outstanding balance
Debt still owed
An outstanding balance is the amount still owed on a debt or account—what remains unpaid after any partial payments: The outstanding balance on my credit card is $2,400.
The term appears in billing statements, loan documents, and collection notices.
Interest typically accrues on the outstanding balance until it's paid in full.
