DebtWise vs Payoff

DebtWise helps you build a realistic, personalized debt payoff plan — and actually stick to it. Most debt apps force you into Avalanche (highest interest first) or Snowball (smallest balance first). DebtWise gives you a third option: your own order. CUSTOM PAYOFF ORDER Drag your debts into any sequence that makes sense for your life. Pay off the family loan first. Tackle the one causing you the most stress. DebtWise recalculates your freedom date instantly every time you reorder — no re-entering data, no spreadsheet fiddling. NEVER MISS A PAYMENT Get a local reminder 3 days and 1 day before each debt's due date. Tap "Mark as Paid" when you've paid — the app advances the due date and starts building your payment history. All reminders are scheduled on-device. No server, no account. AVALANCHE & SNOWBALL TOO Both classic strategies are built in. With Pro, compare them side by side: see exactly how much interest each one saves and which gets you debt-free fastest. CASCADE EFFECT When a debt is paid off, its minimum payment automatically rolls into the next one — accelerating your payoff without any extra effort. Included with Pro. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Watch your freedom date get closer. Unlock milestones as you pay down each debt. See your total interest shrinking month by month. WORKS OFFLINE, IN 9 LANGUAGES Fully usable with no internet connection. Available in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese. FREE TO START Track unlimited debts, free forever — reminders, milestones, and data export included. Upgrade to Pro for your own custom payoff order, cascade payments, side-by-side strategy comparison, the cash-flow-first strategy, and data import. Pro is a yearly plan or a one-time purchase. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No cloud sync. No ads. Your debts live only on your device and leave it only if you export or share them. Anonymous usage stats (which features are used, when something breaks) never include your debts or anything that identifies you.

Pay off what you owe, one month at a time. Payoff turns your debts into a plan you can actually follow: what to pay, on which debt, this month. Tick each one off as you pay it, and watch the debt-free date come closer. THIS MONTH'S PLAN Every month, Payoff works out exactly what to put on each debt. Log a payment in two taps — the minimum, the planned amount, or the lot — and the plan updates itself. SEE WHAT YOU'RE SAVING Your plan against paying minimums only, side by side: the years and the interest you avoid. Drag the extra-payment slider to see what another $50 a month would do. EVERY STRATEGY, COMPARED Avalanche, Snowball, Hybrid, Cash-flow first and Promo deadline — for 0% and intro rates. Best plan for me runs all of them on your actual debts and tells you which wins, and why. PROGRESS WORTH WATCHING How much you've paid off, your debt-free countdown, whether you're ahead of plan, and every payment you've logged. Each debt gets its own progress bar. NEVER MISS A DUE DATE Reminders a few days before each debt is due, at a time you pick. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN A widget with your debt-free countdown, so your progress is there without opening the app. WORTH SHARING Turn your debt-free date into a card for Stories, or celebrate a debt you've cleared. Hide the amounts if you'd rather not show the numbers. YOURS, AND PRIVATE No account, no ads, no analytics. Your debts never leave your phone.
