extra payments

Money beyond salary

Extra payments are amounts paid beyond what's regularly scheduled or required, typically applied to loans or debts.

Making extra payments on a mortgage reduces the principal faster and shortens the loan term: We put our tax refund toward extra payments on the house.

The phrase also applies to additional installments on any recurring obligation.
