What happened
A customer alleged Six Flags added undisclosed processing fees to online ticket purchases for Knott's Berry Farm, Knott's Soak City and California's Great America. Six Flags denies liability and agreed to give each class member $8.
The case is Isayan v. Cedar Fair L.P. in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles.
A court-appointed administrator runs the claim process and sends the payments. SettleClub is not affiliated with the administrator or with Knott's Berry Farm.
Who qualifies
Californians who bought non-season tickets through knotts.com or cagreatamerica.com between June 28, 2020 and July 1, 2024 and were charged a processing fee.
The class period is Jun 28, 2020 to Jul 1, 2024. If your purchase, account or visit falls outside those dates, you are not part of this settlement even if everything else fits.
How much you could get
The notice lists $8 cash or credit per person.
The settlement fund is split among everyone who files a valid claim, after attorneys' fees, administration costs and any service awards approved by the court, so the final amount depends on how many people file.
Do you need proof? No.
No proof. If you do nothing you automatically get an $8 credit for sixflags.com. If you want $8 in cash instead, file the short claim form.
You sign the claim form under penalty of perjury, so only file if you genuinely fit the class definition above. That is the whole requirement.
How to file
Submit the claim form by December 22, 2026 to receive cash by electronic payment or check. The opt-out and objection deadline is the same day.
The deadline is Dec 22, 2026. Filing takes a few minutes online. Keep the confirmation number the administrator gives you; it is the only proof you filed.
When the money arrives
Payments go out after the court grants final approval and any appeals are resolved, which typically takes a few months after the claim deadline.
Track this claim in SettleClub and you will get a reminder before the deadline and a nudge when payments start going out.

Questions
Is the Knott's Berry Farm settlement legit?+
Yes. It is a court-approved settlement in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles. You file on the administrator's official site, never through a third party, and nobody legitimate will ask you to pay to claim.
Do I need a lawyer?+
No. Class counsel already represents the class, and their fees come out of the fund. You just file the claim form.
Do I need a receipt?+
No. This settlement accepts claims on your sworn statement alone.
What if I miss the deadline?+
Late claims are rejected. The administrator has no discretion to accept them, which is why a reminder matters more than it sounds.
