Ours is $100 flat, set by our carrier’s rate book for this bond, the same for everyone. A quick soft credit check may apply — never a hard inquiry, no impact on your score.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A fulfillment provider is a third party that stores inventory and ships orders on behalf of another business — the kind of operation a remote or out-of-state seller uses to get products to in-state customers. Several states require these providers to register and, in some cases, post a small bond backing that registration.
This bond is a modest $1,000 guarantee standing behind the provider’s registration obligations to the state. The premium is set by our carrier’s rate book at $100 flat, the same for every applicant.
It is a three-party guarantee, not insurance for you: if the provider fails to meet its registration obligations and the state or a protected party is harmed, they can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We track the renewal and notify you 60 and 30 days out.
