Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What does the loan calculator show?

Enter your loan amount, annual interest rate and term to see your estimated monthly payment, total interest and total repayment amount.

How is the monthly payment calculated?

It uses the standard loan amortization formula, so each payment is split into interest and principal exactly the way lenders schedule fixed-rate loans.

What is APR?

APR is the annual cost of borrowing expressed as a rate. It reflects the interest rate plus most lender fees, which makes it useful for comparing loan offers.

What are interest-only payments?

With interest-only payments you pay just the interest charge each month and the loan balance stays the same. The tool shows both standard and interest-only schedules.

Is the loan calculator free?

Yes. It is free to use with no signup and no limits.

What is loan amortization?

Amortization is the process of paying off a loan through regular monthly payments over time. Early payments go mostly toward interest, while later payments go mostly toward the principal. An amortization schedule shows this split for every payment across the life of the loan.

What is the difference between a fixed and variable interest rate?

A fixed rate stays the same for the entire loan term, so your monthly payment never changes. A variable rate can move up or down with market rates, which means your payment can change. Fixed rates offer predictability; variable rates sometimes start lower but carry more risk.

Can I see how extra payments affect my loan?

Yes. Enter a shorter term or a lower loan amount to simulate the effect of extra payments. Paying even a small amount extra each month reduces the total interest significantly over the life of a long-term loan.
