Loan Calculators

Whether you are financing a car, consolidating debt or repaying student loans, the numbers that matter are the same: payment, term, total interest and fees. These calculators show them side by side.

Compare loans on total cost

A lower payment often means a longer term and more interest. Use the auto loan calculator and personal loan calculator to compare terms, and look at the effective APR when fees are involved. For education debt, the student loan calculator shows how extra payments shorten repayment.

Before you borrow

Check your credit reports, compare at least three offers and make sure the payment fits your budget. Read how a credit score affects a loan to understand how pricing works.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between APR and interest rate?

The interest rate is the cost of borrowing the principal. APR also includes certain fees, so it better reflects the total cost.

Is a shorter loan term better?

A shorter term costs less interest but has a higher monthly payment. Choose the shortest term you can pay comfortably.
