The Massachusetts seller of checks bond is a $100,000 surety bond required of licensees.

The amount that you will pay for this surety bond will be determined by an application, your experience in the industry, and a credit check. Our agency uses a soft inquiry which will not adversely affect your credit.

Because of the bond’s amount, an applicant may or may not be asked some or all of the following:

  • Your source(s) of income;
  • Whether or not you have previously had a surety bond revoked. And if so, why?
  • Financial statement;
  • Net worth;
  • Whether you are currently a party to any lawsuit or bankruptcy proceeding;
  • Whether you have any unsatisfied tax liens or judgments;
  • Any other questions or requests deemed necessary for underwriting your bond.

As a broad general rule, an applicant for the check seller bond may pay between 1-3% of the bond’s amount; however, the amount that you will pay will be determined by the criteria above, and particularly your credit.
