How consolidation works

Three simple steps from many payments to one.

1

Add up what you owe

List your card balances and the rates you’re paying to see the full picture in one place.

2

Compare one loan

A personal loan can replace several balances with a single fixed payment — often at a lower rate.

3

Check your real rate

Pre-qualify to see personalized rates with no impact to your credit score, then decide if it’s worth it.

Common questions

What is credit card consolidation?

It means combining multiple credit card balances into a single new loan or line of credit — so you make one payment instead of several, ideally at a lower interest rate.

Will checking my rate hurt my credit score?

Pre-qualifying to see estimated personal loan rates uses a soft credit check, which doesn’t affect your credit score. A hard inquiry only happens if you formally apply with a lender.

How accurate is this calculator?

It’s an estimate based on the balances and rates you enter and equal monthly payments over the timeline you pick. Your actual rate and savings depend on your credit profile and the lender you choose.
