What is a Credit Card Payoff Calculator?

A credit card payoff calculator tells you how many months it will take to pay off your balance with a given monthly payment, and how much total interest you'll pay. With credit card APRs often 20%+, carrying a balance is extremely expensive.

Formula Used

Monthly Interest = Balance × (APR/12) Balance(next) = Balance + Monthly Interest − Payment

Example Calculation

Example — US — $8,000 at 22.99% APR, paying $250/month

Payoff: 46 months | Total Interest: $3,525 | Total Paid: $11,525

Example — UK — £4,000 at 19.9% APR, paying £150/month

Payoff: 36 months | Total Interest: £1,026 | Total Paid: £5,026

Example — Canada

C$6,000 balance at 19.99% APR, C$200/month payments. Payoff time: 42 months | Total interest: C$2,298 | Total paid: C$8,298

Why Use This Calculator?

Many people only pay the minimum on their credit cards, which can take decades to pay off. This calculator shows you exactly how changing your monthly payment affects your timeline and total interest. Even adding $50/month can save hundreds in interest.

What is the minimum payment trap?▾

Most card issuers set minimums at 1–2% of balance. At 22.99% APR, a $5,000 balance with minimum payments only could take 20+ years and cost $7,000+ in interest.

Should I pay off or invest?▾

If your card's APR exceeds your expected investment return, pay off the card first. With APRs of 20%+, paying off debt is usually the better guaranteed 'return.'

What is a balance transfer?▾

A balance transfer moves your debt to a card with 0% intro APR (typically 12–18 months), saving interest if you pay it off in that window.

💡 Tip: Doubling your minimum payment can cut your payoff time by 60% and save thousands in interest.
