About this plugin
Loan Calculator adds a loan calculator with sliders to your WordPress site, so visitors can work out their loan repayments without leaving the page. Visitors drag the sliders to choose the loan amount and the term, pick their credit rating, and instantly see the repayment amount, the interest and the total they would pay. An optional “Apply Now” button sends them on to your application page. You can add this loan calculator with the Loan Calculator block in the block editor or with a shortcode.
Loan calculator features
