About these calculators

Are they free?

Yes — all three are free to use, with no sign-up, no email required, and nothing you enter is sent anywhere. Every calculation runs in your own browser.

Which one should I start with?

If you already have a bond, start with the payoff calculator — it shows the biggest wins. If you're still shopping, start with affordability, then check transfer costs before you make an offer.

How accurate are they?

The maths uses standard reducing-balance amortisation, the same method banks use, and the transfer duty figures come straight from the published SARS brackets. They're planning tools, though — your bank's final figures may differ.

Is this financial advice?

No. These are illustrative calculators to help you understand the numbers. For advice specific to your situation, speak to your bank, bond originator, or a qualified financial adviser.
