Savings Calculator
Use our calculator to work out how much savings you will accumulate by a set time.
How do I calculate how much I can save a month?
Working out how much you can regularly save can be confusing for many households as their income and expenses can fluctuate and with many payments coming in and out it is difficult to know how much money is realistically leftover at the end of the month. To assist with this you can use budget tracking tools where you can categorise all of your spending categories and your income – the system will then be able to establish your current net leftover cash flow each month. (or deficit if you’ve been spending more than you earn!)
From there you can look at your spending and see if there is any unnecessary spending you can remove and then calculate a finalised savings amount. It’s recommended to put that savings away the day you’re paid as this will stop you accidentally spending the funds.
If you come up with a random lump sum payment from a windfall you can also add this into your savings pool or on an existing loan.
