Debt Payoff Planner & Tracker ٤+

Options to Play With

I am not a newbie to the debt snowball, I have a copy on my excel spreadsheet. While that version is useful it is extremely hard to maintain and adjust my priorities. Once you input it it has to stay in that column. That is were the Debt Payoff Planner excels. I can customize what I want as a priority to pay off and see what my outcome will be, all with a slide of my finger. Extra bonus I really like is being able to make educated decisions on what to pay off and how much interest I will end up paying. A huge difference between the excel version of snowball debt to this is the fact that we have several loans that are zero percent interest for X amount of month. Debt Payoff Planner takes that in to consideration. This is a much more convenient app that allows me to adjust as needed and easily track my progress. One small little thing that I wish was changed, my APR is already entered, I would like to just put in how much I paid and call it a day. If I decided to pay a couple dollars more than my minimum I would like to just hit enter and move on. I get it if you have a loan that you can pay more to interest but in my case most of our outstanding debt doesn’t offer that choice. Overall I am extremely over the moon with the layout and ease of use.

Thanks so much for the kind review! We're so glad that this free loan calculator has helped make your life easier. You should be able to get what you want with the extra payment by clicking 'Use Payoff Plan Estimate' to automatically compute the interest, then select 'Enter Details Directly' and change the Total Paid to how much you paid and then click the Calculate button. It's a couple more clicks, but you wouldn't need to calculate the loan manually if you do it this. Feel free to reach out to us at support@stebt.com if you have any questions on how to accomplish this.

It’s given me hope!!!

This app has been just what I needed! I love the options to either enter the payment details manually or use the Payoff Plan Estimate for your monthly entries. It will not automatically credit your payments monthly which is great because it forces you to look at your payment amount each month so that you can see your accomplishments. Also if you have budgeted extra money to pay each month the app will allow you to add it. If you get a surprise gift of money you can take that amount to pay down your debt as a Snowflake option. I’ve tried another app for debt payoff but this app is the best by far. I’m amazed at the choices I have and not having to pay for the pro version. I did create an account but the best part is that you don’t have to provide account numbers, just name the account whatever you like add details and voila your on your way to being debt free! I’m definitely addicted to this app. The COVID-19 pandemic has made me put a lot of things into perspective for the better and forced me to save when I normally wouldn’t. I’m looking forward to having this debt paid off for good in less than three years. 🙏🏾🙌🏾

Meh

My biggest complaint is that there is not a easy way to add an additional payment. From my understanding the only way to do this is to create a one time funding and then pray it applies to the bill you actually applied the payment to. Or you can go in and change the original balance, which is the easiest way but doesn’t give the user the an accurate depiction of how they paid down their debt.

Please just add a simple option that says “make an additional payment” to one of the debts. This could be a drop down or a button on each debt that says pay more. If I just paid an extra $500 to my debt, there should be a quick easy way to record that. I shouldn’t have to plan it in the app, then navigate to track to confirm that I did add funding, then wait until the next scheduled payments for funding to distribute.

I’ve seen other users leave this feedback and the responses from the company never acknowledges that the current process to record extra payments is not simple or straightforward. I do not have the free version, I paid. Now I’m feeling like I didn’t necessarily upgrade from the other debt management app I was using. While I love the planning part of this app. I left behind the ease of recording an extra payment.
