Debt Avalanche Calculator

The avalanche method targets your highest interest rate first, which usually reduces the total interest you pay. It can take longer to clear the first debt, so it suits people who are motivated by the maths rather than early wins.

Your debts

Nickname each debt however you like — never enter card or account numbers. Amounts are in USD.

Debt 1
Debt 2
Debt 3

Only include what you can genuinely afford after rent, food, energy and other essentials.

Total monthly amount used: $436.00

If things are urgent right now

If you have missed rent, mortgage, energy, tax or court-ordered payments, are facing eviction or enforcement action, cannot afford food, or you are having thoughts of harming yourself, please speak to a person — not a calculator. Free, confidential and qualified debt advice exists in most countries, and using it does not harm your credit file.
