With fewer bills to pay, juggling debt becomes simpler. See how you can consolidate debt into one monthly payment that fits your budget. Whether you do it with a personal loan, a balance transfer credit card or by using home equity, debt consolidation could help you save money and pay down debt faster.1
Benefits of Debt Consolidation1
Rolling all your bills into one can make debt easier to manage and may help save you money.1 Depending on details like the interest rate and repayment rules of your new loan, debt consolidation could help you:
- Find a lower rate. Consolidate debt at a lower interest rate or get a low rate on a credit card balance transfer to save on interest.
- Pay fewer bills each month. Combine multiple debts into one balance for fewer bills to juggle.
- Shorten your repayment term. Save money by putting less toward interest and paying down the principal balance sooner.
- Set a budget. Build a money plan around your bills and expenses.
- Work on your credit score. Making payments on time and avoiding taking on more debt are two things credit reporting agencies look at to determine credit scores.

Debt Consolidation Loan FAQs
Get answers to your questions about debt consolidation loans
Debt consolidation rolls multiple debts, usually high-interest debts like credit card bills, into a single payment. Having fewer payments can make debt easier to manage and, if you can also get a lower interest rate, you can reduce your total debt amount and potentially pay it off faster.
Debt consolidation can be a viable option if you are struggling with high-interest debts or if you find it difficult to manage your monthly payments. If you have multiple debts with varying interest rates, consolidating them into a single loan with a lower interest rate can help reduce the amount of interest you pay over time. It can also simplify your finances by making it easier to keep track of your payments and reduce the risk of missing a payment. Learn more about how debt consolidation works and when to consolidate.
Debt consolidation can be straightforward and easily undertaken to make your total debt amount manageable. Having multiple high-interest debts means juggling multiple interest rates, due dates, and, potentially, penalties.
If you can qualify for a loan or credit card, for example, that you can transfer your debts to, you could simplify paying off debt.
