FAQ

How is the monthly payment calculated?
Monthly payment = P × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n − 1] where P is the loan amount, r is the monthly rate (annual rate ÷ 12), and n is the total months.
What is the difference between interest rate and APR?
The interest rate is the cost of borrowing the principal. APR (Annual Percentage Rate) includes the interest rate plus fees and other costs, giving a more complete picture of the loan cost.
How can I reduce my total interest paid?
Make extra payments toward the principal, choose a shorter loan term, or shop for a lower interest rate. Even one extra payment per year can save thousands.
What is amortization?
Amortization means spreading loan payments over time. Early payments are mostly interest; later payments are mostly principal. The schedule shows this breakdown for every payment.
