WASHINGTON — Consumers who bought Poppi sodas have just days left to apply for their share of a $8.9 million class action settlement. 

A lawsuit alleged that Poppi improperly marketed its products with “gut healthy” representations. According to the lawsuit, a person would need to drink four or more cans of Poppi in order “receive any health benefits from its prebiotic fiber,” but doing so would immediately offset the benefits due to the soda’s sugar content. Plaintiffs claimed consumers purchased products they wouldn’t have otherwise bought or paid premium prices based on these health claims.

Poppi agreed to the settlement but denies any wrongdoing and maintains its product labeling is truthful and accurate. Here’s what to know.

Consumers have until Thursday, Sept. 26, 2025 to submit claims for the settlement.

A final approval hearing is scheduled for Nov. 20, 2025 in federal court. If approved, payments will be distributed within 90 days after the settlement becomes final.

The settlement covers purchases made through July 18, 2025, and includes all persons in the United States who bought Poppi products for household use between January 2020 and July 2025.

All flavors and package sizes of Poppi products are eligible.

The settlement allows eligible consumers to receive up to 75 cents per single can, $3 per 4-pack, $6 per 8-pack, and $9 per 12-pack or 15-pack purchased.

Those with receipts or proof of purchase can claim the full amounts listed above. Consumers without receipts can still file claims but are limited to a maximum of $16 per household.

Actual payout amounts may be reduced proportionally depending on the total number of approved claims and administrative costs.
