How much is Pension Credit?

Guarantee Pension Credit tops weekly income up to £238 for a single person or £363.25 for a couple. Those are the 2026/27 guarantees used in this catalogue. If income is already over the line, there is no Guarantee Credit on these figures. Savings Credit is separate and is not included.

  • There is no £16,000 savings cap. £1 a week is counted for every £500 of savings over £10,000.
  • Extra amounts can apply for a severe disability or a carer. The check does not add those unless the facts are there.
