Calculations run on your device — your card balance never leaves the page

Try: Each card: balance, APR (e.g. 5000,24.9,3000,21.0)=5000,24.9,3000,21.0 → 2, 1, $156.25

How to use

Enter each card as balance, APR on one line (e.g. 5000,24.9,3000,21.0). The calculator pays the minimum on every card, then throws the leftover at the highest APR first — the avalanche method. It shows total months and interest. A friend with three cards saved about $400 in interest just by reordering payments.
