How it works

  1. Enter each loan offer's rate and term.
  2. Enter the loan amount.
  3. Compare monthly payment and total interest across offers.

The method

Standard amortization is used to calculate monthly payment and total interest for each offer, letting you compare the full cost, not just the monthly number.

FAQ

Why compare total interest instead of just the monthly payment?

A lower monthly payment often means a longer term, which can mean paying more total interest overall — comparing both numbers together avoids picking the offer that looks cheaper month-to-month but costs more in the end.

Does this account for origination fees?

This compares rate, term, and resulting interest cost; add any origination or closing fees separately when comparing the true total cost of each offer.

Can I compare more than two loan offers?

Yes — add as many offers as you're evaluating to compare them side by side.
