About
Compass Group USA Inc., doing business as Canteen, has agreed to a $6.94 million class action settlement after a lawsuit alleged the company charged consumers more than the displayed price when paying with a card — without properly disclosing the extra fee.
Canteen, the largest vending machine operator in the U.S., runs over 230,000 machines nationwide. The lawsuit claims the company breached consumer trust and violated contract terms by not informing customers about card-related upcharges.
Canteen denies any wrongdoing but agreed to settle to avoid prolonged litigation.
