How this tool works

Enter your credit card balance, APR, and monthly payment to estimate how long it may take to pay off your balance.

The credit card payoff calculator estimates your payoff time, payoff date, total interest, total amount paid, and approximate final payment based on the information you enter.

You can also add an optional extra monthly payment to compare a faster payoff route. The calculator will show how much time and interest you could save and estimate your new payoff date.

Interest is calculated using the APR entered and an estimated monthly interest rate. Results assume you continue making the selected payment each month and do not add new purchases or charges to the card.

Actual credit card interest may vary because issuers can use daily balance calculations, different compounding methods, fees, changing APRs, statement dates, and other account terms.

This calculator provides estimates for educational and planning purposes and does not constitute financial advice.
