FAQ
What is compound interest?
Compound interest means that interest is calculated not only on the initial capital, but also on the interest accumulated over time. This is why long time horizons can have a strong impact on the final result.
Can I include monthly contributions?
Yes. Enter a monthly contribution to estimate how regular investing may change the final balance compared with a one-time investment.
Is the annual return guaranteed?
No. The annual return is only an assumption used for the calculation. Real investments can go up or down, and past performance does not guarantee future results.
Does this calculator send my data anywhere?
No. The calculation runs in your browser. Values may be saved locally on your device to restore the last scenario, but they are not sent to an external server.
