How does the smart matching work?

When you report a lost or found item, our algorithm compares it against all existing reports using category, document numbers, serial numbers, color, brand, model, and location. If the confidence score reaches 70% or higher, both parties are notified.

How do I pay the finder's reward?

Once a match is confirmed, you can pay the finder's reward directly through the app using MTN MoMo or Orange Money. The platform takes a 20% service fee, and the finder receives the rest instantly.

Is WeFoundIt free to use?

Yes! Reporting lost or found items is completely free for individual users. You only pay when you choose to reward a finder. Institutions can subscribe to premium plans starting at 25,000 XAF/month.

Can institutions like police stations use WeFoundIt?

Yes! Police stations, bus parks, universities, and hotels can register as institutions with bulk item registration, a dedicated dashboard, analytics, and priority matching.

What if I can't find a match right away?

Your report stays active for 30 days. Our matching algorithm runs every time a new item is reported, so you'll be notified automatically if a match appears later. You can also boost your report for more visibility.

How do I prove an item is mine?

When you claim a found item, you may be asked to provide proof of ownership, a receipt, a photo of you with the item, the serial number, or a description of unique features. This protects finders from false claims.

Is my personal information safe on WeFoundIt?

Absolutely. Your phone number and email are never shown to other users, they are automatically obscured. All communication happens through secure in-app chat. We never share your data with third parties.

How much does it cost to collect a found ID document?

The collection fee for any identification document (CNI, passport, driver's license, student ID) is a flat 3,000 XAF. Pay in person at the partner location when you pick up your document.

How do finders earn rewards on WeFoundIt?

When a finder registers a found item and it's matched with an owner, the owner pays a reward. The finder receives 85% of the reward instantly via MTN MoMo or Orange Money. Default rewards range from 2,000 to 20,000 XAF depending on item type.
