About WelfareCalc.ch

WelfareCalc.ch is an independent, private, and free information portal for people living in Switzerland or moving here.

Our goal is to create transparency in areas that are often confusing and costly for many people:

• Social benefits – AHV, IV, supplementary benefits (EL), premium reduction (IPV), social welfare, and family allowances
• Dental bills – Decode DENTOTAR codes and check whether you've been charged fairly
• Rental contracts – Identify over 30 common pitfalls before you sign

All our tools run 100% locally in your browser. No personal data is stored, no tracking tools are used, and no data is shared with third parties. Your privacy is our highest priority.

Why we do this

Every year, many people in Switzerland – especially newcomers – leave thousands of francs on the table because they don't know their rights or find the systems too complicated. At the same time, they often pay unnecessarily high amounts for dental treatment or rent because they can't properly assess invoices and contracts.

That's exactly where we step in: with simple, free, and privacy-compliant tools, we help you make better-informed decisions.

• Social Benefits Calculator – Quickly and anonymously find out which benefits you are entitled to
