What the health club bond actually covers
Maryland’s Health Club Services law (Commercial Law § 14-12B) requires a seller of health club services agreements to register and maintain a surety bond. The bond protects members’ prepaid fees, dues, deposits, and initiation fees if the club goes out of business before their contracts end.
A new registrant must keep a bond of at least $50,000 until its outstanding obligations to consumers exceed that figure. After that, the bond is set to the aggregate value of outstanding member liabilities — moneys received in advance, less the prorated value of services already delivered — based on a report from an independent CPA.
For lifetime contracts, liabilities are prorated over no more than 36 months, and the bond is commonly capped around $200,000 per location. Enter the figure your situation requires and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check.
