Panera data breach settlement
Panera settled a data breach claim for $2.5 million, with up to $6,500 per person. The claim window closed on November 11, 2025, so this one can no longer be claimed — but new settlements open all the time, and some are paying out right now. The free check tells you in seconds whether your email is in a breach that still pays.

Who was covered
Individuals who received a data breach notification from Panera informing them that their personal information may have been compromised in a March 2024 data breach.
Where to claim
The administrator’s site is PaneraSettlement.com. The window is closed, so it is there for the record, not to file.

Being in the breach is not the same as being in the class. Class membership usually turns on having received the company’s own notice letter, and only the settlement administrator can confirm it. We are not lawyers, we take no fee from any claim, and we never file on anyone’s behalf.
