Universal Credit is an installment for individuals more than 18 yet under State Pension age who are on a low income or jobless. It incorporates support for the expense of lodging, kids and childcare, and financial help for individuals with disabilities, careers and individuals too sick to even consider working.

In the UK, Universal Credit is a substitute for a variety of benefits. Many countries, including the United Kingdom, provide their citizens with a range of social benefits. They may be payments for births of children in order to increase the birth rate, payments to unemployed or disabled people, payments to single mothers, etc. It used to be that such payments were made in the UK, but they replaced it with a universal loan.

In addition to the Universal Loan, the following payments are replaced:
- Child tax exemption;
- an allowance for housing;
- financial assistance;
- Unemployment insurance benefits;
- A guide to supporting materials.
- Tax credit for businesses.

All these payments will be replaced by a one-year loan starting in March 2022.

Universal credit is a system that replaces existing social welfare benefits with a single monthly payment. This means that those on low incomes will not need to go through the chaos of claiming various benefits and will instead receive one single monthly payment. Universal credit is currently available nationwide, but only to new claimants or those transferring from legacy benefits.
