What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Anytime Fitness is a national health-club franchise, and its franchise agreement conditions a Kansas location's operation on a $25,000 surety bond naming the franchisor as obligee. Kansas does not run a statutory health-club bonding program the way some states do — this is a private contractual requirement set by the franchisor, not a state statute or agency filing.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal and franchisee), the surety carrier, and Anytime Fitness or its designated obligee, with club members as the protected parties. If a location closes early, breaches its membership agreements, or fails to honor prepaid dues and refunds in the way the franchise system requires, an affected member or the franchisor can make a claim against the bond up to $25,000.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Because it's tied to your franchise agreement rather than a public license, we recommend confirming the current bond amount and named obligee directly with your Anytime Fitness franchise business consultant before your first filing, since franchise terms can be updated between agreements.

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 $25,000 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.
