Delaware requires registered telemarketers to file a fixed $50,000 bond with the Consumer Protection Unit under the Telemarketing Fraud Prevention Act. Ours is $1,500 flat — 3% of the bond amount, the same for every registrant. The application is five minutes, with no credit check.
















Registration bonds like this are simple. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit check section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
Fixed-amount registration bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Consumer Protection Unit registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$50,000 bond × 3% = $1,500, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
Delaware regulates telemarketers under the Telemarketing Registration and Fraud Prevention Act (6 Del. C. ch. 25A). A registrant must file a $50,000 surety bond with the Consumer Protection Unit of the Department of Justice — it's a consumer-protection guarantee standing behind the money customers pay in telemarketed transactions.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Consumer Protection Director (the obligee), with your customers as the protected parties. The bond pays customers all moneys that become due and owing for violations of the chapter, and the surety's total liability can't exceed the $50,000 face amount.
The bond is a condition of your registration and, by statute, stays in effect for a period after you stop operating in the State. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $50,000 filing continuous. A letter of credit is the only alternative the statute allows.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
