Unclaimed money recovery

Money may be waiting in your name. We handle the claim.

Old paychecks, deposits and refunds end up held by states as unclaimed property. We check for it, prepare the paperwork and file the claim for you, in your language. 10% only if we recover it.

We file, you get paid
We prepare and submit the claim. The state pays you directly. We charge our fee only after you are paid.

Two ways to claim. Pick what fits you.

Unclaimed property is yours either way. States let you claim it directly at no cost; we offer to do the work for a fee.

Key terms of the agreement, in plain language

Fee: 10% of the amount actually recovered, or less where your state caps it. Nothing recovered, nothing owed.
You can claim this money yourself from your state at no cost.
You can cancel in writing within the period your state requires, at no charge.
The state pays you directly. We invoice the fee afterwards.
Some states require your signature to be notarized. If yours does, we tell you before you sign. You complete that step and pay the notary directly; our fee still applies only to what is recovered.

I agree to be contacted about my request. I understand I can claim for free myself and can reply STOP at any time. Optional: text me updates about my claim. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out. You can still use our service without texts.

Straight answers

Is this real money?

Yes. When a company cannot reach an owner for years, it must turn the money over to the state, which holds it until the owner claims it.

Do I need to share my immigration status?

No. Unclaimed property belongs to you regardless of status, and we never ask about it.

Why would I pay you if it is free?

Some people want help with forms, proof of identity, or language. If you would rather do it yourself, use the free links on this page. We will not mind.

What is your fee?

10% of the amount recovered, lower where the state caps it. You pay only after you are paid.

Can I cancel?

Yes, in writing, within the period your state requires, at no charge.
