The State of Kansas is holding over $400 million in unclaimed funds!
Every year thousands of people lose track of their bank accounts, cash, stocks, bonds, refunds, royalties, safe deposit boxes and other property.
People move and forget to give their bank, broker, employer or insurance company a forwarding address.
It is the Kansas Treasurer’s job to locate the rightful owners and heirs to these funds.
Unclaimed money can include:
- Court deposits
- Dormant checking accounts
- Dormant savings accounts
- Insurance benefits
- Oil and gas royalties
- Safe deposit box contents
- Stock and cash dividends
- Utility deposits
- Wages
It costs nothing to do a search and file a claim for your money.
Most courthouses contain a list of unclaimed money.

Did you know you can make money finding unclaimed money for other people?
There is a little known business that lets you do that. Unclaimed money finders locate people that don’t know they have money being held for them and help them to recover it.
In return, they charge a commission after the money is recovered.

Received a text from some company saying I had 340.00 dollars in unclaimed money but wanted check here before I opened any site they were saying figured it some sort of scam
Wade, as long as they get the money first and then you pay them a percentage, that is fine, but don’t pay any money up front.
Use the unclaimed property site that is a part of .gov. It’s free
I have found my unclaimed money but they want me to provide addresses that dont exist. A couple are vacant lots and some are commercial property. Question; If a submission has no address and is from another state, howdoes it end up in Kansas?
What are they doing up there? They have been holding my property with these fake addresses long enough. The site says my identification is not correct but I’ve had the same id # for 28 years. Its about time you guys came off of my property i inherited.
Where do you go to find unclaimed MONEY, IT KEEPS TAKING ME TO unclaimed properties.
State of Kansas no longer allows unclaimed money finders. After making a formal request, I got this from the Deputy State Treasurer:
Under the Kansas Open Records Act (K.S.A. 45-215 et. seq.); we are declining to release these records to you in accordance with K.S.A. 45-230. This statute provides civil penalties for anyone providing information to someone who we know will use the information for commercial purposes. K.S.A. 45-230 is a privacy statute that applies to all public records, not just our database. Using information for a commercial purpose is defined as soliciting individuals listed to provide your services. In addition, K.S.A. 45-221(a) (30) allows this office to refuse to produce records containing “information of a personal nature where the public disclosure thereof would constitute an invasion of personal privacy.” This office maintains its database on a website that is accessible to the public while protecting personal information such as the dollar value of the property held and Social Security numbers. This website balances the individual right to privacy against providing the accessibility necessary to help owners locate their unclaimed property. It makes the database accessible on an individual inquiry basis in order to limit commercial use of the database.
James,
Yes, that is correct. Did you go to https://moneyfinderbiz.com/kansas/ before making your request? It could have saved you a lot of time! The first sentence on the page says “It does not pay to search for Kansas unclaimed money as a finder”. Now, just because you may live in Kansas (not sure) and you want to be an unclaimed money finder, it doesn’t mean that you can’t, it just means that you can’t search in Kansas. You can look in plenty of other states though!

Are you referring to the newsletter? You should have received an email asking you to confirm subscribing.
It will not let me see if i have any unclaimed money.
Lacey,
I am not sure what you are referring to. The above link goes to
http://www.kansascash.com/prodweb/up/ownr_1.php?uda=1
I was able to click on it and enter names and see them. Is that what you were referring to?
How many times do I have to put it in.
Everytime I put it in it just keeps asking for it again.
i guess I was putting it in wrong,not the brightest candle on the cake.
