Money Manager for Universal Credit claimants

If you’re on Universal Credit or think you might be using it in the future, our Money Manager tool can help guide you.

We’ve made sure it:

  • supports you if you’re making a new claim or moving to Universal Credit from another benefit
  • helps you budget while waiting for your first Universal Credit payment
  • helps you if you’ve recently had a change to your benefit payment
  • gives you guidance for budgeting when you’re getting regular monthly payments
  • helps you if your income is squeezed due to cost-of-living pressures

Why use Money Manager?

  • Get information specific to your personal situation
  • Get tips for cutting costs like household bills
  • We’ll tell you what to do and where to go for extra support if you’re struggling.
