GRAPEVINE, Texas – Car Capital, an automotive FinTech company, has closed a $20 millioncredit line with Medalist Partners. This transaction gives Car Capital access to capital to expand their business, fund deals, and ultimately get consumers into cars. Car Capital's proprietary, web-based platform, Dealer Electronic Auto Loan System (DEALSSM) allows franchise and independent dealers to make 24/7 immediate auto loan decisions for 100% of their customers.
We are planning to significantly expand our dealer network and grow our revenue with this additional capital.

We are planning to significantly expand our dealer network and grow our revenue with this additional capital," said Justin Tisler, Co-founder and CEO at Car Capital. "Medalist has been an invaluable partner, first through their contribution to our Series A funding round, and now with this debt deal. We look forward to further building on our relationship with Medalist."
"We're excited to partner with Car Capital to provide their inaugural debt financing following a successful Series A equity round," said John Slonieski, Director of Private Credit and Partner at Medalist Partners.
