What is No Proof Required?

Class action glossary term

Short Definition

A settlement rule that lets eligible claimants submit a claim without uploading receipts or other purchase documents (often with lower caps).

What It Means

Many consumer settlements allow claims without proof to make participation easier, but they may limit how much you can claim or require a sworn statement. Some settlements offer higher payouts if you provide proof, and a lower “no proof” option if you don’t.

Example

Example: “Up to 2 items without proof; unlimited items with receipts.”

Why It Matters

You can still get paid without receipts—but read the caps so you know what you’re signing up for.
