Duration of this Bond

 

 

 

Once issued, the transmitter surety bond is active for one year from the date of issuance. In some instances, options may exist to prepay your surety bond for up to 3 years. While this will be significantly more upfront, if available to you, it will offer you a savings over a year-to-year renewal.

 

 

 

Its Purpose

 

 

 

The Tennessee money transmitter bond exists to protect consumers.

As stated in statutes governing the bond requirement, Tennessee Code Annotated, 45-7-208, the surety bond exists as a financial guarantee that you will handle, transmit, and pay money as required to according to all regulations.

The bond protects against the failure to follow such regulations, which in turn causes harm to the consumer. As principal of this bond, you would be obligated to indemnify the surety for any claims paid against your bond.
