How to Use This Calculator

The calculator will show you the minimum payment due, interest charges, and the total amount you'll pay if you choose to pay the minimum or the full balance.

Formula Used

The iStore card calculator uses the following formulas to calculate your payment options and interest charges:

Minimum Payment = Current Balance × Minimum Payment Percentage Interest Charges = Current Balance × (Interest Rate / 100) × Days in Billing Cycle / 365 Total Payment = Current Balance + Interest Charges

Where:

Current Balance - Your current iStore card balance
Minimum Payment Percentage - The minimum percentage of your balance you must pay (typically 3%)
Interest Rate - The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) for your iStore card
Days in Billing Cycle - The number of days in your billing cycle (typically 30 days)

Worked Example

Let's look at an example to see how the iStore card calculator works. Suppose you have an iStore card balance of $1,500, an interest rate of 18% APR, and you're paying the minimum payment.

Current Balance: $1,500
Minimum Payment Percentage: 3%
Interest Rate: 18%
Days in Billing Cycle: 30

Using the formulas:

Minimum Payment = $1,500 × 0.03 = $45 Interest Charges = $1,500 × (0.18 / 100) × (30 / 365) ≈ $2.37 Total Payment = $1,500 + $2.37 = $1,502.37

In this example, the minimum payment due is $45, and the total amount you'll pay if you choose to pay the minimum is $1,502.37.

Interpreting Results

Interpreting the results from the iStore card calculator is straightforward. The calculator provides you with:

Minimum Payment Due: The smallest amount you must pay to avoid penalties.
Interest Charges: The interest you'll accrue if you don't pay the full balance.
Total Payment: The total amount you'll pay if you choose to pay the minimum or the full balance.

Use these results to make informed decisions about your iStore card payments. If possible, pay the full balance to avoid interest charges and reduce your overall debt.

Remember, the iStore card calculator provides estimates based on the information you provide. For exact figures, always refer to your iStore card statement.
