Allegany County gaming wholesaler bonds.
$100 flat.
Allegany County requires a $10,000 surety bond for a wholesaler's paper gaming license — the license to sell paper gaming products such as instant (pull-tab) tickets to County operators. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the checkout price. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Allegany County licenses wholesalers of paper gaming products — the businesses that supply instant (pull-tab) tickets and similar paper gaming to County operators — and conditions the license on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond is a compliance guarantee that the wholesaler follows the County's gaming rules and accounts properly for the products and taxes involved.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Allegany County (the obligee). If a wholesaler violates the County gaming rules and the County or a harmed party suffers, they can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Wholesalers who follow the County rules treat the bond as a license formality.
