MT telemarketer bonds.
$1,500 flat. Soft pull.
Montana requires every seller or telemarketer to file a $50,000 bond when registering with the Department of Justice. Ours is $1,500 flat — 3% of the bond amount, identical for every applicant. One soft credit pull, e-signed in 1–2 business days.

Three steps to registered.
Your telemarketing registration is waiting on this bond. Here's the entire process — no broker phone tag:
Apply once, online
Business details, owner information, effective date. That is the application — the only extra step is a one-time consent to a soft credit pull.
Reviewed & approved
Most of these clear quickly; if underwriting needs anything, you hear from an underwriter within 48 hours. The credit check is a soft pull that never affects your score.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Montana regulates sellers and telemarketers through the Department of Justice's Office of Consumer Protection under the Telemarketing Registration and Fraud Prevention Act. You can't act as a seller or telemarketer in Montana without first registering — and the registration application must be accompanied by a $50,000 surety bond.
The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: by statute it provides for indemnification to the State of Montana for any person who suffers a loss as a result of a violation of the telemarketing law. It's a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State together with harmed consumers (the protected parties).
The bond has a long tail. Under the statute it must stay in effect for one year after the telemarketing business stops operating in Montana, and a surety can only cancel on 60 days' written notice — if it isn't replaced in that window, your registration lapses. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety; it isn't insurance for you.
