How this is calculated
Starting balance £3,147.95 at 26.49% APR. The monthly interest rate is the APR divided by 12, so £69.49 of interest is charged on the first month's balance.
Each month, interest is rounded to the nearest penny before it is added to the balance. Your payment is then applied, and the final payment is reduced to clear the remaining balance exactly.
The baseline is the minimum payment of £333.07 a month. "Interest saved" is the difference between the total interest paid at the minimum and the total interest paid at your chosen amount.
This is an estimate for planning, not a guarantee. Your card's actual interest and minimum payment can vary, so check your statement before relying on these figures.
