Enter one loan scenario
Enter the loan amount, term, interest rate, compounding frequency, payment frequency, and fees. Select Calculate to display the estimated rate, payment totals, and amortization table. Review what the fee fields include before comparing two offers.
Separate principal, interest, and fees
Principal is the amount being repaid. Interest is the modeled borrowing charge over time. Fees can change the cost even when two offers show the same interest rate. The amortization table shows how the modeled balance changes through scheduled payments.
Compare like with like
Keep the amount, term, payment timing, and fee treatment consistent when comparing scenarios. Change one input, record the result, then restore it before testing another. The calculator’s “Real APR” label describes its estimate and does not certify a legally required disclosure.
Check an actual offer against its documents
A lender’s agreement and disclosures determine the applicable costs, dates, payment rules, and charges. This page may omit factors included in that agreement. It does not guarantee approval, a rate, or a payoff result. Use the estimate to organize questions rather than treating it as a substitute for the lender’s figures.
