Three questions to find out how much you should receive from retirement

years

This helps us know how many years are left until retirement.
years

If you don't know, we count from the age of 23, without interruptions.
€

The gross salary. It's on your pay slip.
We account for retirement at the legal age and with the rules of 2026, which may change.

How we calculate

We use the general rule of Social Security, with your numbers.
  1. The average of your salaries

    The pension is based on the average of salaries over the entire career, up to 40 years, and not the last salary.That's why it's almost always lower
  2. The years of contributions

    Each year of contributions is worth between 2.0% and 2.3% of that average. With 40 years, the pension reaches about 90% of the average.Fewer years, lower pension
  3. The age

    The legal age rises with life expectancy. Before it, there is a cut of 0.5% per month. Afterwards, a bonus.Every month counts
This is an estimate with today's rules, which may change until you retire. The official simulation is done on Social Security Direct, with your actual career.

Illustrative cases

Illustration of Fátima in Viana do Castelo, calculating retirement
Illustrative example

Fátima planned to retire at 63, like her mother.

She lives in Viana do Castelo and is 52 years old. She had some years without contributions when her children were young, and today she earns €1,150 gross per month. She had never done the math. She wanted to know when she can retire and how much she can count on.Age: 52 years · 23 years of contributions, with 6 years without contributing · net salary today: €938
  1. 1The question: “Can I retire at 63? And how much will I get?”
  2. 2What the simulator showed: she cannot retire at 63. To retire before the legal age, she needs 40 years of contributions at 60, and she will have 31. In her case, the retirement age should be 67 years and 9 months. At that time, the pension is about €944 net per month: €89 for every €100 of the last salary.
  3. 3The result: she found out when she can retire and how much she can count on. She decided to set aside part of her Christmas bonus every year and talked to CrediSegur about a PPR.

“I preferred to know now. I still have fifteen years to organize myself.” — FátimaIllustrative case: character and values are fictional and serve only to demonstrate the simulator's operation. The pension is an estimate with the rules of 2026 and does not replace the Segurança Social simulation.

Illustrative example

Glória and Horácio don't want to lose income when they retire.

They live in Caldas da Rainha. Glória is 45 years old and earns €2,800 gross per month. They calculated for her first. Those who earn more lose more when transitioning to retirement. They wanted to know how much to set aside each month.Earns today, net: €1,906 · at the end of the career, should earn: €2,247 · already has €12,000 and sets aside €50 per month
  1. 1The question: “To not lose income when I retire, how much do I need to save?”
  2. 2What the simulator showed: the estimated pension is €2,088 net per month, at 67 years and 10 months. There's a gap of €162 to the €2,250 she wants. To cover them, she needs to gather €64,795: more €91 per month than she already saves.
  3. 3The result: she started setting aside €141 per month. Part of it goes to a PPR, which gives her up to €350 in IRS discount every year.

What is true and what is myth about retirement

Four ideas we often hear, and what to do about each.
  • Myth“Retirement is calculated based on the last salary.”False. It considers the average salary over the entire career, up to 40 years. A raise at the end of the career has little impact.What to do: Check your career on Segurança Social Direta. Missing years lower the pension.
  • Truth“The retirement age increases almost every year.”True. It is 66 years and 9 months in 2026 and 66 years and 11 months in 2027. It rises with life expectancy.What to do: Calculate with the age you will need to meet, not today's age.
  • Depends“I can retire at 60.”Depends. Only those with 40 years of contributions at 60 can do so, and with a cut of 0.5% for each month missing until the legal age.What to do: See how much each year of early retirement costs before deciding.
  • Myth“It's too late to start saving.”False. The earlier you start, the less it costs per month, but starting at 50 still gives 15 years or more of savings and interest.What to do: Start with an amount you can maintain every month.
