Find out which UK benefits you may be able to claim
Answer a short set of questions. We compare them with official eligibility rules and show you what to do next.
It usually takes about 5 minutes. You do not need to create an account to get a report.

How it works
- Answer a few questions. Tell us about where you live, your household, work, housing, health and caring — only what is needed.
- We apply the rules. A deterministic eligibility engine compares your answers with structured UK benefit rules, including differences across nations.
- See what may apply. Get a report of benefits you may be eligible for, what might still need checking, and what is unlikely to apply.
- Claim the official way. Follow step-by-step instructions and official government links. We never invent phone numbers or application URLs.
Warning: This is guidance, not a government decision. Only the relevant government department can confirm eligibility and make a payment.
Benefit Badger is an independent service. We always send you to GOV.UK, mygov.scot, nidirect or another official page to apply. You can also browse UK benefits A–Z or what benefits you can claim by circumstance.
