allocation point," and those with longer use receive higher payouts, up to the maximum limit. Users who submitted claims in 2023 and were eligible will receive their payments via check, PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle, distributed over about ten weeks starting September 2025.
