What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Alabama's Telemarketing Act (Ala. Code §8-19A-1 et seq.) requires any organization, institution, or person engaged in commercial telephone solicitation to be licensed by the Attorney General's Office. As a financial requirement of that license, §8-19A-10 conditions licensure on a $50,000 bond (or an equivalent letter of credit or certificate of deposit).
The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee, conditioned on the licensee's compliance with the Telemarketing Act. If a telemarketer violates the chapter and causes a loss, the harmed party — or the state — can recover against the bond, up to the bond amount.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The $50,000 is a statutory minimum; some applicants post more. We issue the $50,000 bond at $500 flat, and no credit check; the bond must stay on file for the life of your telemarketing license.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $50,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with your license application. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to submit with your Commercial Telephone Sales License application to the Attorney General. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $500 at the $50,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
