APR stands for Annual Percentage Rate and is a very important term when it comes to comparing credit cards, loans and mortgages because it tells you how much you are paying to have the credit facility.

The world of personal finance is littered with complicated technical terms and abbreviations like APR. It’s not surprising that most people don’t understand what half of these terms mean.

Here at compareandsave.com, we believe that if you understand more of the terms used when talking about financial products, you will feel more in control of the products and services you choose to spend your money on.

This is why we have created our very own compareandsave.com glossary.

The glossary in itself can be used like a dictionary so you can search for the term you are having trouble understanding.

Additionally, complicated terms will be underlined in articles, guides and other items. If you click on these underlined terms, you will be sent to the relevant page containing the meaning of the word within the glossary.

If you have any suggestions for terms you would like to see defined, feel free to contact us to let us know and we will see what we can do.
