Key Takeaways
- ClaimMoney.com describes itself as a way to discover class actions and “track payouts and withdraw cash instantly”
- The pages we reviewed did not name the company behind it or state fees
- The Claimed app is free to download, but its App Store listing shows paid subscriptions from $6.99 to $199.99
- You never need an app to file a claim, and no legitimate settlement charges you to get paid
- Be careful about how much personal and payment information you share
What Is the Claim App?
The page at ClaimMoney.com describes the service as the “easiest way to discover class action lawsuits to join and claim settlements” for brands you already use, with payouts you can track and withdraw. It does not, in the content we could review, say which company runs it, whether it is free, or how it makes money. Apps with very similar names exist, such as Claimed, Claimly and TapClaim, so always check the exact developer name in the store listing before you download anything.
Is ClaimMoney.com Legit?
That is not proof of wrongdoing. It is a gap in transparency, and a responsible service should state its company name, pricing, refund terms and data practices clearly. Before you sign up for any settlement app, find these four things: the company’s legal name, the full price and how to cancel, any percentage taken from payouts, and the privacy policy.
Is the Claim App Free?
The App Store listing for Claimed: Make Them Pay (seller Sher Dren, copyright Claimed Inc) shows these in-app purchases: $6.99 for one week of finding claims, $39.99 or $49.99 for a year, and $199.99 for “Annual Reduced Compensation.” It holds a 3.8 rating from 38 ratings. Moneywise reports that Claimed charges no usage fees and says it earns a small percentage of successful claims, which does not match the paid purchases on the listing, so ask the company which model applies before paying. We cannot confirm whether Claimed and ClaimMoney.com are run by the same company.
Is the Claim App Legit on Reddit?
The same report also quotes social media users who say they received $250 and $1,863 through settlement apps, and says Claimed’s website claims users have collected $12 million since launch. These are self reported figures we could not verify. Small, hard to trace deposits are common because settlement payments often come from a claims administrator rather than the app.
Can You Get Paid Without the App?

Red Flags in Any Claim App
- No company name, address or contact details
- Fees hidden until after you sign up, or a percentage of payouts that is not stated clearly
- Requests for your Social Security number, bank login or card number up front
- Guaranteed payouts, since no one can guarantee a settlement payment
- Pressure to subscribe before you see which settlements you qualify for

Common Questions About the Claim App
Is the Claim app legit?
The settlements it lists are real, but we could not verify the operator or fees, so use caution.
Is ClaimMoney.com free?
The pages we reviewed did not say. Do not enter payment details until pricing is clear.
Does an app make claims faster?
It can save time finding and filling out forms, but payment speed is set by the settlement, not the app.
Can an app steal my identity?
Any app that holds personal data carries risk. Share only what a claim form needs, and never give a full Social Security number.
Do I owe tax on app claim payouts?
It depends on the settlement. See is settlement money taxable.
Summary
The Claim app and ClaimMoney.com may find real settlements, but you cannot confirm the operator or pricing from its own pages, and similar apps charge subscriptions for what is free elsewhere. Use the official settlement websites and our open settlements list first.
