About this product

The Better Off Calculator is a tool that quickly calculates your benefit entitlement and shows you what money you may be missing out on. It shows you what steps you can take to strengthen your finances with a focus on actionable advice.

You can use the free calculator to see what help you are eligible for, and see clearly how changes in earnings or hours will impact your income.

If you're an advisor you can get more features in our professional calculator so that you can work out the exact amount of next Universal Credit payments, and create personalised action plans and smart budgets for customers.

With the Better Off Calculator you don’t need to be a policy expert to understand what changes to the welfare system mean for you.

I use it for my work at citizens advice bureau, we utilize this tool so that we can see what clients are entitled too, and what certain differences may affect their outcomes. Im not really an expert at using it yet but as someone that is dyslexic its reltively easy and simple to use. Reviewed on: 28th May 2024
