See everything you're entitled toand everything your people are happy to share.

A register of the discounts, benefits and credits already attached to your life: cards, bank tier, job, memberships, phone plan. What you hold, roughly what it's worth, when it runs out.

Nationwide FlexPlus: worldwide family travel insurance
Included in the monthly fee. Cover starts with the account; only pre-existing conditions and long trips need registering first.

Sharedby choice

Made-up entries, real structure. Every line carries its terms, its expiry and how sure we are, including "we haven't checked this in a while".

The perks are not the problem. Nobody has the picture.

Britain is unusually dense with loyalty schemes, packaged accounts and bundled extras, and unusually bad at seeing them together. Three entries from the national statement:


£3bn

UK shoppers leave an estimated £3 billion a year on the table. Around 27% of loyalty points go unspent and more than one in ten expire outright: rewards take too long to earn (49%), points expire (41%), or what's on offer isn't worth chasing (39%).

£1.6bn

Roughly 10 million of the UK's 155 million subscriptions are unwanted, costing about £1.6 billion a year. Not fraud, not overspending: dead money leaving the account because nobody has the list in front of them.

A dozen apps

Your entitlements live in a bank app, a card app, two supermarket apps, a rewards tab, an employer portal you logged into once, a PDF of policy terms, and somebody else's wallet. Spotify in one app, a phone contract that bundles music in another. Revolut Premium in one, a packaged account that already covers travel in another. The two facts never meet, so the overlap is invisible.

Not a published statistic. It's the pattern in every audit we ran by hand.

Our own estimate, from audits run by hand rather than any published figure: the realistic pot for a median household is nearer £60–£150 a year than the four-figure sums this category advertises. Plus the things they had no idea existed. That second part is the interesting one.

The two-minute perks audit

No login · Nothing leaves this page

Seven questions, about ninety seconds. You get a list of what you're probably entitled to, with an honest label on every line. Possibilities to check, not holdings we've verified.

Step 1 of 7

Press Enter to continue

Three moves, and then it just keeps watching

The audit above is the first two minutes of it. The app is the same idea, kept current.


1

Add what you've got, or snap it, or forward it

Pick your cards, account tier, memberships, phone plan and life status from a list. Photograph a staff card or a noticeboard offer and 8 reads it into a structured entry; forward a perks email and it does the same. Anything odd (20% off at the gym through your football club) goes in by hand and behaves like every other record.

2

8 tells you what's in it, and when it runs out

Every entry carries its terms, the exact clause, an expiry date and a confidence state on its face. This money leaks at renewal, not at the till: the insurance date, the benefit-selection window, the Railcard, the voucher, the contract end. All predictable from dates alone, and nobody owns that reminder today. 8 sends two alerts a week at most, only on a confirmed record.

3

Share what you choose with the people close to you

Your partner, your parents, a couple of friends, each on their own account, nothing shared by default. You decide, entitlement by entitlement, what they can see. They get a second column in their register: "Ella's Amex includes two guest lounge passes." "Dad's employer runs a staff discount scheme, and here are its terms." Then they talk to a real person.

See it working, before you believe a word of it

Eight stages, eight real screens from the app. Not mock-ups, the actual thing. About three minutes, and it needs nothing from you.


  1. 1Build your registerTap what you hold. Nothing linked, nothing scraped.
  2. 2What you holdThe vault, with the confidence printed on every row.
  3. 3Keep it trueThe balances behind a login: you type them, 8 dates them.
  4. 4Expiry radarThe money leaks at renewal dates. Those are predictable.
  5. 5Ask 8What each card gives you for this purchase. A comparison, not advice.
  6. 6Paying twiceThe overlap, the steps, and the bit where you confirm it.
  7. 7Your bubbleSharing that runs on consent, never credentials.
  8. 8What 8 never doesFour refusals, each one deliberate.
Open the walkthrough No sign-up. Every figure belongs to one illustrative person, and says so.

Most perks are shareable. Almost nobody shares them.

Staff discounts extend to named household members. Memberships carry guest passes. Cards carry companion access. British Airways lets up to seven people share an Avios household account, and dropped the same-address requirement years ago. None of it moves, and the reason isn't selfishness. Nobody knows what anyone else is sitting on.

A bubble is small on purpose: partner, parents, a few close friends. It's the one thing an incumbent can't copy, because your bank cannot show you what your mother is entitled to.

Set uptogether

Visible, not authorised. Every one of these ends in a conversation with a person, not a button in 8.

What 8 doesn't do

Each of these is a decision, not a gap. They're why a registry can be trusted with the knowing.


It never links your accounts

No bank logins, no card credentials, no loyalty passwords, no employer portal sign-in. Not at launch and not later. It costs us live balances, so you type those in and 8 prints "as of 12 March" beside the figure. Honest and slightly stale beats invented and fresh.

It never activates, cancels or buys

8 will tell you six card offers expire on Friday and open the right screen in the right app. You tap. There is no "✓ cancellation requested": that's a lie you'd discover on your next statement, and automated activation is the pattern getting people's cards frozen elsewhere.

It never gives financial advice

No "get this card", no "cancel this policy", no ranked recommendation of a regulated product. 8 shows what you hold, what its terms say, and the facts of UK consumer law that apply to everyone. Where two things overlap it shows both, limits and excesses and exclusions side by side, plus the questions to ask. You decide.

It never claims a saving it can't stand behind

No "£412 accumulated" counted the moment you tapped a button. If you tell us you used something, we record that you told us, label it self-reported and show the count beside it. Nothing else gets counted, including everything on this page, which is an estimate and says so.
