The Perfect Income Maximisation Tool for Teams

5
The calculator is easy to use and would be a good system for anyone who wants to check if they are missing out on extra financial support. It only takes about five minutes to navigate through the clear, straightforward questions. What I like most is the visual scenario tool. It allows you to shift your working hours or income around to see exactly how your Universal Credit or council tax discounts change in real-time. It completely takes the guessing out of budgeting and planning for the future. Reviewed on: 14th July 2026

The ups and downs

4
Policy in practice gives the benefit calculation whilst working through with the client, it gives us a realistic idea of what the client could possibly apply for to benefit their situation and possibly maximise their income. It is easy to use and follow, however, due to legislation changes, some things including the child benefit calculation were delayed, however, I can understand this is expected when changes come in. It was still easy to fix and work with. Reviewed on: 14th July 2026

Working for SNG, we offer this service to our customers and the outcomes have been amazing, being able to save customers money is just an incredible feeling by helping them budget, but also showing them what they can claim if not already doing so feels great. Reviewed on: 14th July 2026
