Debt Reduction Tips

The Impact of Extra Payments

Even small extra payments go directly toward the principal, reducing the amount interest is calculated on. This has a massive compounding effect over time.

Payoff Date vs. Interest Saved

Focusing on the payoff date helps with motivation, while focusing on interest saved helps you choose which debt to prioritize based on cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this for credit cards?

Yes! Enter your current balance and APR. If you stop charging new purchases, this will show you exactly when that card will be clear.

Does my credit score matter here?

The calculator uses the interest rate you've already been given. Your credit score only affects the rate you 'could' get if you refinance.
