Enter assumptions and select Calculate.

Simplified monthly model

Each month, interest equals remaining balance × APR ÷ 12, then the fixed payment is applied. Target mode solves for a fixed payment and verifies it through the same bounded schedule.

Issuer differences

Actual cards may use daily periodic rates, average daily balances, statement timing, minimum-payment rules, fees, and grace periods. This estimate is not debt counseling, credit repair, or financial advice.

Worked example

A $5,000 balance at 20% APR with a fixed $200 monthly payment is simulated month by month until the final capped payment.

Estimate boundaries

Results depend entirely on entered assumptions. They do not retrieve lender terms, approval decisions, issuer data, live rates, routes, fuel prices, or professional financial advice.
