FAQ

How does this personal loan payoff calculator work?

Enter your balance and APR to see the fixed monthly payment, months to payoff, and total interest at each standard term, plus what an extra $100 a month toward principal saves. Personal loans use simple monthly interest calculated on the remaining balance.

Why is my personal loan APR different from someone else’s?

Personal loans are typically unsecured, so the rate is driven almost entirely by credit score and history at approval. That’s why the same loan amount can carry rates from single digits to over 20% depending on the borrower.

Should I pay off a personal loan before other debt?

It depends on balance size relative to your other debts. The debt snowball method pays minimums on everything and directs extra money at whichever balance is smallest, a personal loan included, regardless of its rate.

Other debt types: credit card payoff calculator, car loan payoff calculator, student loan payoff calculator.

Atlas tracks your real balance and recomputes your payoff date as you pay it down.
