Amazon will pay $1.5 billion in refunds to customers as part of a $2.5 billion settlement with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The settlement addresses allegations that Amazon used deceptive practices to enroll users in Prime subscriptions and hindered their ability to cancel. Tens of millions of customers may be affected. Payout amounts will vary based on subscription history and the number of eligible claims. The FTC is expected to detail the claims process soon, with payments anticipated to begin this month.
