RESULT
Enter your numbers
We’ll compare total financing cost with 0% against taking the rebate and financing the reduced price.
Simplified comparison assumes the full purchase price is financed, ignores taxes/fees, and treats the rebate as an immediate price reduction. Always compare the actual contract terms.

GUIDES THAT ANSWER MONEY QUESTIONS
Start with the decision, not the jargon.
Is 0% financing really better than a rebate?
Sometimes yes. Sometimes the rebate plus a low-rate loan wins. The answer depends on purchase price, rebate size, term, and the rate you could otherwise qualify for.

Read the card guide →How long until refinancing pays for itself?
A lower payment is not enough. Compare closing costs against monthly savings to find your break-even point.
