Nobody is going to call you
about
your unclaimed money.
When a bank, employer or insurer loses track of you, your money doesn't vanish — the law hands it to the state, where it sits under your name until you ask for it. Most people never ask. Take 90 seconds and ask.
You don't lose money like this on purpose.
You lose it by moving on.
Unclaimed property is almost never a fortune someone forgot. It's ordinary life, leaving a trail. How many of these have happened to you?
-
You moved house
A refund, deposit or final statement went to the old address and came back undeliverable.
-
You switched banks
The last few dollars, a CD that matured, or an account you were sure you had emptied.
-
You left a job
A final paycheck, an expense reimbursement, or a small pension nobody reminded you about.
-
You changed your name
Records filed under a maiden or previous name stop matching the person you are now.
-
You overpaid someone
Utilities, hospitals, landlords and insurers all issue refunds that never arrive.
-
A relative passed away
Policies, accounts and deposits the family never knew existed — heirs can claim these.
Every one of those ends the same way: a line on a government list, filed under your name, waiting for someone to look it up.
None of that money is advertised to the people it belongs to. There is no letter coming. The entire system waits for you to type your name.
What happens when you search
No forms to fill in. No documents to dig out. No phone call from anyone.
You type a name
First name, last name, and a state if you know it. That is the entire form — we do not ask for an SSN, a card, or a bank account, and we never will.
We search what can be searched
We check the official datasets we have ingested for real matches, then build you a Guided External Search — direct, pre-filled links to every official source that doesn't allow bulk access. No guessing, no dead ends.
You get the truth, either way
Every match we can verify, an AI Wealth Score showing how much of the country we actually covered, and step-by-step instructions to claim it yourself, free, on the state's own website.
Honest about the limits: most states don't publish downloadable data, so for those we send you straight to the official portal instead of pretending we searched it. Your Wealth Score tells you exactly how much ground we covered — and how to cover more.
"So what's the catch?"
Fair question — this is exactly the kind of offer that deserves suspicion. Here's the whole business model, in plain words:
Searching costs us very little, so we give it away. Some people who find something want more than a link — a deeper scan, monitoring that watches for new money, or help assembling a claim — and a few of them pay us a flat fee for it. Some take an optional offer from a lender partner. Most people take their free result and go claim it themselves, and that is a perfectly good outcome for us.

The best search you run
probably isn't your own.
Your parents changed banks more times than you have. Your grandmother's maiden name is on records nobody has touched in forty years. The person most likely to have money sitting on a state list is the one who'd never think to check — and would never find out unless somebody told them.
Be the person who tells them.
A free account lets you run searches for family and send each result as its own link. Public name-and-state records only — no personal details stored, nothing shared without you.
Create an account and
keep every result.
The search itself is free without an account. Registering is what makes it stick — the full match list stays open, your searches are saved, and we keep watching after you've closed the tab.
- ✓ See every verified match and amount, not just the count

🔒 Email and password. That's it. No card, no SSN, no bank details — delete your account any time.
Start with the search
Takes about 90 seconds. You'll be asked to register only when there's something to keep.
Before you type your name
The questions people actually ask us.
▸ Is this a scam?
The honest test for any service like this: does it ask for money, a percentage, or your bank details before showing you anything? We ask for none of those. Unclaimed property is a real government program in every US state, your money is genuinely free to claim directly at your state's official site, and we show you exactly where to do that — including when the answer is "nothing found."
▸ Do I have to pay to see my results?
No. The match list, the amounts and the claim instructions are free with a free account. Paid tiers exist for people who want a deeper scan, ongoing monitoring or hands-on claim help — they buy tools and assistance, never access to your own money.
▸ Will you ask for my Social Security number?
Never for a search. The only place an SSN appears in this process is on the official claim form you file with the state — on the state's website, not ours.
▸ What if you don't find anything?
Then you've spent 90 seconds and you know. We show you honestly how much of the country we were able to search, which official sources to check yourself, and we can watch for your name in future updates. A clean "nothing found" is a real answer, and we won't dress it up as anything else.
▸ Can I search for someone else?
Yes — for family and friends using public name-and-state records, and for a deceased relative in estate mode, which surfaces heir-specific sources like the NAIC life-insurance locator. We don't store personal details about people who haven't searched themselves.
▸ Is my information safe?
We store what you type to run and save your search — nothing more. No SSN, no financial account data, no contact harvesting. You can delete your account and its history whenever you want.
It costs you ninety seconds
to stop wondering.
If there's nothing there, you'll know — and it cost you nothing. If there is something there, it has been sitting under your name this whole time, and it will keep sitting there until somebody types it in.
Unclaimed property is always free to search and claim directly at your state's official site (see unclaimed.org). FoundWealth is an independent search, report and monitoring tool — not a government agency, and we never take a percentage of your money. You are paying only for our tools and assistance.
