Every Nevada license under NRS Chapter 604A — deferred deposit loans, high-interest loans, title loans, and check-cashing services — comes with a surety bond payable to the State of Nevada. NRS 604A.610 sets it at $50,000 plus $5,000 for each branch location operated under the license. The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, and the bond issues the moment you pay. Any credit screen is a soft pull only — it never affects your score.
















The 604A bond is amount-based — count your branches, enter the amount, and file. Here is the entire process:
Business details, your bond amount ($50,000 plus $5,000 per branch), an effective date, and a term. Any credit screen is a soft pull that never shows as a hard inquiry.
Your exact premium — 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — is shown before you pay, and the executed bond and power of attorney generate the moment you pay.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Nevada Division of Financial Institutions license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Nevada regulates deferred deposit loans, high-interest loans, title loans, and check-cashing services under NRS Chapter 604A, licensed by the Commissioner of Financial Institutions. NRS 604A.610 requires each license application to be accompanied by a surety bond payable to the State of Nevada, and requires the licensee to keep that bond in place afterward.
The amount is formulaic: $50,000, plus an additional $5,000 for each branch location at which the applicant proposes to do business under the license. Open a branch and the bond has to grow with it.
The bond runs for the use and benefit of any customer receiving the licensee's services at any location operated under the license — it stands behind the Chapter 604A rate, disclosure, collection, and repayment-plan rules. It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We track the term and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.
These are the actual issuing fields — business details, the bond amount, an effective date, and a term. That is the entire application.
