A merchant cash advance (MCA) provides upfront business funding repaid through a small percentage of your daily card takings. Unlike a loan, there are no fixed monthly repayments - you pay more when business is booming and less during quieter periods. Ideal for retail, hospitality, and any business with consistent card revenue.
