Snowball? Or Avalanche?

Xeroed's Skier Method outpaces both!

The Snowball Method
EFFECTIVE
Strategy: Pay off your debts in order of smallest balances first, regardless of interest rate, while making minimum payments on the other debts. Once the smallest balance is paid off, attack the next larger one, and so on.
Advantage: Helps you visually get rid of the smaller debts first.
Disadvantage: If your larger debts have higher interest rates, you'll end up paying high interest overall.
The Avalanche Method
MORE EFFECTIVE
Strategy: Target debts with the highest interest rates first, regardless of balance remaining. Once you've paid off the debt with the highest APR, target the next lower one, and so on.
Advantage: Works well if you don't have any expiring promotional 0% APR or low-rate balances, nor plan to take any.
Disadvantage: Expiring promos will remain ignored till their APR shoots up, costing you high interest payment overall.
Xeroed's Skier Method

Notice the promo card (Barclays) starts getting increased payment recommendations around midway before its promo expiration - optimization at work. The exact timing varies based on the mix of factors Xeroed looks at.

Xeroed's Payoff Plan: Focus on the right cards

The problem: With a mix of promotional and standard rate balances (often on the same card!), you need the right strategy to pay them down correctly.

Pay off the promos too early, and you lose out on their interest-free advantage, while incurring more interest on your standard rate debts. Hold off till too late, and you risk the promos expiring and shooting up to their high standard rates.

The solution: Xeroed looks ahead at the expiration dates of your promos, their balances and go-to APRs; the balances and APRs on all your other debts; and your monthly budget, and automatically prepares an optimized payment plan that minimizes the overall interest you'll pay.

Xeroed helps you save on interest, and be debt-free earlier.

The Amex has a lower APR, but no promo. The Barclays has a higher standard APR, but a 0% promo for a year. Xeroed will use this info, and that from the other 2 cards, to compute your best payoff plan.
