Why we built this.
Most financial calculators online are buried in popups, behind email walls, or wrapped in advertising for a service nobody asked for. We built DebtToolbox the way calculators should work: open the page, type your numbers, get the answer. That's it.
Every calculator on this site uses the same formulas as federal regulators (CFPB, SEC, FHFA, IRS) and major US banks. We verified each one against established calculators from Bankrate, NerdWallet, and the SEC's own Investor.gov tool. Where there are sources, we link them. Where there aren't, we explain the math.
The site is free. It will always be free. We make money from a few unobtrusive ads — never popups, never tracking beyond what the ad networks themselves do. Your numbers stay in your browser; nothing gets sent to a server.
