(Reuters) -Capital One settled a lawsuit by social media creators who said a free browser extension used by millions of people to find discounts stole their sales commissions when shoppers bought their products and services.

The sixth-largest U.S. commercial bank and the creators jointly filed a settlement notice on Thursday in the Alexandria, Virginia federal court, and expect a settlement to be submitted for preliminary approval by November 17.
