Settlement Summary
Between March 5, 2019, and July 19, 2019, a class of Trader Joe’s shoppers alleged that the company violated the federal Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA). FACTA generally limits what merchants can print on receipts—specifically, it prohibits printing more than the last five digits of a credit or debit card number, with certain formatting requirements. The lawsuit claimed that Trader Joe’s receipts instead displayed additional digits (the first six and the last four), potentially increasing the risk that card information could be misused if receipts were exposed. The case—Keim v. Trader Joe’s Company (Los Angeles County Superior Court, No. 19STCV36790)—was filed as a “FACTA receipt truncation” class action and is significant because it focuses on a statutory violation even without requiring proof of identity theft. The proposed settlement totals $7.4 million (non-reversionary), with an estimated payout of about $56 to $113 per eligible class member (roughly $102 on average) for a class of 757,663 unique card numbers; attorneys’ fees and a service award are also included in the settlement structure. More broadly, this kind of digit-display litigation fits a long-running pattern of FACTA cases across retail and hospitality, and it reflects how merchants’ receipt-printing practices can trigger liability under consumer credit-protection rules—ultimately underscoring the need for retailers to ensure compliant receipt formatting and data-handling controls.
