Tested Irish tax and welfare calculators, in your name
Give your members, clients or staff the numbers they ask about first, on your own site: what they keep from a redundancy package, what their pension pays after tax, the tax on a gain or an inheritance. We keep every rate current, and every calculation is tested against the official worked examples.
Ask about a licenceWho uses them
- Unions: redundancy rounds, where members need the figures before they sign a pension waiver.
- Outplacement and career-transition firms: “how much do I keep?” is the first question every client asks.
- Credit unions: member tools on savings, investing and inheritance, with no developers needed.
- Accountancy practices and financial planners: answer the routine questions before the paid meeting.
- HR and payroll teams: the tax-free amount on a termination payment, worked out the way Revenue does.
