Backed by Techstars and USC
Built for every kind of entity, including ones that no longer exist.
States hold property under the exact name and address it was reported with. We connect those records back to the organization entitled to them today.
Where it comes from
Vendor & payroll checks
Payments to your business that were never deposited and eventually escheated to the state.
Bank accounts & deposits
Dormant operating accounts, security deposits, and utility deposits reported under entity names.
Refunds & credit balances
Overpayments, rebates, and credit balances owed by vendors, insurers, and government agencies.
Stocks & distributions
Securities, dividend checks, and partnership distributions that lost track of the owner entity.
Insurance proceeds
Unclaimed policy proceeds, premium refunds, and claim payments issued to business policyholders.
Court & escrow funds
Settlement funds, escrow balances, and court-held money tied to your entity or its predecessors.
Who we help
Active companies
Operating businesses with uncashed vendor checks, refunds, deposits, or dormant accounts sitting with a state.
Dissolved businesses
Entities that wound down years ago. States still hold their property, and former owners or officers can often claim it.
Acquired & merged
Property reported under a company you bought or merged with belongs to the successor, with the right paper trail.
Nonprofits
Donations, refunds, and account balances escheated under a nonprofit’s name or former addresses.
Subsidiaries & DBAs
Property scattered across subsidiary names, DBAs, and regional entities that never gets searched together.
Trusts
Funds held for trusts and trustees, including property reported under prior trustee names.
Six steps from discovery to payment.
Business claims carry more documentation and more state scrutiny than personal claims. We manage every step of the process.
- 01
Entity discovery
We search state records for property tied to your entity names, former names, DBAs, and subsidiaries across jurisdictions.
- 02
Initial review
A recovery expert walks through what was found, which states are holding it, and what each claim will require.
- 03
Authority & docs
We confirm who can act for the organization and assemble the entity history and proof of authority the state expects.
- 04
Claim preparation
Each claim is prepared to the holding state’s specific requirements and submitted with the full supporting record set.
- 05
State follow-up
States often ask for more. We respond to examiner requests and supply supplemental records until the claim clears review.
- 06
Approval & payment
Once the state approves, funds are released to your organization. Monitoring keeps watching for new records.
What it takes to claim.
States look closely at corporate history before releasing funds. Straightforward active-entity claims often resolve in a few months, while dissolved or acquired entities take longer due to required succession documentation.
Authority to act
States verify that the person filing can act for the entity. What that takes depends on status:
- Active entities: an officer, member, or authorized representative files, with corporate records proving the role.
- Dissolved entities: states want documentation of who is entitled to the property after wind-down, such as final owners or their successors.
- Acquired & merged: the transaction records that connect the reporting name to today’s claiming entity.
Burden of proof
Requirements vary by state, claim, and entity status. We identify what each claim needs and do the assembly work:
- Entity-history reconstruction: formation records, name changes, mergers, and dissolution filings that connect the reported name to your organization.
- Ownership documentation: operating agreements, stock records, and succession documents that establish who is entitled to the funds.
- Address & identity evidence: records tying the reported address or account to your entity’s operating history.
Simple, transparent pricing.
You pay only on successful recovery, and monitoring is free.
CollectRefund Recovery
There is no upfront cost to search or begin the process. If CollectRefund successfully recovers funds, a service fee applies based on the claim and applicable state requirements. The exact fee is disclosed before recovery is authorized.
Free Monitoring
Monitoring is free during launch. Customers who enroll during launch keep their current monitoring account, nationwide coverage, future matches, and current feature set free permanently.
Businesses never stop generating new matches.
Every vendor relationship, bank account, insurance policy, and old address is a future state record waiting to happen. CollectRefund keeps watching your entity names and addresses, past and present.
Ongoing escheatment
Vendors, insurers, banks, and customers keep escheating funds under your entity names year after year.
Dormancy delays
Dormancy periods mean money owed to your business today may not reach a state for several more years.
Broken links
Name changes, mergers, and relocations break the link between new state records and your current entity.
Point-in-time limits
A one-time search only covers the names and addresses you thought to check on that day.

| Harborline Logistics LLC | Active | 4 | 3 | 2 new |
| Harborline Freight Co. | Former name | 2 | 1 | Reviewed |

Nationwide monitoring.
CollectRefund Monitoring covers all 50 states and the District of Columbia and runs nightly against available state records.
Managed recovery available in 7 states
Everywhere else, CollectRefund provides search results, official state filing guidance, or referral support so nothing found goes unclaimed. Multi-state organizations get one search across every jurisdiction and one team coordinating the claims.
You control who sees what.
Your organization designates its authorized contacts. Only those people can view monitoring results, and only those with signing authority can approve a recovery.
CollectRefund encrypts personal information in transit and at rest. Personal information is retained only as long as necessary to provide services, maintain required records, and meet legal obligations. Users may request deletion by emailing info@collectrefunds.com.

Business questions, answered
Common questions about business recovery and monitoring.
Can CollectRefund recover property owed to my business?
Yes. States hold unclaimed property reported under business names, vendor checks, refunds, deposits, insurance proceeds, and more. CollectRefund searches records tied to your entity names, past addresses, and predecessor entities, then guides eligible claims through the state process.
What does business recovery cost?
There is no upfront cost to search or begin the process. If CollectRefund successfully recovers funds, a service fee applies based on the claim and applicable state requirements. The exact fee is disclosed before recovery is authorized.
Our company was dissolved years ago. Can we still claim its property?
Often, yes. States hold property for dissolved entities, and claims can typically be made by former owners, officers, or successors with the right documentation. Requirements vary by state, claim, and entity status: CollectRefund identifies what is required and helps assemble the proof.
Who is allowed to claim on behalf of a business?
States require proof that the person filing has authority to act for the entity, for example an officer, member, authorized representative, or successor in interest. CollectRefund confirms who can sign for your organization and what authority documentation the state expects before anything is filed.
We operate in many states. Do we have to search each one separately?
No. CollectRefund searches across jurisdictions for records tied to your entity names, former names, subsidiaries, and address history. Managed end-to-end recovery currently operates in seven states, and CollectRefund provides search results, official filing guidance, or referral support elsewhere.
What does business monitoring cost?
Monitoring is free during launch. Customers who enroll during launch keep their current monitoring account, nationwide coverage, future matches, and current feature set free permanently.
