Start your own business with the start-up grant!
Many people dream of becoming self-employed and realizing their own dreams. For some, financial uncertainty is an obstacle at the beginning. But this is not necessary. Many people dream of becoming self-employed and realizing their own dreams. For some, financial uncertainty is an obstacle at the beginning. But this is not necessary. The start-up grant is a subsidy in the amount of your unemployment benefit plus €300. This is paid for six months and does not have to be repaid, even if you decide against self-employment during the six months. One of the requirements for the start-up grant is that you must still be entitled to ALG 1 for 150 days.
You can calculate the amount of your start-up grant here. Please note that the result calculated and displayed here is only intended as a guide for you. The exact value still depends on the tax class, your place of residence and the average gross income of the last 6 months. But we want to keep it simple here.
The result is therefore not legally binding.
Do you receive unemployment benefit 1?
I do not receive unemployment benefit 1.
A prerequisite for the start-up grant is that you are receiving unemployment benefit 1. If you are receiving citizen’s allowance, you have the option of receiving an AVGS for coaching. For example, for the areas of taxes, accounting, website, marketing strategy, business plan. At the end of the coaching programme, your viability can be certified and you can receive start-up money for nine months. After all, that’s €300 per month. It’s best to book a free appointment directly and we’ll explain all the next steps to you.
I will soon be receiving unemployment benefit 1.
This is very good, because a prerequisite for receiving the start-up grant is that you become self-employed from unemployment and are still entitled to at least 150 days of unemployment benefit 1. Would you like to work out how much the start-up grant will be?
Click on .I am employed.
You are not initially entitled to a start-up grant if you are currently employed. The prerequisite for this is that you are in receipt of benefits and have at least 150 days of remaining entitlement to unemployment benefit 1. Nevertheless, you should keep this in mind, because very often it is not possible to be self-employed if you are still working full-time. Simply cancelling your contract in order to receive unemployment benefit is associated with a possible suspension. If you’re thinking about it, be sure to seek advice. Book a free appointment with us.
Are you still entitled to at least 150 days of unemployment benefit 1?
I have no 150 days of unemployment benefit 1.
In addition to receiving unemployment benefit 1, a prerequisite for the start-up subsidy is a minimum remaining period of unemployment benefit of 150 days. In many cases, an AVGS (activation and placement voucher) can be issued. You can use this to complete a start-up coaching programme. For example, on the topics of business plan including figures, marketing strategy, website, search engine optimisation, logo, corporate identity, accounting and taxes.

A smart business differs from traditional self-employment in many ways,
as smart companies are concerned, among other things, with the development and construction of systems that help transform services into products.
However, a smart company is not an escalator to automatic wealth and success.
Here too (as with traditional start-ups), it is necessary to go about your work with care and perseverance. This applies in particular to products with a wow effect and the development of a fan base of customers.
Specially certified coaches are available for Smart Business Concepts Coaching.
