Credit Calculator

Calculate monthly payment and total cost for annuity or differentiated credit.

  • What is a credit loan?

    A credit loan (or personal loan) is borrowed money that you repay over time with interest. Unlike a mortgage, it's typically unsecured (no collateral required) and can be used for any purpose. You repay the loan in monthly installments over the agreed term. Each payment covers both interest and a portion of the principal.

  • Annuity vs differentiated payments

    Annuity: equal payments throughout the term — easy to budget, but total interest is higher. The interest share is large at first and shrinks over time. Differentiated: fixed principal part each month, so payments decrease as the balance falls. Lower total overpayment, but early payments are noticeably larger.

  • How is the payment calculated?

    For annuity, the payment is fixed and calculated so that the loan is fully repaid by the end of the term.

    Annuity: Payment = Principal × r / (1 − (1 + r)^−n) where r = annual rate / 12, n = term in months

    For differentiated payments, the principal part is constant (loan ÷ months) and the interest decreases each month as the balance shrinks.

    Differentiated: Payment_i = Principal/n + (Principal − Principal/n × (i−1)) × r where r = annual rate / 12, n = term in months

  • What is the overpayment?

    Overpayment is the total interest paid over the life of the loan — the difference between the total amount paid and the original loan amount. Differentiated payments result in lower total overpayment compared to annuity, especially for longer terms.
