Open Credit Card Payoff CalculatorHow the estimate works
Interest is compounded monthly using APR divided by 12. The calculator subtracts the selected monthly payment until the balance reaches zero.
Adding an extra monthly payment can reduce both payoff time and interest cost, especially on high APR balances.
