NY sanctioning entity purse bonds.
$200 flat.

Ours is $200 flat — the price you see is the checkout price — and the application collects no credit information.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the purse bond actually guarantees

19 NYCRR 214.4(d) requires two bonds from an Authorized Sanctioning Entity that oversees an authorized professional combative sport, and they do different jobs. The $10,000 bond is a compliance guarantee — faithful performance of Article 41 of the General Business Law and the Commission’s rules. This $20,000 bond is a money guarantee: it stands behind the payment of professionals’ purses and the legitimate expenses of printing tickets and all advertising material.

The distinction is worth reading closely. The parallel promoter bond in 19 NYCRR 207.14(b) also covers the salaries of club employees licensed by the Commission; the sanctioning-entity version in 214.4(d) does not name them. If you are licensed as both an ASE and a promoter, you are looking at two separate sets of filings, not one — and the Commission expects each to be in force on the date of the licence it supports.

It is a three-party arrangement: the entity (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State (the obligee), with the fighters, ticket printers and advertisers who are owed money as the protected parties. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays an unpaid purse, you repay the surety. Any lapse or expiration during the licence period is cause for immediate suspension until the bond is renewed or a new one is filed and approved.

19 NYCRR 214.4(d)19 NYCRR 214.4(d) directs an Authorized Sanctioning Entity applicant to execute and file with the Secretary of State a $10,000 faithful-performance bond and, in addition, a bond of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) approved as to form and sufficiency of sureties by the Secretary of State, conditioned for and guaranteeing the payment of professionals’ purses and the legitimate expenses of printing tickets and all advertising material. All such bonds must be in effect on the date of licensure, and any lapse or expiration in either bond during the licence period is cause for immediate licence suspension. The ASE licence itself is biennial (19 NYCRR 214.5(b)), with renewal due 30 to 60 days before expiry.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the $20,000 sanctioning entity bond?The premium is $200 flat — set by our carrier’s rate book for this bond. The $20,000 amount is fixed by 19 NYCRR 214.4(d), so there is nothing to quote.
Do I pay the $20,000?No. You pay $200. The $20,000 is the surety’s maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond?Bonds of this class are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many applicants finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly. If a check ever runs on this bond, it is a soft pull that will not affect your score.
How is this different from the promoter purse bond?The obligation is nearly identical, but the promoter version in 19 NYCRR 207.14(b) also guarantees the salaries of club employees licensed by the Commission, and it supports a promoter licence rather than a sanctioning-entity licence. If you hold both licences you file both sets of bonds.
