Operating an Anytime Fitness location in Kansas means filing a $25,000 surety bond as a condition of the franchise agreement — ours is $250 flat, and the price you see is the checkout price. The application includes a credit consent, but it authorizes a soft pull only — nothing that touches your score.
















The franchise health club bond is about the simplest filing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details, franchise contract date, and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no lengthy underwriting file.
This bond is among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to submit as proof of your franchise-required coverage. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
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.
These are the actual issuing fields — a short business form plus a soft-pull credit consent, nothing more.
