With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 433 Percent, This Marks Dealer Pay’s First Time on the List
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., August 18, 2025 – Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today announced that Dealer Pay, a Vehlo brand and a leader in modern dealership payments solutions, is No. 891 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list provides a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment – its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia.
“Earning a place in the top 20 percent of the Inc. 5000 list is a proud milestone for our team and a testament to the dealers we serve,” said Julie Douglas, CEO and founder of Dealer Pay. “We built a payments solutions platform for automotive retail, with the right integrations to work the way dealerships work. That focus helps dealers capture more revenue, operate more efficiently, and stay ahead of change. We’re grateful to our customers for trusting Dealer Pay as their true payments partner.”
This year’s Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and a fluctuating labor market. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

“Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company’s tenacity and clarity of vision,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn’t just weather the storm – they grew through it and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy.”
Inc. will celebrate the honorees at the 2025 Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, taking place October 22–24 in Phoenix, and the top 500 will be listed in the Fall issue of Inc. magazine.
