PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
This is only a summary and does not contain all the information that may be important to you. You should read the more detailed information contained later or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including the financial information and statements with notes. You are urged to read this prospectus in its entirety.
 
Please note that, throughout this prospectus, the words “DCAP Group,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to DCAP Group, Inc. and not to any of the selling securityholders.
 
About Us
 
We operate two lines of business:
 
 
$
franchising, ownership and operation of storefront insurance agencies under the DCAP, Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency brand names
 
 
$
premium financing of insurance policies for our DCAP, Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency clients as well as clients of non-affiliated entities
 
Our storefront locations serve as insurance agents or brokers and place various types of insurance on behalf of customers. We focus on automobile, motorcycle and homeowners insurance and our customer base is primarily individuals rather than businesses.
 
There are 75 store locations owned or franchised by us of which 69 are located in New York State. In the New York metropolitan area, there are 46 DCAP franchises, one joint venture DCAP store and one wholly-owned location. There are also 18 Barry Scott locations and four Accurate Agency locations outside the New York metropolitan area (all located in central and western New York State). There are five Atlantic Insurance locations in eastern Pennsylvania. All of the Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency locations are wholly-owned by us.
 
The stores receive commissions from insurance companies for their services. We receive fees from the franchised locations in connection with their use of the DCAP name. Neither we nor the stores serve as an insurance company and therefore do not assume underwriting risks.
 
Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Payments Inc., we provide insurance premium financing services to our DCAP, Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency locations as well as non-affiliated insurance agencies. Payments Inc. is licensed by the New York State Department of Banking as an insurance premium finance agency and has been granted permission to conduct business in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
 
We also offer automobile club services for roadside emergencies. Income tax preparation services are also offered in connection with the operation of the DCAP stores.
 
We were incorporated in 1961 and changed our name to DCAP Group, Inc. in 1999.

RISK FACTORS
 
Before you buy shares of common stock from any selling securityholder, you should be aware that an investment in the common stock involves a degree of risk. You should only acquire these securities if you can afford to lose your entire investment. Before making an investment, you should carefully consider the following risks and speculative factors, as well as the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus. As discussed below, this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The actual results of our operations could be significantly different from the information contained in those forward-looking statements. Those differences could result from the risk factors discussed immediately below, as well as factors discussed in other places in this prospectus.
 
Because our core product is personal automobile insurance, our business may be adversely affected by negative developments in the conditions in this industry.
 
Approximately 51% of our revenues for 2005 were commissions and fees from the sale of personal automobile and other property and casualty insurance policies. As a result of our concentration in this line of business, negative developments in the economic, competitive or regulatory conditions affecting the personal automobile insurance industry could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Because substantially all of our insurance-related operations are located in New York and Pennsylvania, our business may be adversely affected by conditions in these states.
 
Substantially all of our insurance-related operations are located in the states of New York and Pennsylvania. Our revenues and profitability are affected by the prevailing regulatory, economic, demographic, competitive and other conditions in these states. Changes in any of these conditions could make it more costly or difficult for us to conduct our business. Adverse regulatory developments in New York or Pennsylvania, which could include fundamental changes to the design or implementation of the automobile insurance regulatory framework, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 
Our inability to refinance our current line of credit or obtain additional required financing would have an adverse effect on our premium finance revenue.
 
The working capital needs of our premium finance subsidiary, Payments Inc., are substantially dependent on its line of credit agreement with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Co. that expires in June 2007. That agreement includes covenants requiring us to pass specified financial tests and to refrain from certain kinds of actions. In the event we fail to meet our covenants or are unable to extend, refinance, replace or increase our bank line of credit on economically feasible terms, our income and the marketability of our premium finance services would be materially adversely affected.
 
Increases in interest rates would have an adverse effect on our premium finance operations.
 
Our premium finance line of credit with M&T provides for interest based upon M&T’s floating prime rate or the floating LIBOR rate. Increases in these rates would increase the cost of borrowing for premium financing. Since we generally charge interest on our premium finance loans at the statutory rate permitted in each state, we would not be able to increase our loan rates to compensate for any such increased cost of borrowing.
 
If we lose key personnel or are unable to recruit qualified personnel, our ability to implement our business strategies could be delayed or hindered.
 
Our future success will depend, in part, upon the efforts of Barry Goldstein, our Chief Executive Officer. The loss of Mr. Goldstein or other key personnel could prevent us from fully implementing our business strategies and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, an event of default under our line of credit agreement will be triggered if Mr. Goldstein is no longer serving as chief executive and chief operating officer of Payments Inc. We have an employment agreement with Mr. Goldstein that expires on April 1, 2007. As we continue to grow, we will need to recruit and retain additional qualified management personnel, but we may not be able to do so. Our ability to recruit and retain such personnel will depend upon a number of factors, such as our results of operations and prospects and the level of competition then prevailing in the market for qualified personnel.

