What does applying for a second MCA involve?

- We call to agree the amount before the file goes out.
- You choose the offer whose combined debit your bank deposits can carry, then sign.
What else should you consider?
Skip it when the first debit already takes a heavy share of deposits. Consolidating first, or waiting until the first advance is mostly repaid, leaves more room. For a gap that repeats every month, a line of credit costs less than stacking advances.
