PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

The Advanta Business Card Master Trust (the "Trust") was organized by
Advanta Business Receivables Corp. (the "Transferor"), pursuant to the Trust
Agreement (the "Trust Agreement") dated as of August 1, 2000, between the
Transferor and Wilmington Trust Company as owner trustee (the "Owner Trustee").
Pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of August 1, 2000,
between Advanta Bank Corp. ("ABC") as seller and the Transferor as purchaser,
ABC transferred all of its rights, title and interest in, to and under certain
credit card receivables arising from time to time in designated accounts (the
"Receivables") to the Transferor. The Transferor, in turn, transferred all of
its rights, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables to the Trust,
pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement dated as of August 1, 2000 (the
"Transfer and Servicing Agreement"), among the Transferor, ABC as servicer (the
"Servicer") and the Trust. Under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the
Servicer has agreed to service and administer the Receivables as agent for the
Transferor and the Trust. The Trust and Bankers Trust Company as indenture
trustee (the "Indenture Trustee") entered into a master indenture (the "Master
Indenture") dated as of August 1, 2000. The Master Indenture is supplemented by
various series supplements providing for the issuance of notes, in varying
series. Publicly registered and outstanding notes existing as of December 31,
2002 are the following: Series 2000-B Asset-Backed Notes, Class A, Class B and
Class C; Series 2000-C Asset-Backed Notes, Class A, Class B and Class C; Series
2001-A Asset-Backed Notes, Class A, Class B and Class C; and Series 2002-A
Asset-Backed Notes, Class A, Class B and Class C (these publicly registered
notes are collectively referred to as the "Notes"). The Notes represent
interests in the Trust only and do not represent interests in or obligations of
the Transferor, ABC, Advanta Corp. or any affiliate thereof.

The Registrant has prepared this Form 10-K in reliance upon various
no-action letters issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") to other trusts which are substantially similar to the Trust.
Items designated herein as "Not Applicable" have been omitted as a result of
this reliance.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

The Trust's assets consist primarily of a pool of receivables in a
portfolio of business revolving credit card accounts originated or acquired by
ABC.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Transferor is not aware of any material pending litigation involving
the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Transferor or ABC with
respect to the Notes or the property or activities of the Trust. The Transferor
is aware that the Servicer is a party to various legal proceedings resulting
from the ordinary business activities relating to its current and discontinued
operations.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

No vote or consent of holders of any Notes was solicited for any purpose
during the year ended December 31, 2002.
