GPFR, the Global Pension Finding Register
People who worked abroad on one side. The pension funds that still hold their money on the other. We will match them.
No pension fund is matching yet; matching starts when the first fund signs.
Add yourself once. As pension funds join, they look here for former members they cannot reach. Free, always.
Free pension register for people who worked abroad
GPFR is a free pension register for people who worked abroad: you add yourself once. As pension funds join, they check GPFR for former members they cannot reach. Nothing is shared without your yes, and funds pay us per confirmed match, never you.
Our ambition: one global register where people and the pension funds holding their pensions find each other.
- Free for people.
- Data protected under UK GDPR.
- Funds pay per confirmed match.
- Matching starts as funds join.
How matching works
1. Both sides register
People add themselves free. Funds check the members they cannot reach, as codes, without sending us a list.
2. A match is found and both say yes
We compare codes, never names. You and the fund each agree before anything is shared.
3. The fund pays its member
The fund confirms its own member and pays the pension. The fund pays us per confirmed match.
Once funds join, matching agents run around the clock: they compare the coded records on both sides, score every possible match and never see a readable name. A person at the fund confirms each match before anything is paid.
AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity can bring people and funds here through our connector, explain GPFR in 24 languages, and register a person who has read our consent text and said yes. The person always confirms the sign-up themselves, by email, and gives every yes to a fund themselves.

Questions
What is a pension register, and what is GPFR?
GPFR, the Global Pension Finding Register, is a free register for people who worked abroad. You add yourself once. As pension funds join, they check GPFR for former members they cannot reach. Nothing is shared without your yes.
How do I find my pension from working abroad?
Two ways that work together. A report identifies who holds your pensions now. GPFR lets a fund find you later: as pension funds join, they check GPFR for former members they cannot reach. Funds often lose touch with members who moved.
Is it really free? Who pays?
Free for you, always. Pension funds and trustees pay us per confirmed match, when we help them reach a member. You never pay, and we take nothing from your pension.
What happens to my name and date of birth?
On this page, your browser turns them into codes before anything is sent. Through an AI assistant, they reach our server as text and our server turns them into codes on receipt. Either way we keep only the codes, under UK GDPR (ICO registration ZC113586), never the text. Nothing goes to a fund unless you and the fund both say yes. We delete your entry after 24 months without activity, or within a day when you ask.
How do you know sign-ups are real people?
We screen out fake and duplicate sign-ups. The pension fund confirms your identity before anything is paid, and money only ever goes from the fund to its own member. We confirm every email address, block automated sign-ups and look for duplicates.
Do AI agents match me?
Once funds join, matching agents compare the coded records on both sides around the clock and never see a readable name; a person at the fund confirms each match. AI assistants can already explain GPFR and register you once you have read our consent text and said yes, but you always confirm by email yourself, and only you can say yes to a fund.
