Debt payoff plan

Sumwright models every payoff path across your cards and loans and shows you the fastest, cheapest way out — then tells you exactly what to put where each month. You make the payments; Sumwright does the math.

Avalanche vs. snowball

  • Avalanche — target your highest-APR balance first. Mathematically the cheapest: it minimizes the interest you pay.
  • Snowball — target your smallest balance first for a quick, motivating win.

Pick the strategy that suits you and Sumwright shows your debt-free date, the interest you avoid, and how many months sooner you finish versus paying minimums.

Set it up

1

Open your payoff plan

iPhone & Android
Go to the Strategy tab to see your debts and payoff plan.
Mac & Windows
Open Debt Plan in the sidebar.
2

Check your balances and APRs

Sumwright picks up card balances from your linked accounts. Confirm the APR on each — you can edit it directly, and importing a statement can read the purchase APR for you.

3

Choose a strategy and your monthly amount

Select avalanche or snowball and tell Sumwright how much you can put toward debt each month.

4

Follow the plan

Sumwright lays out exactly what to pay on each balance this month. Make those payments with your bank; as they clear, your progress and debt-free date update.

Sumwright plans; you pay. There’s no payment rail — Sumwright doesn’t move money or pay a card for you. It builds the plan and tracks your progress from your real transactions.
