January 6, 2026 – Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers has announced a multistate settlement with Menard Inc., doing business as Menards, the home improvement retail chain. The settlement resolves claims made in 2020 that the company incorrectly marketed its 11% rebate program.

In a settlement with the states, Menards has agreed to clearly communicate the limitations of the rebate program to its customers and disclose all applicable terms and conditions in a readily available manner. Menards also will communicate to customers that the company is doing business as Rebates International.

Menards also agreed to the following:

  • Allow consumers at least one year from the date of purchase to submit a rebate claim.
  • Update its online rebate tracker with information about the rebate claim within 48 hours of the application being input into Menards’ system.
  • Update its online rebate tracker with additional information about the rebate, including updates about returns affecting the rebate.

As part of the settlement, the company will pay Nebraska $231,975.22.

Joining Nebraska in this settlement, which was co-led by Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa, are the attorneys general of Arizona, Kansas, Michigan, Ohio and South Dakota.
