About DebtSnowball

We believe getting out of debt shouldn't require a finance degree, a $200 software subscription, or a complicated spreadsheet you have to babysit every month.

Why we built this

The debt snowball method has been around for decades, popularized by authors like Dave Ramsey. It works because it's simple: smallest balance first, roll payments forward, repeat. But the spreadsheets floating around the internet are either broken, locked behind email walls, or use formulas only an accountant would love.

We built DebtSnowball to make it instant. No signup. No email. Plug your debts in, see your debt-free date in seconds, and walk away with a real plan you can act on tomorrow morning.

How we keep it free

The core calculator will always be free. We offer a Pro tier ($4.99/month) for people who want extra firepower: avalanche comparison, saved scenarios, PDF exports, lump-sum planners, and email reminders. That's what pays the bills and keeps the lights on.

Not financial advice

DebtSnowball is an educational calculator. It uses standard interest formulas and the well-known snowball ordering. For specific decisions about debt consolidation, balance transfers, or bankruptcy, please talk to a licensed financial professional or nonprofit credit counselor.