Reductions in the New York involuntary automobile insurance market may adversely affect our premium finance business.
 
Our primary source of premium finance loans has been the assigned risk, or involuntary, automobile insurance market. In New York, since mid-2003, there has been a decline in the number of new applications for coverage at the New York Auto Insurance Plan. This has led to a reduction in the number of loans where policies of this type are the collateral. We have partially offset the rate of decline by increasing our loan originations at our Barry Scott and Atlantic Insurance locations and, effective January 2006, by offering premium financing to our Accurate locations. In general, these loans are of a smaller average size. Beginning in 2004, we began to finance certain voluntary auto insurance policies. There is no guaranty that the number or size of the loans in the voluntary marketplace will offset the declines experienced in the involuntary market.
 
The volatility of premium pricing and commission rates could adversely affect our operations. 
 
We currently derive most of our insurance-related revenues from commissions paid by insurance companies. The commission is usually a percentage of the premium billed to an insured. Insurance premiums are not determined by us. Historically, property and casualty premiums have been cyclical in nature and have displayed a high degree of volatility based on economic and competitive conditions. Because our commission revenue is paid to us based on insurance premiums, a decline in premium levels will have an adverse effect on our business. In times of expanded underwriting capacity of insurance companies, premium rates have decreased causing a reduction in the commissions payable to us. In addition, in many cases, insurance companies may seek to reduce their expenses by reducing the commission rates payable to insurance agents or brokers and generally reserve the right to make such reductions. We cannot predict the timing or extent of future changes in commission rates or premiums and therefore cannot predict the effect, if any, that such changes would have on our operations.
 
We are subject to regulation that may restrict our ability to earn profits.
 
Our premium finance subsidiary is subject to regulation and supervision by the financial institution departments in the states where it offers to finance premiums. Certain regulatory restrictions, including restrictions on the maximum permissible rates of interest for premium financing, and prior approval requirements may affect its ability to operate.
 
The operations of our storefronts depend on their continued good standing under the licenses and approvals pursuant to which they operate. Licensing laws and regulations vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Such laws and regulations are subject to amendment or interpretation by regulatory authorities, and generally such authorities are vested with broad discretion as to the granting, suspending, renewing and revoking of licenses and approvals.
 
In addition, there are currently 46 DCAP franchises. The offering of franchises is regulated by both the federal government and some states, including New York.

As a holding company, we are dependent on the results of operations of our operating subsidiaries and the regulatory and contractual capacity of our premium finance subsidiary to pay dividends to us.
 
We are a holding company and a legal entity separate and distinct from our operating subsidiaries. As a holding company without significant operations of our own, the principal sources of our funds are dividends and other payments from our operating subsidiaries. Dividends from our premium finance subsidiary are limited by the minimum capital requirements in applicable state regulations and by covenants in our loan agreement with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Co. Consequently, our ability to repay debts, pay expenses and pay cash dividends to our shareholders may be limited.
 
Our premium finance subsidiary is subject to capital requirements, and our failure to meet these standards could subject us to regulatory actions.
 
Our premium finance subsidiary is subject to minimum capital requirements imposed under the laws of the states in which it conducts business. Failure to meet applicable minimum statutory capital requirements could subject our premium finance subsidiary to further examination or corrective action imposed by state regulators, including limitations on our engaging in finance activities, state supervision or even liquidation.
 
Our business is highly competitive, which may make it difficult for us to market our core products effectively and profitably.
 
The personal automobile insurance business is highly competitive. We compete with numerous other insurance agents and brokers in our market. The amount of capital required to commence operations as a broker or agent is generally small and the only material barrier to entry is the ability to obtain the required licenses and appointments as a broker or agent for insurance carriers. We also compete with insurers, such as GEICO Insurance, that sell insurance policies directly to their customers.
 
Some of our competitors, including those who provide premium finance services, have substantially greater financial and other resources than we have, and they may offer a broader range of products or offer competing products or services at lower prices. Our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected by a loss of business to competitors offering similar insurance products or services at lower prices or having other competitive advantages.
 
A decline in the number of insurance companies offering insurance products in our markets would adversely affect our business.
 
Based upon economic conditions and loss history, insurance companies enter and leave our market. A reduction in the number of available insurance products that we can offer to our customers would adversely affect our business.

We may have difficulties in managing our expansion into new geographic markets, and we may not be successful in identifying agency acquisition candidates or integrating their operations.
 
