Case overview
What is the Robinhood Financial LLC (also Robinhood Securities and Robinhood Markets, Inc.) settlement about?
A proposed class action claims Robinhood misrepresented the payment for order flow it received and routed certain customer equity orders in a way that gave them worse 'price improvement,' allegedly causing some trades made between September 1, 2016 and September 1, 2018 to execute at prices worse than the National Best Bid or Offer, with more than $5 in aggregate harm alleged per affected customer. Robinhood denies any wrongdoing, but the parties have reached a proposed $2,000,000 settlement that has received preliminary court approval. A final fairness hearing is scheduled for May 5, 2026. Class members who still have active Robinhood accounts in good standing don't need to do anything, they'll be paid automatically. Those without an active account, or who want their payment sent via ACH to a different bank, must file a claim form using the unique class member ID included in their mailed or emailed settlement notice; that ID is the only proof required, and no trade statements or other supporting documents are needed.
