FTX is set to distribute about $2.2 billion to creditors at the end of March 2026. The payout will be carried out by the FTX Recovery Trust as part of its ongoing bankruptcy process. The money will be sent to creditors starting from March 31, 2026, depending on whether they have completed all the steps required of them.
This payout is the fourth round of payments done by the company since it started returning users’ finds under the Chapter 11 restructuring plan. Creditors who qualify are expected to receive their money within one to three business days through their selected distribution partners.

The payments will be handled through service providers like BitGo, Kraken, and Payoneer. Once users choose one of these platforms, they give up the option of receiving direct cash payments and are instead expected to receive funds through the selected provider.
Additionally, the recent report shares that the creditors will receive different payout percentages based on their claim category. Some customers’ claims that are tied to the international platform will reach up to 96% in total recovery, while U.S. customers’ claims are expected to reach full repayment.

Smaller claims categorized under convenience classes will receive more than their original amounts, with total payouts reaching up to 120%.
Requirements and Next Steps for FTX Payment
To receive future payments, creditors must complete all the steps through the official claim portal. These steps include identity verification, submitting tax forms, and also registering with one of the approved distribution providers.
In addition, FTX Trust has set April 30, 2026, as the record date for preferred equity holders. These investors are expected to receive their first payments on May 29, 2026, if they meet all requirements.
