    My friend runs a website which currently has no revenue. If he started promoting bookies and earning money from affiliate payments what rate of tax does he pay and what are the thresholds
    Thanks

    The same as any other income. Tax credits apply as normal.

    There is no straightforward answer to this it depends on your friends situation. Are they working, if so what are their tax credits and how much do they earn? Are they in receipt of social welfare, if so is it taxable ?
    If you are willing to answer the questions above I would be able to give you more information on you situation.

    It would likely be treated as self employment. I understand the first €2,500 or so is tax exempt.

    Thereafter normal rates and credits apply.
