How to Use the Credit Card Discount Calculator
This calculator determines your savings with a credit card discount. Follow these steps:
- Enter Purchase Amount: Input the original price of the item.
- Enter Discount Percentage: Input the discount percentage offered by your credit card.

Credit Card Discount Formula
The calculator uses the following formulas:
- Discount Amount = (Purchase Amount * Discount Percentage) / 100
- Final Price = Purchase Amount – Discount Amount + Sales Tax (if applicable)
- Sales Tax = (Purchase Amount * Sales Tax Percentage) / 100
For example, let’s say you buy a $100 item with a 10% credit card discount and a 5% sales tax:
- Discount Amount = ($100 * 10) / 100 = $10
- Sales Tax = ($100 * 5) / 100 = $5
- Final Price = $100 – $10 + $5 = $95