Our future growth plans include expanding into new states by acquiring the business and assets of local agencies. Our future growth will face risks, including risks associated with obtaining necessary licenses for our premium finance operations and our ability to identify agency acquisition candidates or, if acquired, to integrate their operations. In addition, we may acquire businesses in states in which market and other conditions may not be favorable to us.
 
Our inability to identify and acquire agency acquisition candidates could hinder our growth by slowing down our ability to expand into new states. If we do acquire additional agencies, we could suffer increased costs, disruption of our business and distraction of our management if we are unable to integrate the acquired agencies into our operations smoothly. Our geographic expansion will also continue to place significant demands on our management, operations, systems, accounting, internal controls and financial resources. Any failure by us to manage our growth and to respond to changes in our business could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
We may seek to expand through acquisitions of complementary businesses or other assets which involve additional risks that may adversely affect us.
 
We continually seek to expand our operations by acquiring businesses or other assets which we believe will complement or enhance our business. We may also acquire or make investments in complementary businesses, products, services or technologies. In the event we effect any such acquisition, we may not be able to successfully integrate any acquired business, asset, product, service or technology in our operations without substantial costs, delays or other problems or otherwise successfully expand our operations. In addition, efforts expended in connection with such acquisitions may divert our management’s attention from other business concerns. We also may have to borrow money to pay for future acquisitions and we may not be able to do so at all or on terms favorable to us. Additional borrowings and liabilities may have a materially adverse effect on our liquidity and capital resources.
 
We are materially dependent upon the operations of our third party premium finance servicing agent. 
 
The administration, servicing and collection of our premium finance receivables is handled by a third party. Our premium finance business is materially dependent upon the operations of such company in a professional manner, including the timely cancellation of insurance policies based upon the failure of the customer to pay a premium finance receivable installment.
 
 
9

 
We rely on our information technology and telecommunication systems, and the failure of these systems could materially and adversely affect our business.
 
Our business is highly dependent upon the successful and uninterrupted functioning of our information technology and telecommunications systems as well as those of our premium financing servicing agent. We rely on these systems to support our operations, as well as to process new and renewal business, provide customer service, make claims payments, support premium financing activities, and facilitate collections and cancellations. The failure of these systems could interrupt our operations and result in a material adverse effect on our business.
 
The enactment of tort reform could adversely affect our business. 
 
Legislation concerning tort reform is from time to time considered in the United States Congress and in several states. Among the provisions considered for inclusion in such legislation are limitations on damage awards, including punitive damages. Enactment of these or similar provisions by Congress or by states in which we sell insurance could result in a reduction in the demand for liability insurance policies or a decrease in the limits of such policies, thereby reducing our commission revenues. We cannot predict whether any such legislation will be enacted or, if enacted, the form such legislation will take, nor can we predict the effect, if any, such legislation would have on our business or results of operations.

The shares being offered by this prospectus are being registered to permit public secondary trading, and the selling securityholders may offer all or part of the shares for resale from time to time. However, the selling securityholders are under no obligation to sell all or any portion of their shares nor are they obligated to sell any shares immediately under this prospectus. All information with respect to share ownership has been furnished by the selling securityholders.
 
The reflection in the table above of shares beneficially owned or to be sold in the offering is not intended to constitute a prediction as to either the number of shares with respect to which warrants will be exercised or preferred stock will be converted, or the number of shares otherwise eligible for sale that will be sold.

To our knowledge, no selling securityholder has had any position, office or other material relationship with us or any of our affiliates during the past three years other than as a holder of our securities, except that

Jack D. Seibald was elected to our Board of Directors in September 2004. In addition, as indicated in the footnotes to the above table, he also beneficially owns the shares owned by SDS Partners I. Ltd. and Stewart R. Spector.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling securityholders and their affiliated parties against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with this offering. The selling securityholders have agreed to indemnify us and our directors and officers, as well as our affiliates and any persons controlling us, against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, relating to information supplied by them for use in this prospectus. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors or officers, or persons controlling us, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC this kind of indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, and is therefore unenforceable.
 
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
The common stock may be sold or distributed from time to time by the selling securityholders or by pledgees, donees or transferees of, or successors in interest to, the selling securityholders. The shares may be sold or distributed directly to one or more purchasers, including pledgees, or through brokers or dealers who may act solely as agents or may acquire the shares as principals. The shares may be sold at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices, which may be changed.
 
