Explanation

This scenario starts with $5,000.00 at 18.99% APR. Paying $100.00/month clears the balance in about 100 months (example payoff date: 5/1/2034).

Month one interest is roughly $79.13 (1.58% per month), so about $20.88 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 $150.00/month, you’d save about 52 months in this setup and reduce total interest.
