The month a 0% promo ends is split by the day: promo rate up to the date, the card's own rate from then on. That is how Payoff Lab arrives at the date you are actually done. It runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

For ordinary debts, avalanche (highest APR first) costs the least in interest. With a 0% promo card neither classic rule is guaranteed cheapest, because avalanche ignores the promo card until its rate is real, which can cost you when the promo ends. That is why both strategies are always computed on your numbers with the dollar difference shown. Pick the cheaper one, or the one that keeps you going. The worst strategy is minimum payments only.
Mainly because promo expiry dates are modelled. If you have a 0% intro card, a tool that ignores the expiry is flattering you. The interest model is also deliberately conservative: daily periodic rate on each month's opening balance, posted monthly. That can run a little higher than your card's average-daily-balance billing, and by design never lower.
It never leaves your device. The planner runs entirely in your browser, and your inputs are saved only to this browser's local storage so they are there when you come back. Your debt figures never reach our server; the privacy page lists everything that does.
No. It is arithmetic on the numbers you enter, using standard daily-interest formulas. Your lender's exact posting rules differ slightly, and the tool cannot see fees, rate changes, or new spending. For hardship options such as settlements or management plans, talk to a nonprofit credit counselor.
