Paycheck 1: rent comes out of this one. Rent · due Tue Oct 27.
Sample household starts with its $100 cushion in checking.
After this paycheck, Visa has about $8,491 left.
How this works
- Each paycheck covers the bills and minimums due before the next payday and keeps the cushion. The rest goes to debt.
- The extra goes to the highest rate first, then the next one once that's paid off.
- The sample household starts with its cushion already in checking. Its bills fall a few days after its paydays.
- Interest is added monthly. No new charges, fees, or rate changes.
Paycheck 4 depends on your real balances. Croft works it out again every payday, so you don't have to.
$11.99 a month, about $5.53 a paycheck if you're paid every two weeks. Or $89 a year, about $3.42 a paycheck. 21 days free, no card.
