What is Surety Bonds insurance?

A bond is not insurance. It is a promise, backed by a bond company, that you will do what your license or your contract requires. Licenses, permits, and contracts require them across dozens of industries, from auto dealers to contractors to notaries.

We know this

A bond is a promise with your name on it.

Unlike insurance, a bond claim gets paid and then collected back from you, which is why getting the amount right, and the exact name of whoever required it, matters. We fill in both correctly the first time.

License & permit bonds

What the state or city requires before you can operate.

Contract bonds

Bid, performance, and payment bonds for jobs that require them.

Dealer bonds

The DMV requirement for auto sales, placed with the garage program.

Court & fiduciary bonds

For obligations a court or estate demands.

Frequently asked questions

How fast can I get a bond?

Most license and permit bonds issue same-day or next-day. Contract bonds take longer because the bond company reviews the job first. Either way, tell us the deadline and we work to it.

Is a bond the same as insurance?

No. Insurance protects you; a bond protects whoever required it, and you repay claims. Most businesses need both, which is why we place them together.

What does it cost?

A percentage of the bond amount, driven by bond type and credit. Small license bonds often cost less than dinner.
