Loan Payment Calculator
Estimate monthly loan payments from principal, interest rate and term.
Tip: Compare the monthly payment and the total interest; a lower payment can still cost more over a longer term.
What is this calculator for?
A loan payment calculator estimates the monthly installment for a fixed-rate loan using the loan amount, annual interest rate and repayment term. It is most useful before applying for a car loan, personal loan or mortgage because it shows both affordability and total interest. The standard amortization formula spreads interest and principal across the term, so early payments contain more interest and later payments repay more principal. Fees, variable rates and insurance can change the final bank offer, so use the result as a planning estimate.

Questions and answers
What affects the monthly loan payment most?
The loan amount, interest rate and term are the biggest drivers. Extra fees can also increase the real cost.
Is this the same as a bank offer?
No. It is an estimate. A bank may include fees, insurance, variable-rate terms or eligibility conditions.
