Circle K / Gas Express Data Breach Settlement

Canup v. Gas Express, LLC (State Court of Fulton County, GA, No. 25EV012357) covers a May 2024 breach at a Circle K franchise operator that exposed employee and customer data. Class members choose between reimbursement of documented breach-related expenses up to $2,000, which requires receipts rather than personal affidavits, or a flat $50 payment with no paperwork, capped at 700 claimants. Everyone also gets two years of CyEx Financial Shield monitoring with $1 million in fraud insurance. Claims, opt-outs, and objections are all due September 3, 2026, with the hearing on September 18, 2026.

People whose personal details, including names and Social Security numbers, may have been compromised in the May 2024 data incident at Gas Express, a Circle K operator, typically those who received breach notification letters.

Up to $2,000 for documented out-of-pocket losses (program capped at $45,000 total), or a no-proof $50 alternate payment limited to the first 700 valid claims, plus two years of credit monitoring for all class members.

No payment amount is ever guaranteed. Pro rata payouts shrink as more valid claims come in, and every payment waits on final court approval and any appeals.

Partial proof: the base payment does not require documents, but higher payment tiers (such as documented-loss reimbursement) do. You can usually file the simple tier with just the claim form, or attach records to claim more.
