How to calculate your mobile loan

Mobile loan is a popular option for Thais who want to buy a new smartphone without paying a lot of money. This calculator supports 3. The main forms used in Thailand: 0% campaign, loan through mobile operators, and credit card loan.

1. Campaign 0% (no interest)

The simplest formula:

  • Repayment. = Price of the phone - down payment.
  • - You're a witch. = Repayment ÷ Months

The 0% campaign is available at Apple Store, Samsung Store, mobile operators (AIS, True, DTAC), supermarkets and some bank credit cards during the promotion period.

2. Mobile phone loan (AIS/True/Dtac)

Mobile operators offer special price when subscribing to monthly packages. What to pay has 2 parts:

  • Massager. = (mobile price − down payment) ÷ number of months (usually 0%)
  • Package Costs = Monthly fees for the duration of the contract.
  • Real monthly payments. = Massager + Package

3. Credit card payments (with interest).

The flat rate formula used by the Thai banks:

  • Repayment. = Price of the phone - down payment.
  • Total Interest = Repayment x Interest per month x Months
  • - You're a witch. = (payment + total interest) ÷ number of months

Calculation example

iPhone loan price 45,900 baht through credit card 10 month interest 0.8% per month:

  • Repayment: 45,900 baht
  • Total interest: 45,900 × 0.8% × 10 = 3,672 baht
  • Total repayment: 45,900 + 3,672 = 49,572 baht
  • Draw: 49,572 ÷ 10 = 4,957.20 baht/month

The interest rate on mobile phones in Thailand is 2026.

  • Campaign 0%: No interest (Apple Store, Samsung, Mobile)
  • Credit card: 0.7-0.9% per month (approximately 8-10% per year)
  • Personal credit: 1-2% per month (approximately 12-25% per year)

The phone loan trick.

  • Always choose the 0% campaign first because it pays no interest.
  • Compare cash price to installment price — some stores add 0% interest compensation to the machine price.
  • Mobile massages combined with other debt burden should not exceed 40% of income.
  • If you're paying through a mobile company, check the contract-wide package, it might be more expensive than buying a blank.
  • Credit card installments 0%, the longest, the best value. But if there is interest Short installments, pay less
