Who is it for?
Anyone carrying a credit card balance who wants a clear plan and date to be debt-free.
How to use it
Enter the Card balance, the Interest rate (APR) and what You pay every month. The answer appears as you type; there is no Calculate button. Pick your Currency at the top if asked, then tap Copy result or Share on WhatsApp.
Card interest is expensive
- Indian cards often charge 3–3.75% a month: 36–45% a year. US cards often charge 20–30% APR.
- Paying only the minimum due (often 5% in India) can take years and cost more in interest than the original purchase.
- Once you carry a balance, new purchases usually lose the interest-free period too, until the full balance is paid.
Getting out faster
- Card interest is among the costliest debt. Paying even a little more each month cuts the interest a lot. Try raising the payment by ₹1,000 or $50 and watch the months fall.
- Stop using the card while paying it off.
- A personal loan at 12–16%, or a balance-transfer offer, can be far cheaper than card interest. Check fees first.
- With several cards, pay extra on the highest rate first (the avalanche method).
If you can’t pay, talk to the bank early about an EMI conversion or settlement plan; missed payments hurt your CIBIL score.
Errors and how to fix them
- This payment does not even cover the monthly interest: raise the monthly payment, or the balance grows forever.
