Industry Insight: Gas Stations

Gas stations are unique MCA candidates because they process enormous credit card volumes — often $100,000-$500,000+ per month — but operate on razor-thin fuel margins of just 2-5%. Underwriters must look beyond raw transaction volume to assess whether the business generates enough profit to support MCA repayment.

The most successful gas station MCA applications come from stations with strong convenience store or ancillary revenue (car wash, food service, lottery). This supplementary income typically carries much higher margins and demonstrates a diversified, healthier business. Gas stations with branded fuel agreements and long operating histories receive the best terms.
