What to know

  • Weekly costs use 52 payments, monthly costs use 12, quarterly costs use 4 and annual costs use 1.
  • Use the amount actually charged, including any relevant tax or fee.
  • Check cancellation terms before treating an annual cost as avoidable.

How to use the calculator.

  1. Find the amount on a recent receipt or account statement.
  2. Choose the matching payment frequency, then add another subscription if needed.
  3. Compare the annual total with how much you value each service.
  4. Check the renewal, notice and cancellation terms for anything you want to stop.

The calculation behind the result.

Annual cost is payment amount multiplied by payments per year. The average monthly equivalent is the combined annual cost divided by twelve. A monthly equivalent is useful for comparison even when the actual payment leaves once a year.

The starting amounts are illustrative examples. This tool does not retrieve a provider’s current prices or check an account.

Cost and saving are different.

If a subscription is cancelled without a fee and not replaced, its future payments may be avoided. But a minimum term, notice period or replacement service can reduce the amount actually saved. A payment you have already made is not automatically refundable.

Use the total to decide what deserves a closer look. Keep subscriptions you value and investigate the ones you cannot explain.

What the tool leaves out.

The calculator assumes an unchanged price and regular frequency. It does not model introductory discounts, exchange-rate changes, pro-rata refunds or future price rises. A weekly cost uses 52 payments as a standard annual comparison; a particular date range can contain a different count.

The calculations run in the page. No bank connection is required. For an account-specific subscription review, Lodo can help you start from the recurring charges visible through your connected accounts.
