How will extra payments affect my loan?

Additional Considerations for Making Extra Payments on a Loan

  • To stay on track with extra loan payments, set up an automatic funds transfer for your desired date each month.
  • Be realistic with your financial planning and keep additional payment amounts on track with your current income and other expenses.
  • You may need to adjust your payment schedule based on job and life changes, but these minor adjustments can still help you meet your financial goals.

How Much Should I Pay?

Are you interested in lowering your debts or getting rid of them altogether? Paying off a loan early can significantly impact how much you can save in interest and frees up money to pay other bills, allowing you to increase your savings and work toward new financial goals. Setting aside a small amount each month for an extra payment can pay off for you in the long run, especially when you see how much you can save.

While any additional amount can make a difference, our extra payments calculator gives you an estimated view of how different monthly amounts will impact your repayment period.1 Any extra payments on a loan should ultimately be determined by your income, your financial goals, and your ability to continue paying for essentials, such as housing and food.
