Your Elterngeld app for iPhone and Android
Check your eligibility, calculate your Elterngeld and prepare your application step by step – whenever and wherever you like. The app uses the same account as the web portal, so everything stays in sync automatically.
The app is free. The application service costs a one-time €89, same as on the web – you only pay once you hire us.

Chat & documents
Photograph documents right on your phone and upload them – and if anything is unclear, your personal contact is one chat message away.
Questions about the app
Does the app cost anything?
No, the app itself is free – just like the initial assessment. Only once you hire us for your application does the service cost a one-time €89, the same price as on the web.
What can the app do compared to the web?
Everything that matters: check your eligibility, see your estimate, fill in your application, upload documents and chat with your personal contact. App and web share the same account – start on your phone, continue on your computer whenever you like.
Is the app available for Android?
Yes – the Elterngeld app is free on Google Play, with the same features as on iPhone and in sync with your account on the web.
Is my data safe?
Yes. The app transfers your data encrypted and uses the same GDPR-compliant account as the web. We only use your details for your Elterngeld application – the details are in our privacy policy.
