Frequently Asked Questions
What is compound interest?
Compound interest is interest earned on both your original money and on the interest already added. Over time this snowball effect makes savings grow faster and faster.
How often does this calculator compound?
It compounds monthly, which matches most savings and investment accounts. Interest is added each month, and your monthly contribution is added at the time you choose.
Does the timing of contributions matter?
A little. Contributing at the beginning of the month means each deposit earns interest one month sooner, so the final balance is slightly higher than contributing at the end.
Is the result guaranteed?
No. It assumes a steady interest rate the whole time. Real returns go up and down, so treat the figure as an estimate to compare options, not a promise.
Is my information sent anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Your numbers never leave your computer and it works offline once loaded.
Can I use it for any currency?
Yes. The math is the same in any currency. Amounts show a dollar sign, but the future value and totals are correct whatever you save in.
