Amortization is the systematic repayment of a loan over time through fixed periodic payments. Each payment is split between interest and principal. In the early months, a larger share goes toward interest; in later months, more goes toward principal.
An amortization schedule is a detailed table showing each payment’s breakdown into principal and interest, along with remaining balance. Understanding amortization helps borrowers make informed decisions about prepayments, balance transfers, and refinancing.
Understanding amortization helps borrowers see how repayments are structured and identify the best time for prepayments. Early prepayments have a much larger impact on total interest.