The distribution of the shares of common stock may be effected in one or more of the following methods:
 
$  
ordinary brokers transactions;
 
$  
purchases by brokers or dealers as principal and resale by such purchasers for their own accounts pursuant to this prospectus;
 
$  
“at the market” to or through market makers or into an existing market for the common stock;
 
 
14

 
$  
in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents;
 
$  
through transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives, whether exchange listed or otherwise; or
 
$  
any combination of the foregoing, or by any other legally available means.
 
In addition, the selling securityholders or their successors in interest may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that require the delivery by such broker-dealers of the shares of common stock, which shares may be resold thereafter pursuant to this prospectus.
 
Brokers, dealers or agents participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling securityholders and/or the purchasers of shares of common stock for whom such broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal, or both. Such compensation as to a particular broker-dealer may be in excess of customary commissions. The selling securityholders and any broker-dealers acting in connection with the sale of the shares of common stock hereunder may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, and any commission received by them and any profit realized by them on the resale of shares of common stock as principals may be deemed underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. Neither we nor any selling securityholder can presently estimate the amount of that compensation. We know of no existing arrangements between any selling securityholder and any such stockholder, broker, dealer or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares of common stock.
 
Each selling securityholder and any other person participating in a distribution of securities will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities by, selling securityholders and other persons participating in a distribution of securities. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to those securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the securities offered by this prospectus.
 
Any securities covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under that rule rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
 
There can be no assurance that the selling securityholders will sell any or all of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus.

The Registrant has agreed to pay all fees and expenses incurred in connection with registration of the shares of common stock covered by this Registration Statement with the exception of underwriting discounts and commissions and the fees and expenses of counsel to the selling securityholders.
 
Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
 
Article TWELFTH  of the Registrant’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation eliminates, absent fraud, the personal liability of directors to the Registrant, stockholders or creditors thereof, or any other persons, in connection with losses incurred by the Registrant under or by reason of any contract or business transaction between a director and the Registrant, nor shall a director be accountable for any gains or profits realized thereon.
 
Article THIRTEENTH of the Registrant ’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that each director and each officer now or hereafter serving the Registrant or, at the request of the Registrant, any other corporation in which the Registrant has an interest as stockholder or creditor, and his heirs, executors and administrators, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Registrant from and against all costs, expenses and liabilities, including but not limited to counsel fees and amounts of judgments and amounts paid in settlement, which may be imposed upon or incurred by him in connection with or resulting from any claim made against him or any action, suit or proceeding in which he may be involved, by reason of his being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or any of such other corporation, whether or not he continues to be a director or officer at the time such costs, expenses and liabilities are imposed or incurred; provided, however, that no such director or officer shall be so indemnified (a) with respect to any matter as to which he shall, in any such action, suit or proceeding, be finally adjudged to be liable for misconduct in the performance of his duties as a director or officer, or (b) in the event of a settlement of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding unless (i) such settlement shall, with knowledge of the indemnification provided for hereby, be approved by the court having jurisdiction of such claim, action, suit or proceeding or (ii) such settlement shall have been made upon the written opinion of independent legal counsel, selected by or in a manner determined by the board of directors of the corporation, to the effect that there is no reasonable ground of liability for misconduct on the part of such director or officer and that the entire cost of such settlement will not substantially exceed the estimated cost of defending such claim, action, suit or proceeding to a final conclusion. The Registrant’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation also states that the foregoing rights of indemnification shall be in addition to any other rights to which such director or officer may otherwise be entitled as a matter of law.
 
II-1

Article FIFTEENTH of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the personal liability of directors to the Registrant and its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except for liability of a director (i) for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) arising under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
Additionally, the Registrant has included in its By-Laws provisions to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents and to purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of the performance of their duties as directors, officers, employees and agents as permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Delaware General Corporation Law provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors, officers, employees and agents may be entitled under the Registrant=s By-Laws, any agreement, vote of stockholders or otherwise.
 
The effect of the foregoing is to require the Registrant, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify the officers, directors, employees and agents of the Registrant for any claim arising against such persons in their official capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
 
In connection with this Registration Statement, the selling securityholders, severally but not jointly, have agreed to indemnify the Registrant, its directors, each of its officers who signed this Registration Statement, its employees, agents and each person who controls it within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act with respect to any statement in or omission from the Registration Statement or the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon information furnished in writing to the Registrant by the selling securityholders specifically for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 17. Undertakings.
 
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(1)  For determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, to treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.
 
(2)  To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
 
(3)  For determining liability of the Registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the Registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
 
(i)  Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
 
(ii)  Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the Registrant or used or referred to by the Registrant;
 
(iii)  The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the Registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the Registrant; and
 
(iv)  Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the Registrant to the purchaser.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the
 

II-3
 


event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed it the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
