This is the current or total amount of credit card debt that you'd like to pay off.
Credit Card Interest Rate (%)
This is the annual interest rate charged by your credit card company on the outstanding balance you're keeping on the card each month.
New Charges ($ / Month)
This credit card payoff calculator allows you to continue to make new monthly charges to your account. If you're still planning on using your credit card, then enter the average amount you think you'll charge to the card each month.
Current Monthly Payment ($ / Month)

Credit Card Payoff Target (Months)
This is the number of months by which you'd like to have your credit card balance, as well as new charges, paid off. This payoff target will be used to calculate your monthly payoff amount.
Credit Card Payoff Payment ($ / Month)
This is how much you have to pay each month to your credit card company to eliminate your balance and new charges using the number of months indicated in the credit card payoff target previously supplied.
Time Remaining Current Payment (Months)
This is the time that it will take to pay off your credit card balance using the current monthly payment indicated earlier. If there is an error in this portion of the calculator, this indicates that you're not paying enough each month to pay off your balance. In fact, an error indicates the balance may be growing.
