Added at the end of each period.

How often interest is added back to the balance.

Calculated locally — nothing is sent anywhere.

The eighth wonder of the world

Compound interest pays you on your interest, so balances accelerate the longer you leave them. Time and consistency usually matter more than a high rate — small monthly contributions started early often beat larger sums started late. Every figure here is computed in your browser, so your numbers stay private. Planning something bigger? Book a call with Digital Heroes.

§ 02 · what you can do

Everything a projection should show.

  • Project a lump-sum investment over any horizon up to 100 years — including fractional years — at a chosen annual rate.
  • Add monthly or yearly contributions and see how consistent saving accelerates growth against interest alone.
  • Compare compounding frequencies — monthly, quarterly or annual — and watch the end balance shift instantly.
  • Read the year-by-year table: start balance, contributions, interest earned and end balance for every year, partial final year included.
  • Export the full schedule as CSV for a spreadsheet or financial model, and read the money-multiple at a glance.
  • Switch currency symbols (USD, EUR, GBP, INR, JPY, AUD, CAD or none) to match your region.
§ 03 · how to use it

Five steps, no manual.

  1. Enter your initial principal — the amount you have today — and an annual interest rate.
  2. Set a time horizon in years and, optionally, a regular contribution per month or per year.
  3. Choose a compounding frequency (monthly, quarterly or annually) that matches your account.
  4. Results update instantly as you type — future value, total contributions, interest earned and the growth chart.
  5. Scroll to the year-by-year table or click Export CSV to save the full schedule.
§ 04 · faq

Frequently asked questions.

Is the Compound Interest Calculator free?
Yes — completely free for everyone. No sign-up, no account and no usage limits.
Is it private? Are my numbers uploaded anywhere?
No upload, ever. The calculator runs entirely in your browser on your own device — your principal, rate and projections never leave your computer.
Does it work offline?
Yes — once the page has loaded, every calculation, the chart and the CSV export run locally, so it keeps working without a connection.
How is compound interest calculated here?
The tool simulates your plan month by month. Contributions are added at the end of each period (monthly contributions every month, yearly contributions at year-end), and interest is applied at each compounding boundary — monthly, quarterly or annually — using the annual rate divided by the number of compounding periods. Yearly rows aggregate those monthly steps, so partial final years are handled correctly.
Can I export the year-by-year schedule?
Yes — click Export CSV above the table to download the full schedule (year, start balance, contributions, interest, end balance) as a CSV file ready for any spreadsheet.
