A shared plain-English glossary covering common Irish money and support terms that appear across the app.
Resource explainer
Many users do not need a formal definition. They need enough plain-English context to understand why a term matters in a real decision about work, budgeting, support or housing.
This glossary is designed to reduce friction and make the rest of the platform easier to follow.
Terms linked to eligibility, tax, tenancies or pension rights can have technical meanings. Use official Irish guidance for the final detail when a decision depends on it.
That way the glossary stays helpful without pretending to replace regulated or legal information.
