What it is and who needs it.
What the club bond actually covers
Minnesota regulates health, sport, fitness, dating, and buying clubs that sell prepaid memberships under the club-membership provisions of Minn. Stat. ch. 325G. A club that accepts prepayments of $50 or more must register with the Attorney General’s Office and post security, of which a surety bond is one accepted form.
The bond is held for the benefit of members. If a club closes or files for bankruptcy and a member loses part of their prepaid membership fee, the member (or the Attorney General on their behalf) can file a claim against the bond and recover.
The required amount is the aggregate value of your outstanding liabilities to members — what you would owe back if you closed today. The statute caps the bond at $200,000 no matter how many facilities you operate. Enter the figure your liabilities require, and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
