Abstract	The B-Factories Belle and BaBar provided an excellent environment to search for light mediators in the GeV mass range at e+e- colliders. I will first give an overview of the searches at Belle and BaBar. In the second part I will describe the sensitivity and first results of the Super B-Factory Belle II that started data taking in 2019. With dedicated triggers for light mediator searches, Belle II offers unique opportunities to search for axion-like particles, light Z', invisible final states, and extended Dark Matter models with long-lived signatures.
