What makes up the totalprincipalinterestfeesChange one input and watch which block moves. That is usually more useful than the total itself.

The formula

Total cost = payment × months + fees, for each offer

Every result on this page comes from this formula. Nothing is rounded until the final display, so figures match a spreadsheet to the cent.

How to use the Loan Comparison Calculator

  1. Fill in each field with your own figures — the defaults are only there as an example.
  2. The result updates as you type, so there is no button to press.
  3. Check the breakdown under the main result for the supporting numbers.
  4. Use the copy button to take the result with you, or share the link to reload the same inputs.
