Search
Enter your name. We scan the unclaimed-money records we host from states, counties, and federal sources.
Verify
We confirm the money is really yours and gather the documentation the agency requires.
Get paid
We file the claim on your behalf. You get your money; we take a small, capped fee — only if you're paid.
We search more sources than anyone
