Tout savoir sur Auto-Enrolment Pension Calculator
📋Présentation+
Computes 2025/26 auto-enrolment contributions: eligibility (age 22 to State Pension age, earnings over £10,000), qualifying earnings between £6,240 and £50,270, the statutory 8% minimum (at least 3% employer), relief-at-source (you pay 80% of your gross contribution) and the extra relief higher-rate taxpayers can claim.
💡 Bonnes pratiques
- The 8% minimum is 3% employer + 5% employee (including the government's 1% relief).
- Earning under £10,000? You are not auto-enrolled but can usually opt in — with employer contributions from £6,240 of earnings.
- Many employers match higher percentages — increasing your rate often triggers extra free employer money.
🔢 Exemple concret

📚Glossaire+
- Qualifying earnings
- The slice of pay between £6,240 and £50,270 (2025/26). The statutory minimum 8% applies to this band, not the full salary — unless the scheme uses a full-pay basis.
- Relief at source
- You pay 80% of your gross contribution; the provider adds the 20% basic-rate relief. Higher-rate taxpayers reclaim the rest via Self Assessment.
