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.

It's a great product that does exactly what it says on the tin! I've had many clients benefit from it and it's made a real difference to their lives. It's easy to use, despite the difficult subject matter, and gives real, tangible results, The ability to make side by side comparisons with different scenarios allows users to make informed decisions. The calculator also means that individuals can make their own assessments, without having to take up the time of over busy public services and their employees. Reviewed on: 27th May 2025
