Credit Card Payoff Calculator

Estimate payoff time and interest cost for a credit card balance using your APR, minimum payment, and extra payment.

How this calculator works

The calculator applies monthly interest based on the APR you enter, then subtracts the listed monthly payment plus any extra payment amount.

Formula

Monthly interest = balance x APR / 12. New balance = balance + monthly interest - monthly payment.

Limitations

Credit card statements may use daily balance methods, fees, changing minimum payments, promotional APRs, or penalty APRs. This tool is a simplified educational estimate.
