Yes. You do not need a receipt to join the Zumba Fitness VPPA Settlement. Identified Class Members receive payment automatically without filing a claim form if the court grants final approval, according to the Simpluris-run official settlement website.
No proof of purchase is required for that automatic process. The Zumba Fitness VPPA Settlement is the $2.7 million resolution of claims that Zumba shared video-purchase data in violation of the federal Video Privacy Protection Act. That law protects the privacy of video purchases and viewing choices. The case concerns buyers of the ZB1 OD version from Zumba.com.

Who Counts as a Class Member?
The group covers people who bought the ZB1 OD version from Zumba.com between Oct. 22, 2022 and Oct. 22, 2024. Their first and last names must have appeared on order confirmation pages shared with third-party advertisers, as described in the Settlement Owl report. The case is Kueppers et al.
v. Zumba Fitness, LLC, No. 0:24-cv-61983-WPD in the Southern District of Florida. Membership is narrow. Only people identified through Zumba and third-party records who received email or postal notice are Class Members. A person cannot join by asserting a purchase if those records do not identify them.
Why Is No Claim Form Required?
Plaintiffs allege Zumba used tracking pixels that sent purchase identifying information to Meta, MNTN, and Pinterest. They allege the transfers violated the federal Video Privacy Protection Act. Zumba denies wrongdoing.
Because members were identified from existing order and advertiser records, the fund does not use a claims process. The official site states that people who do nothing and remain in the class receive payment automatically after final approval. The fund covers about 4,543 buyers, with eosguide reporting at least $229.33 per subclass share and up to about $687.99 for members in all three subclasses.
What Should You Do After Getting Notice?
Recipients should read the notice and confirm the court still grants final approval. They should verify that their mailing address is current. The default payment is a check sent to the address on file.
OpenClassActions reports that the Login ID and PIN allow address updates and electronic-payment choices. Acting now prevents a check from going to an old address. Keep the notice until payment arrives.
- Confirm the mailing address Zumba and the administrator have for you
- Use the Login ID and PIN from your notice on the official site
- Update your address if you moved
- Choose electronic payment if you prefer it over a check
When Will Payment Happen?
No one is paid before court approval. The opt-out and objection deadline is Dec. 14, 2026. The Final Approval Hearing is Jan. 21, 2027 at 1:00 p.m.
Eastern, according to the Simpluris-run Important Dates page. Members who stay in the class do not need to attend the hearing. Payments follow only if the court approves the settlement at or after that hearing. Check the official site after Jan. 21, 2027 for payment updates.
