Why we built it

Working out entitlement to supports like HAP, the Medical Card and the Working Family Payment means moving across several different government websites, each with its own thresholds and wording. BenefitCheck Ireland brings that first step into one place so people can see what they may qualify for before they start filling in forms.

Common questions

Is BenefitCheck Ireland free?
Yes. The app is free to download and free to use on both the App Store and Google Play. There are no in-app purchases and no subscription.
Does the app collect my personal data?
No. BenefitCheck Ireland runs entirely on your device. There is no account, no sign-up, and none of the information you enter is transmitted or stored anywhere outside your phone.
Does it work without an internet connection?
Yes. All eligibility rules and thresholds are held in the app itself, so every check works offline.
Is this an official government service?
No. BenefitCheck Ireland is an independent app built by NoviNine Entertainment Limited. It gives an indication of potential entitlement and is not a decision on any application. Official applications are made through the relevant government body.
