Payday Loan APR Calculator

Payday Loan APR: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers loan amount (currency). Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.

Payday Loan APR Calculator is a planned calculator in the finance section of Super Calculator, covering other lending.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: loan amount (currency), fee (currency), term (days) and number of rollovers.

Outputs: APR (%), total fees paid (currency), total repaid (currency) and effective cost per rollover (currency).

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: APR = (fee / principal) * (365 / term in days) * 100. A flat fee on a two-week term annualizes to a three-figure APR, which is the arithmetic the product’s marketing avoids. Rollovers compound the fee without reducing principal.
