The math, shown plainly
How this estimate works
Monthly equivalent
Monthly plans + (annual plans ÷ 12)
Longer views
Annual total = monthly equivalent × 12. Five-year total = monthly equivalent × 60. The calculator assumes prices and plans stay unchanged so you can compare consistent scenarios.
Worked example
If monthly plans total $65 and annual plans total $120, the annual plans add $10 per month. The combined monthly equivalent is $75, the annual estimate is $900, and the five-year estimate is $4,500. Canceling $20 per month would reduce that straight-line five-year estimate by $1,200.
What this calculator does not know
It cannot predict price increases, taxes, promotional periods, family-plan changes, foreign transaction fees, or services you add later. It also does not decide which plan is valuable to you. A subscription used every day may be a better fit than a cheaper one you never use.
Use the answer as a review list
- Open two or three months of card and bank activity.
- Write down every recurring charge, including app-store billing.
- Check annual renewals in email receipts and account settings.
- Mark each plan as keep, compare, pause, or cancel.
- Confirm cancellation inside the service and save the confirmation.
