Good to know
The loan calculator calculates the payment, interest, and total repayment for a fixed-rate annuity loan directly in your browser. The interest rate can be entered as a nominal or effective annual rate with its own compounding frequency, and the payment frequency ranges from daily through weekly to annual.
Typical searches include loan payment calculator, loan calculator, and amortization schedule. Calculation runs locally in the browser. An optional recurring extra payment per installment shows saved payments and interest; fees, insurance, and variable rates can make real offers differ.
Typical use cases
Compare loan offers
Compare the payment and total interest of different offers by setting the nominal or effective annual rate and payment frequency to match each offer.
Check the effect of recurring extra payments
Enable an additional payment per installment to see how many payments and how much interest that saves.
Reuse the payment plan as a CSV
Download the full payment plan with interest and principal portions as a CSV to process further in a spreadsheet.
Tips for better results
Don't confuse nominal and effective rate
Choose the matching rate type for your offer and set the compounding frequency correctly, otherwise the result will deviate from the real payment.
Watch the maximum term
The calculation supports a maximum of 100 years or 5,200 payments; with a very high payment frequency and long term, this limit can be reached faster than expected.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between nominal and effective rate?
The nominal rate doesn't account for compounding effects within a year, while the effective annual rate does — depending on the chosen compounding frequency.
Can I factor in a recurring extra payment?
Yes. Enable the option for an additional payment per installment; the tool then shows saved payments and interest compared to the scheduled course.
Are my inputs uploaded?
