FTC sends payments to eligible people who worked for Arise
What the FTC says about this program
The FTC is sending 98,254 checks totaling more than $6.7 million to eligible people who worked for gig work company Arise sometime between January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2023.
The FTC brought charges against Arise and the company settled. According to the FTC, Arise advertised itself as a lucrative gig work opportunity where people could earn “up to $18 per hour” working customer service jobs for major companies. The FTC says that wasn’t true. Instead, most Arise agents spent time and money on things like mandatory equipment and training, then made less than the promised hourly rate.
If you got a check, please cash it within 90 days.
