The new website powered by Kelmar provides a national database to search for unclaimed property
(November 1, 2022, Washington, DC) – Since 2000, the National Association of State Treasurers and the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators have worked to realize their goal of a true national database for unclaimed property. Each unclaimed property department maintains their own website to search, but MissingMoney.com is the only website endorsed by States and Provinces working together to create a national database to help reunite owners with their missing funds.
There are no advertisements found on MissingMoney.com, and there is no fee to search for property. The website also brings improvements, such as a new algorithm for better searches, and more records to search through. Currently, there are 48 departments and 211 million records available to search online in the same location.
“We’re very excited to continue the success of MissingMoney.com and realize our goal of a true national database for unclaimed property.”
1 in 7 individuals have some form of unclaimed property waiting to be collected, whether it’s an inactive checking account, missed paycheck, utility refund, or some other forgotten funds. Though held by each state, owners have the right to reclaim their money in perpetuity. Individuals and businesses claim billions of dollars in unclaimed property each year. Americans are encouraged to take a few minutes to search for any money or other valuables that have gone missing, whether you realize it or not. .
