Balance Transfer Break-Even Calculator
Compare your current loan with a new offer and see how rate savings, fees and tenure changes affect the transfer.
Know your break-even before you switch.

Break-even timeline
What each number means
Gross interest saving compares remaining interest under the current loan with interest under the new loan.
Net saving subtracts switching costs from the gross saving.
Total-cost break-even accounts for payment differences and the remaining loan balance, so a longer new tenure is not mistaken for a true saving.
