Compound interest calculator

Thinking of taking out a loan that could make all the difference in your life? When you’re planning for a brighter tomorrow and doing the sums that come with it, it’s important to include the interest factor, which often isn’t quite as simple as it seems.

Compound interest is interest charged on both the principal loan amount and the accumulated interest that remains to be paid on it. This means that the borrower pays interest on interest, so the longer the interest compounds, the greater the repayment.

With 1Life’s payable compound interest calculator, you can work out the cost of your monthly repayments, based on the principal loan amount plus the interest that will be charged over the contract period.
