What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Arizona regulates boxing and mixed martial arts under A.R.S. Title 5, Chapter 2, and conditions a promoter license on a $20,000 surety bond. The bond is a performance-and-payment guarantee: it stands behind a promoter’s obligations for a contest — paying contestants their purses and meeting the duties the law and the commission impose.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the State of Arizona together with harmed parties — fighters, officials, the public. If a promoter fails to pay a contestant or otherwise violates the combat-sports law, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Promoters who pay their fighters and run clean cards treat the bond as a license formality. The combat-sports program in Arizona has moved between agencies over the years; we issue the bond to the obligee your current license names.

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 $20,000 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
E-sign & file with the Commission. Pay online and receive the executed $20,000 bond, ready to file with your promoter license. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the state insists.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $120 at the $20,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
One soft credit pull, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score.
