How it works

From forgotten to found — in four steps.

California is holding billions in money that belongs to real people who simply lost track of it. Here’s exactly how we reunite you with yours — transparently, and only getting paid if you do.

The process

Four steps, and you only lift a finger for one of them

You search and confirm it’s you. We handle the rest — the research, the verification, the forms, and the back-and-forth with the State.

STEP 01

You search — free

Enter your name and we scan the official California State Controller records for property that matches you. No Social Security number, about a minute.

We do this
STEP 02

We confirm it’s really yours

We match the property to the owner of record and run independent identity checks before anything moves — so the right money reaches the right person.

We do this
STEP 03

We prepare everything; you sign once

After you e-sign our agreement online, we mail you a ready-to-sign packet: every state form pre-filled, a checklist of exactly what to enclose, and a prepaid tracked envelope label. About five minutes of your time — and your SSN is hand-written on the state’s paper form only; we never collect it online.

We do this
STEP 04

You get paid — then we do

We track your packet to the State’s door and email you at every milestone while the State reviews. Your share comes as a State-issued check directly to you; our fee is paid separately by the State — never out of your check, never out of your pocket. If nothing is recovered, you owe nothing.

We do this
Why you can trust it

Built so the right person gets the right money

10% — the legal max

California law (CCP §1582) caps recovery fees at 10%. We never charge more.

Only if recovered

No upfront cost, no search fee. You pay nothing unless the money reaches you.

State-verified

The State Controller independently verifies every claim before releasing funds.

Secure by design

Documents are uploaded through an encrypted portal — never over email.

What you’ll need

The proof the State requires

We tell you exactly what’s needed for your specific claim and collect it securely. Most claims need just two things.

Standard claim

  • Government-issued photo ID
  • Proof of your connection to the address or account

Estate claim (owner has passed)

  • Certified death certificate
  • Proof of relationship to the decedent
  • The right legal instrument (affidavit or court letters)
