Use our credit card payoff calculator to visualize your debt-free timeline, reduce interest, and regain control of your finances with confidence and clarity.
Ready to get serious about paying off debt? Here's how to use the calculator:
Credit card debt can grow rapidly due to compounding interest, and managing it efficiently requires knowledge of how amortization works. This tool gives you a comprehensive simulation of your payoff plan, including how interest and principal change month-to-month.
Monthly Interest = (APR / 12) × Remaining Balance
Principal = Monthly Payment - Monthly Interest
New Balance = Previous Balance - Principal Paid
This process repeats until your balance reaches zero.
