Business services bond ($10,000).
$175 flat.
If your staff work inside a client's home or office — cleaning, caregiving, catering, landscaping, security — a $10,000 business services bond reimburses that client if an employee steals from or damages their property. For a shop of 6 or fewer employees, ours is $175 flat — the price you see is the checkout price, and the application collects no credit information.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A business services bond — also called an employee dishonesty bond or a janitorial bond — is not a government-mandated filing. No federal statute or state licensing board requires it. It exists because clients who let your staff into their homes or offices want protection if an employee steals cash, property, or damages the premises, and many client contracts, property managers, and procurement RFPs make proof of bonding a condition of the job.
It's a three-party arrangement in form, but functions closer to first-party coverage: you (the principal) buy the bond, and any client harmed by a covered employee's theft or damage can make a claim against it, up to the $10,000 face amount. This tier covers a business with 6 or fewer employees who have direct access to client premises.
It is not liability insurance — it responds to dishonest acts by your own staff, not accidents, and if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Coverage typically excludes volunteers and 1099 contractors; check your policy note if your crew includes either.
