How to use our Personal Loan Repayment Calculator
Our Personal Loan Repayment Calculator helps you estimate your ongoing loan repayments and the total cost of borrowing before you apply. By adjusting the loan amount, loan term and interest rate, you can compare scenarios and choose a repayment level that better fits your budget. It also provides an amortisation view so you can see how each repayment is split between interest and principal over time.
Important note for ASIC compliance: this calculator provides general information only and does not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs. Results are estimates and may not include lender fees, comparison rates, commissions, insurance, redraw features, or changes to your interest rate. Always check a lender’s final quote and loan contract before deciding.
How to complete the form for the best result
1. Loan Amount Required: Enter the total amount you want to borrow in Australian dollars as a whole number (no decimals or commas). Use the amount you actually need, not the maximum you might be approved for, to avoid overpaying interest.
2. Term of Loan: Select the number of years you plan to repay the loan over. A longer term can reduce the monthly repayment, but typically increases the total interest paid over the life of the loan.
3. Interest Rate: Choose an annual interest rate for the simulation. If you have a lender quote, use that rate. If not, test a conservative range to understand best case and worst case outcomes.
4. Calculate: Click the calculate button to generate your results.
How to interpret the results
1. Repayment estimate: Treat the repayment figure as your baseline commitment. Stress-test your budget by increasing the rate or shortening the term to see if repayments remain affordable.
2. Amortisation and graphs: Review the month-by-month amortisation view and charts to understand how the balance reduces and how early repayments often include a higher interest portion, shifting toward more principal over time.
3. Compare scenarios: Re-run the calculator with different terms and rates to balance affordability (cash flow) against total interest (overall cost).
