Explanation

This scenario starts with $3,000.00 at 12.99% APR. Paying $50.00/month clears the balance in about 98 months (example payoff date: 3/1/2034).

Month one interest is roughly $32.48 (1.08% per month), so about $17.53 goes to principal right away.

Early on, interest consumes a large share of the payment, so progress feels slow. The good news: as the balance drops, interest drops too, and more of each payment goes toward principal.

If you increased the payment by $50 to $100.00/month, you’d save about 61 months in this setup and reduce total interest.
