Casino Game Payment Settlement
DoubleDown Interactive has settled to resolve claims that its games violated Washington’s gambling laws by allegedly using illegal schemes. Moreover, DoubleDown would first give some free chips and then would force its players to purchase additional chips to keep playing, according to the complaint. Now, eligible participants of the game are qualified to recover the illegal profits.
“Defendants’ online casino games have succeeded, and thousands of consumers have spent millions of dollars unwittingly playing Defendants’ prohibited games of chance,” the details of the payment settlement read. DoubleDown has not admitted to any wrongdoing but has decided to the settlement and change some ways the game is played like allowing people to play without purchasing in-game currency.
Here’s How To Qualify For The Payment Settlement
Those individuals who played DoubleDown Casino, DoubleDown Fort Knox, DoubleDown Classic, or Ellen’s Road to Riches before November 14, 2022, are eligible for a payment. Possible class members must submit a valid claim form either online or by mail, according to Double Down. “This is the only way to obtain payment,” the company urged. To identify how much you qualify will be available soon on the settlement website.
Cash payments or electronic will vary on the amount class players spend on in-game purchases for the DoubleDown. This will be based on the number of claims that are filed and the net settlement account after deductions. People who spent more on in-app purchases will obtain larger payments. The cash will be sent to the address or to the payment details listed on your claim.
Lastly, in claiming deadline was originally set for February 14 but it has been moved to April 11. The final approval hearing for the payment settlement is scheduled for June 1.
