MCA debt in Kansas
Kansas has about 273,000 small businesses, which employ nearly half of the state's private workforce, according to the SBA Office of Advocacy's 2025 profile. Health care, restaurants, manufacturing and construction lead, and agricultural businesses face seasonal revenue that fixed daily debits don't fit.
One of New York's best-known MCA decisions, LG Funding v. United Senior Properties of Olathe (2020), involved a Kansas business. The court held that whether an MCA is really a loan depends on its reconciliation clause, its term and the funder's recourse in bankruptcy.
Kansas MCA law: what actually protects you
Commercial Financing Disclosure Act (2024)
Since July 1, 2024, providers of business loans, open-end credit and accounts-receivable purchases, including MCAs, of $500,000 or less must disclose the total funds provided, the amount disbursed, total repayment, total cost, the payment schedule and any prepayment terms. No APR is required. Banks and providers doing five or fewer Kansas deals a year are exempt. The Attorney General enforces it; there is no private lawsuit right.
Broker rules
Kansas brokers may not charge advance fees beyond the actual services needed to arrange the application, and may not make false or misleading statements.
Usury and confessions of judgment
Kansas's 15% general rate cap does not apply to business or agricultural transactions (K.S.A. 16-207), so usury arguments under Kansas law are limited. Confessions of judgment are void in Kansas consumer credit transactions; for business contracts, the New York rules most MCAs choose usually control.
If you're behind on an MCA in Kansas
- Find your disclosure for any MCA signed since July 2024 and compare total repayment with what you've paid.
- Calculate the APR yourself. See our factor rate to APR guide.
- Agricultural businesses: see our agriculture page on matching payments to harvest cycles.
- Use reconciliation when revenue drops. See the reconciliation clause guide.
