The Employee Retention Credit created a massive opportunity — but most businesses are still waiting for their refund. Our ERC Buyout program converts your pending IRS refund into immediate working capital.
For businesses that want to keep their full refund but need help navigating the IRS — ERC Accelerate provides concierge processing, advocacy, and execution support throughout the claims process.
The Research & Development tax credit is one of the most valuable and underutilized incentives in the tax code. Businesses investing in innovation, engineering, software, or process improvement often qualify — even if they don't think of themselves as doing "R&D."
Real estate owners are leaving significant tax savings on the table through standard depreciation timelines. Cost Segregation accelerates those deductions — creating immediate cash flow improvements and tax shield benefits.
Under IRC Section 45B, hospitality and food service employers can claim a federal tax credit for the FICA taxes paid on employee tips — turning a routine payroll expense into a meaningful tax benefit.
Payment infrastructure is often an overlooked cost center. We optimize your merchant processing with competitive interchange rates, global capabilities, enhanced fraud protection, and specialized solutions for high-risk and specialty industries.
Our four-step process is built for efficiency, compliance, and results. No guesswork. No bureaucratic dead-ends.
We begin with a comprehensive evaluation of your business profile. We identify all applicable recovery and optimization opportunities across our full suite of verticals — ERC, R&D, Cost Segregation, FICA Tip, and Merchant Processing. No opportunity is overlooked.
For each identified opportunity, our team conducts an in-depth eligibility review. We provide documentation guidance, assess your compliance posture, and structure the approach before any work begins. Every claim is built on a solid, defensible foundation.
This is where our infrastructure advantage becomes clear. For ERC Buyouts, our underwriting teams process and fund within days. For R&D and Cost Segregation, we coordinate studies and filings. For Merchant Processing, deployment is fast and seamless. Our CRM and documentation systems handle the complexity.
Whether it's a funded ERC buyout, an approved tax credit, accelerated depreciation, or a lower processing rate — the result is capital working inside your business. We provide full transparency on outcomes and continue to identify new stacking opportunities going forward.

There's money out there with your name on it — tax credits, government programs, refunds most people never hear about. We help you bring it home.
We spent years inside this industry — building its marketing, running its numbers, filing its claims by the thousands. And we watched too many of its players take the money and run.
So we spent a year quietly vetting nearly every operator in the game. Most didn't make the cut. The Found Money Project is built on the few that did.
If you can claim it yourself, we'll show you how — and step aside.
Every operator we connect you with survived scrutiny set by a Certified Fraud Examiner.
No fees, no products to push. The money we recover already belongs to you.
Bill has built and grown more than a dozen companies with combined revenues in the billions and directed the marketing behind over $50 billion in sales — and he'll still tell you most advertising is a waste of money. Real marketing, he'll say, is about trust, familiarity, and connection, not selling. After driving nearly 100,000 leads for a multi-billion dollar tax credit program, he fell in love with a simple idea: helping people collect money they never knew was theirs. FMP is his passion project.
Trevor has spent over two decades uncovering opportunities people didn't know existed — as a CPA, forensic accountant, and Certified Fraud Examiner who's testified as an expert witness. He built one of Las Vegas's most productive boutique firms, then designed the systems behind an operation that processed more than 10,000 tax credit claims in a single year. At FMP, vetting isn't a promise — it's his profession. No partner joins the Project without going through Trevor's vetting process first.
Sean builds fast and takes initiative, leading multiple teams and projects. He set his brokerage's all-time sales record of selling 14 homes in his first ten months as a Realtor, then grew a company to 63 employees within a year of founding it — and when it hit trouble, he wore every title in the building trying to save it. He'll tell you about that failure himself, because that's the kind of company this is. Since 2020, he's built the lead generation and middle-of-funnel systems for insurance, government programs, and tax credits. Today he's the connective tissue of FMP — running point across every team, project, and partner.

On February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 that the IEEPA tariffs were never lawful. Since then, CBP has repaid over $86 billion — and most of it went to large importers with in-house trade teams who filed on day one. Roughly $80 billion is still outstanding, and much of it belongs to small and mid-size businesses that don't know they're eligible, don't have their entry data organized, or filed and got stuck on paperwork. The big guys got paid. Now it's your turn.
The Court ruled in Learning Resources v. Trump that IEEPA doesn't authorize the President to impose tariffs — meaning the reciprocal and fentanyl tariffs collected since 2025 were invalid from day one. The Court of International Trade has since ordered CBP to refund the duties, and refunds are being processed through a new system called CAPE.
Refunds flow through CAPE declarations filed in CBP's ACE Portal — and only the importer of record can file. Claims require entry-level documentation, correct banking registration, and the right phase. Thousands of approved refunds are currently stalled on paperwork errors alone. This is a process that rewards precision, not patience.
We don't get paid until you do. Our team handles the full recovery process — documentation, filing, government correspondence — and takes a percentage of what we recover. If we don't recover, you owe nothing.
