KS automobile club bonds.
$900 flat. Soft pull.
Kansas requires an automobile (motor) club to file a $30,000 bond with the Insurance Department to sell memberships in the state, under the automobile club services act. Ours is $900 flat — 3% of the bond amount, identical for every club. One soft credit pull, e-signed in 1–2 business days.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
An automobile club (motor club) sells memberships that promise services like roadside assistance, towing, bail-bond or arrest-bond certificates, trip routing, and similar benefits. Kansas regulates these clubs through the Insurance Department under the automobile club services act, K.S.A. 40-2501 et seq.
A club must give the commissioner of insurance a deposit or surety bond for the protection of its Kansas members — a guarantee that the club will faithfully furnish and render the services it sells. Any member defrauded or injured by the club's wrongful act, misrepresentation, or failure to perform can sue on the bond in their own name.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Kansas, with members as the protected parties. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The amount on this listing is a fixed $30,000; confirm the figure the commissioner sets for your club.
