FAQ
- How long will it take to pay off my debt?
- Months to payoff is how many payments of minimum plus extra it takes to reach a zero balance at the APR you enter, assuming a fixed payment.
- How much interest can extra payments save?
- Interest saved is the difference between paying the minimum only and paying the minimum plus extra. Even a modest extra amount can cut months and interest on high-APR balances.
- What if my payment does not cover the interest?
- If the payment is at or below monthly interest, the balance will not fall. Raise the payment until it covers interest plus some principal.
