CalcuLoan

Description

CalcuLoan adds a modern conversational loan repayment calculator to WordPress. Site owners can configure loan types, currencies, amount presets, duration presets, interest settings, repayment schedules, fees, messages, and proceed actions from a WordPress admin dashboard.

Use the [calculoan] shortcode on any page or post to display the frontend loan assistant.

CalcuLoan records calculator activity locally in WordPress so administrators can review total calculations, proceed clicks, average requested loan amount, conversion rate, and recent calculations. No external tracking or automatic data collection is performed by the plugin.

Privacy

CalcuLoan stores calculator activity locally in the WordPress database when visitors use the calculator. Stored calculation data can include selected loan type, requested amount, selected duration, repayment frequency, calculated repayment values, an anonymized IP hash, and proceed-click status.

If lead capture is enabled in a compatible Pro extension, submitted lead details may be stored locally in the WordPress database. The free plugin does not send this data to external services.

CalcuLoan does not automatically send personal data to third-party services.

Third-party services

The free plugin does not call external APIs for calculator operation, analytics, tracking, or licensing. Admin upgrade links may direct administrators to the author’s website only when clicked manually.

Source code notes

The package includes readable, unminified CSS and JavaScript files. No build step is required to use the plugin.
