Schnucks Settles $6.3 Million Suit Over Loyalty Rewards Sales Tax Overcharges

  • Schnucks Markets agreed to a $6.3 million class-action settlement over allegations it miscalculated Missouri sales tax on purchases made with loyalty rewards points.
  • The lawsuit claimed Schnucks taxed items at the full pre-discount price instead of treating redeemed points as a pre-tax discount, causing alleged double taxation.
  • Eligible loyalty members who used points on taxable items from May 2, 2020, to August 7, 2026, can receive a $7 payment.
  • Schnucks will also update its point-of-sale system by March 31, 2027, so sales tax is calculated after rewards discounts are applied.
