Credit Card Payoff Calculator

Estimate how long one credit card balance could take to pay off when the balance, APR, and monthly payment remain fixed.

Estimate card payoff

Enter figures, then select estimate card payoff.

How to use it

  1. Check the latest statement for the current balance and APR.
  2. Enter a payment higher than the estimated monthly interest.
  3. Try a few sustainable payment amounts, then compare them against your budget.

Assumptions and limitations

The existing model assumes a fixed APR and fixed payment, calculated monthly. It excludes new purchases, balance transfers, minimum-payment changes, late fees, annual fees, promotional offers, and issuer-specific compounding methods. Actual statements control.

Question readers ask

Can I use this for several cards?

Use one card at a time for a clearer estimate. A multi-card repayment plan needs each balance, rate, minimum payment, and any changes in your circumstances.
