Frequently asked questions
- Snowball vs. avalanche — which saves more money?
- The avalanche method (highest APR first) saves more interest. The snowball (smallest balance first) provides faster psychological wins. Pick whichever keeps you motivated.
- What happens when Debt 1 is paid off?
- Its minimum payment is added to Debt 2's payment, accelerating payoff. This is the 'snowball' effect.
