The Township of Brick requires a $1,000 bond to license a transient merchant, vendor, or solicitor doing business in town. 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.
















License bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here is the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application — no financials, no credit section.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Township of Brick transient merchant license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A transient merchant bond is a consumer-protection guarantee. Door-to-door vendors and temporary sellers take orders and money from residents, so the Township of Brick wants a financial backstop that you deliver what you sell, honor refunds, and follow the township’s solicitation rules.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Township of Brick (the obligee), with town residents as the protected parties. If a merchant takes deposits and fails to deliver, or violates the peddling ordinance, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and your township license can be suspended — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $1,000 filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond does not have one.
