The July 2026 payment is a reissue for selected customers, not a newly opened free-trial claim. It follows earlier check and PayPal distributions tied to four named product lines.
What Was Announced?
The Federal Trade Commission says eligible customers of AH Media Group are receiving Zelle refunds in July 2026. The recipients were charged for purported free trials of cosmetics or weight-loss supplements and did not complete an earlier FTC payment.The program covers products marketed under names including Amabella Allure, Adelina, Parisian Glow and Tone Fire Garcinia. Earlier check and PayPal rounds resulted in more than $5.2 million in completed payments, according to the FTC.
What Did the FTC Say Happened?
The FTC alleged that AH Media promoted products as low-cost free trials, often asking for a shipping charge of $4.99 or less. Roughly two weeks later, according to the agency, customers could be charged around $90 for the trial product.The agency also alleged that buyers were enrolled in continuing subscription plans that produced additional monthly charges. The case was resolved through court orders, and the refund fund is being distributed to affected customers.
Who Is Receiving the New Zelle Payment?
The July round is directed to eligible people who did not cash an earlier FTC check or accept an earlier PayPal payment. It is not a general payment to everyone who ever bought one of the named products.The FTC says the Zelle payment will appear as a direct bank deposit with a settlement note. A legitimate recipient does not need to buy anything, pay a processing charge, or return part of the deposit.
What If You Still See Subscription Charges?
The refund does not automatically cancel an unrelated current subscription or resolve a new card dispute. Review recent statements and keep order confirmations, cancellation records and screenshots.OCA’s guide to charges that continue after cancellation explains how to document a dispute. A separate OCA page covers the Free Trial recurring-billing settlement; that matter is distinct from AH Media’s FTC program.
Avoid Look-Alike Refund Messages
The FTC does not charge a fee for this Zelle payment. Do not disclose a password, one-time authentication code, or full card number to someone who claims those details are needed to release it.Verify the program at the official FTC link below. That is safer than using a link in an unexpected text or searching for a third-party recovery service.
