As a gamer with a decade-long history of vaping, I can’t help but feel a mix of emotions seeing the massive payouts from the Juul class action lawsuit. On one hand, it’s heartening to see justice being served for those who have been affected by the addictiveness and safety issues surrounding this product.
The distribution of funds from Juul’s $300 million settlement is now underway, leaving many social media users in a state of astonishment over the large payouts.
In 2023, a class action lawsuit was filed claiming that customers were overpaying for Juul products because they weren’t aware of the extent to which the product is addictive.
The Lawsuit claims that the Plaintiffs overpaid for JUUL items because crucial information about their addictive nature and safety wasn’t disclosed, and that these products were illegally targeted at underage consumers.
Users can file claims in this lawsuit for any purchases made prior to December 7, 2022, to receive a portion of the substantial compensation. The amount is typically small per individual, but users of Juul products have sparked surprise on social media platforms with the significant payouts they’ve received.
Should you explore the r/Juul community on Reddit, you’ll discover that one user pocketed around $9,200 from the settlement, another earned approximately $7,680, yet another got $1,300, and other members received a few hundred dollars.

On TikTok too, people have shared their responses after receiving a substantial reward, with many videos garnering widespread attention concerning this topic.
From the perspective of the user: You’ve just received a $3k transfer from a class action lawsuit against JUUL, a claim you made as a joke two years ago in college. This video of yours has now been viewed over 600k times.
One user remarked, ‘I initially believed the scene was staged, but now I’m genuinely saddened because it turned out to be genuine.’
Another said: “Ugh, I wish I filled this out.”
“I’m so upset I didn’t do this,” replied a third.
Class action lawsuits don’t usually result in payouts as substantial as the one in the Juul case, but they do occur frequently throughout the U.S. on a smaller scale.
A man filed one against TikTok, Reddit, YouTube, and Meta back in August with claims that the apps are too “addictive.” They’re not the only major companies that have faced a class action lawsuit, either. Roblox responded to one back in November 2023 after facing claims that it was “grooming” children.
