Personal Loan Calculator
Compare loan offers using total repayment rather than the advertised payment alone.
Personal Loan Calculator estimate
How the estimate works
The monthly payment uses the standard fixed-rate amortization formula. The estimated origination fee is shown separately from interest.
Important limitation
Some lenders deduct origination fees from proceeds while requiring repayment of the full face amount. Results are estimates only and are not financial, lending, legal, tax, or investment advice.
