What it is and who needs it.
What the buying service bond actually covers
A buying service or club sells memberships that promise access to discounted goods or services. Georgia's Buying Services article (O.C.G.A. §§ 10-1-590 through 10-1-606) conditions a buying service license on a $25,000 bond (or cash bond) payable to the Governor, for the benefit of members.
The bond is conditioned to pay losses, damages, and expenses that members sustain by reason of any fraudulent misrepresentation or breach of contract by the club — for example, a club that takes membership fees and fails to deliver the promised buying service.
If the operator runs buying-service activity at more than one physical location, a separate $25,000 bond is required for each. We issue each at a flat 3% — $750 — with no credit check. Georgia’s Buying Services Act also requires a three-day membership cancellation period.
