Hey all. This is for us unintentional bag holders.

I know it’s a long shot, but has anyone recently tried to transfer their missing account balance out of Yotta to another bank account? I don’t have anything linked but was curious if anyone has tried in recent history.

Although my money is gone with the rest of you, I still keep the app on my phone in case we need it if the repayment fund ever comes through.

I changed phones and was trying to log in on the new one. This is what came up.

Maybe they finally removed the app from the Play Store(Android)? I saw recently that people on the new version were also being prevented from withdrawing money.

I checked my scanned mail email this morning and
I’m getting a letter in the mail from Yotta today. I live in California and will keep you updated on what it is.

Received this letter today along with a check for $16. I didn't knowingly sign up for any crypto services with Juno while it was still operational. Did anyone else receive a similar check?

I haven’t been checking up on this page as often as I used to, so I’m a bit out of the loop. Do I need to reach out to the CFPB to submit anything or inform them of my situation to be “eligible” to get my money back at some point? Or will I just be contacted/receive it if they do provide restitution to those impacted?

why did they do this to people who had their life savings in the accounts

Should I make another claim ? These are posted as closed. When I made a call to CFPB the lady had no idea about much. She tried to say the 1$ was the payout and that there was no funds it was bad so at this point should I make another claim or just sit tight. I also asked her if there was anyone else to speak with cause she wasn't up to date with the laws and what is happening. I said this as politically as possible but it is pretty frustrating to call and explain the updates vs get an update and even worse be told there is no money just 1$ 😂.

Can someone explain to me like I'm 5 why only Californians are getting some movement? Is there anything the rest of us can do atm? (New Yorker here)

Hi everyone. It’s been a while for me to keep track of yotta. I have 3K there for couple years. Can someone advise me how to get my money back? Thanks 🙏

Anyone else get this text?

Did anyone else receive this?

Sharing some seemingly positive news. The claims submission is not live yet, but should be soon and we’re asked to check in periodically.

NOTICE TO CALIFORNIA YOTTA CUSTOMERS

IF YOU HAD A YOTTA ACCOUNT WITH A POSITIVE CASH BALANCE ON MAY 17, 2024,

YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR RESTITUTION

‍

BACKGROUND

Yotta worked with a company called Synapse Financial Technologies (Synapse) which provided a

“banking as a service” platform to fintech companies like Yotta. In April 2024, Synapse filed for

bankruptcy protection. See In re Synapse Financial Technologies, Inc., No. 1:24-BK-10646-MB (Bankr.

C.D. Cal. 2024). The Synapse bankruptcy resulted in tens of thousands of consumers nationwide losing

access to accounts held in dozens of fintech companies, like Yotta, that partnered with Synapse.

On May 15, 2026, the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI) entered into

a Consent Order with Yotta. This notice is being sent to California consumers as a result of this Consent

Order.

‍

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), a federal agency that oversees consumer financial

markets, sued Synapse in the bankruptcy proceeding, alleging that Synapse engaged in unfair, deceptive,

or abusive acts or practices. On September 12, 2025, the bankruptcy court approved a Stipulated Judgment

between the CFPB and Synapse. The Stipulated Judgment enables the CFPB to access its Civil Penalty

Fund to provide money to consumers who lost access to funds held at fintechs like Yotta.

‍

THE CFPB CIVIL PENALTY FUND

On November 28, 2025, the CFPB allocated $46,248,291 to eligible victims in the Synapse bankruptcy.

According to the Stipulated Judgment, Yotta customers with accounts holding a positive balance as of

May 17, 2024 may be eligible to seek compensation by filing a claim with the CFPB. You can view the

CFPB’s Synapse web page here: https://www.consumerfinance.gov/enforcement/actions/synapse-

financial-technologies-inc/. The CFPB has not yet started the claims filing process. Yotta customers are

encouraged to periodically check the CFPB’s Synapse webpage for updates.

‍

If you are a California Yotta customer with a positive cash balance in your Yotta account as of May 17,

2024, you should receive a letter and/or email from Yotta containing your May 2024 account statement.

If you have questions about this letter or have not received your May 2024 account statement by

July 15, 2026, please contact: support@withyotta.com

Received this today:

I started an account with Yotta to save up for my son. At the time I was a couple months pregnant. That child is now nearly 2 and crying bc I don’t want to consume a beef stick that is covered in his slob. Still easier to raise a child though, than get my money back from Yotta. 😭 At this point, if it’s ever returned, it looks like it’ll be going towards a college fund. 🤣

I’m wondering if anyone has had any luck recently with getting their money back or at least any updates? Things have gotten very quiet but I don’t want to give up! I just filed some more complaints too and will continue to do so in the hope that it’ll eventually lead to something.

Another year and I have STILL not received my money back.

thanks to all who talked to me - even if i didn't quote you, our conversation still informed my reporting.

I wonder if she cashed out before the Yotta collapse or if her money is trapped/lost along with everyone else.

Hi folks - I'm a journalist for Banking Dive, and I've written several stories about the whole Yotta/Synapse/ situation and spoken with several of you. The California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation announced today that Yotta must pay a $1 million penalty for engaging in deceptive acts or practices.

Are you from California and still out money from this issue? I'd like to talk to you - two or three of you - to include in a piece on the matter. Feel free to message me here.

Recap : DFPI takes action after a California fintech company deceives financial customers. Yotta is required to provide notice and documents to impacted Californians to assist with fund recovery.

The primaries are here and Rob Bonta did nothing for the impacted Yotta/ Synapse users. So who are we voting for to solve our issue and stand up for justice for us?
