How savings growth is calculated
This calculator adds your monthly deposits to an initial amount and grows the balance with the annual rate you enter. Compound interest earns interest on past interest; simple interest does not. You can also apply an interest tax to estimate the after-tax amount.
Practical guide
Getting the most from the savings calculator
Regular deposits vs a lump sum
A one-time deposit grows only on itself, while adding a fixed amount every month keeps feeding the balance and multiplies the effect of compounding. Try setting the monthly deposit to zero to see a pure lump-sum result, then add a monthly amount to compare.
Why compounding frequency matters
The more often interest is added, the more you earn, because each new interest amount starts earning interest sooner. Monthly compounding usually beats annual compounding at the same nominal rate, though the difference is small at low rates.
Taxes and real returns
Interest is often taxable, so the after-tax figure is what actually lands in your account. This tool estimates it with a flat rate; real rules can include allowances, tiers and timing that vary by country, so treat the result as a planning estimate.
Savings growth formulas
Compound interest: FV = P · (1 + r/n)^(n·t) (r = annual rate, n = periods/year, t = years)
Regular deposits: the future value of a fixed monthly deposit is added on top of the starting balance
After tax: interest earned × (1 − tax rate) is what you keep
How this calculator works
CalcBloom compounds your balance period by period in your browser, adds any regular deposit, and applies your interest-tax rate to the interest earned. It is an estimate: real accounts differ in compounding frequency, tax allowances, tiered rates and timing. Nothing you enter leaves your device.
