## Calendar math

List every installment due date on one month view with rent and utilities. If two BNPL hits land the same week as rent, you created a synthetic payday loan. Price the plan with BNPL true cost & APR calculator.

## One in, one out

Do not open a new plan until the last installment of the previous one clears. If balances blur, consolidate deliberately via Debt consolidation savings calculator or attack with Credit card payoff logic — not with another promo.
