What our report adds to the free routes

Start with the free routes

Where a country runs an official free search or overview for your pensions, our country page shows it first. Our government pension portals directory lists the official pension records and portals country by country, and our free pension check shows which countries in your work history may hold a pension. If a free route answers your question, use it.

Workplace and state pensions, in one place

The Country Pension Identification Report gives you, for each country you tick:

  • Workplace and state pension position in one country
  • Every finding fully sourced, with a date
  • Report in your inbox in 24 to 48 hours
  • Every contact route included, ready to use

Renamed and acquired employers

Employers merge, change hands and change their names. The Enhanced Pension Identification Report adds manual research on cold trails: acquired employers, retired administrators, renamed schemes.

Deadlines flagged

The Enhanced Pension Identification Report gives your workplace and state pension position, with deadlines and rule changes flagged, and a prepared request for every fund identified, ready to send.

One clear report

The Global Pension Identification Report covers cross-border rules and treaty routes across every country you worked in, in one consolidated document: every country, every request.

With you until the end

On the Enhanced Pension Identification Report and the Global Pension Identification Report, our team of experts helps you until the end, through every reply, for as long as your case is open. You send each request to the pension body yourself; we never contact a fund for you.

The Country Pension Identification Report is identification only, without that help.

Try the alternative first

AI can tell you what a pension is. It cannot tell you that you have one. It is genuinely good at explaining how a rule works, and if that is all you needed, you have saved yourself a fee.

Then ask it which scheme holds your money and who administers it today, and ask it for the source and the date it checked. Why that is where it ends
