Three strategies

One honest comparison, in rands and cents.

Most people pick a payoff method by feel. Tally shows you the real trade-off between each option for your debts.

Avalanche

Target the highest interest rate first. Mathematically the cheapest path — saves the most on interest.

e.g. save R14,600 vs minimums only

Lowest cost

Snowball

Knock out the smallest balance first. Wins on motivation through quick, visible progress.

e.g. clear first account in 4 months

Best motivation

Consolidation

See if one loan at a lower rate would actually save money once fees and term are counted.

e.g. R2,400 → R1,860/mo

How it works

Three quiet steps to a plan you'll actually follow.

  1. 01

    List your debts

    Balance, minimum payment, interest rate. Nothing leaves your browser.

  2. 02

    Compare strategies

    See avalanche, snowball and consolidation side-by-side in ZAR.

  3. 03

    Follow your plan

    Track your debt-free date and interest saved as you pay down.

"I thought consolidation was the answer. DAP showed me that avalanche would clear my accounts eleven months sooner — and save me almost R19,000. It made the maths feel like mine."

Common questions

Things people ask us first.

Is my financial information private?

Yes. Every calculation runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, and no account is required.

Does Debt Advisory Partner replace a registered debt counsellor?

No. Debt Advisory Partner is educational and helps you understand your options. If you're already over-indebted, speak to an NCR-registered debt counsellor — we recommend it.

Do the calculations account for South African credit rules?

We model monthly compounding, minimum-payment rules and consolidation trade-offs common to South African credit products. It's not a substitute for regulated advice.

Can I use Debt Advisory Partner offline?

Once the page has loaded, calculations continue to run locally. Your device is the only place your numbers live.

Will there be a paid plan?

Yes. We plan to offer a paid plan in the future, but the core debt tool will remain free.

Ready to see your debt-free date?

Free, private, and built specifically for South African borrowers. No sign-up, no bank connection, no upsell.
