How to use this personal loan calculator

Use this personal loan calculator to compare fixed installment offers on a consistent payment and interest basis. Origination fees can reduce cash received even when they are not added to the financed balance.

  1. 1

    Enter the amount needed

    Use required net proceeds and check whether fees are deducted before disbursement.

  2. 2

    Add quoted rate and term

    Enter the annual rate and number of repayment years.

  3. 3

    Compare payment and total cost

    Review both cash-flow affordability and total interest across offers.

Worked planning example

Example: compare three-year and five-year personal loans

Set up

Model the same loan amount and rate over three years.

Compare

Extend to five years and compare the lower payment with additional interest.

Takeaway

A longer term can make the payment easier while keeping the borrower in debt much longer.

Compare usable proceeds and APR

The stated balance, cash received, and effective borrowing cost may differ when fees are deducted.

  • Review origination fees.
  • Check prepayment and late-payment terms.
  • Avoid borrowing more because a longer term lowers payment.
