How the avalanche works Minimum payments are made on all active debts. The extra payment is directed to the highest-interest remaining debt. When that debt is paid off, its minimum payment is rolled into the amount attacking the next debt.

How the Debt Avalanche Calculator Works

The debt avalanche method prioritizes debts by interest rate rather than balance size. The highest interest rate is attacked first while minimum payments continue on the other debts.

Monthly Interest = Remaining Balance × (Annual Rate ÷ 100 ÷ 12)

When the highest-interest debt reaches zero, its former minimum payment becomes part of the payment directed at the next highest-interest debt. This continues until all listed debts are paid.

This calculator is a planning estimate. Actual creditor calculations can differ because of daily interest, fees, payment timing, new charges and account-specific terms.
