Comment on this answer

There are some well-respected financial advisors who recommend paying off the lower balance first (Card 2), while making minimum payments on other accounts (Card 1). This has the psychological benefit of both quickly reducing debt and reducing the number of outstanding accounts. Then, the money that was being paid to Card 2 can be added to that being applied to Card 1. This approach is referred to as the "debt snowball" because the amounts that can be applied to the larger debt keep getting bigger as the smaller debts are paid.
