OH Anytime Fitness franchise bonds.
$250 flat.
An Ohio Anytime Fitness franchise owner files a $25,000 bond under the franchisor's own franchise agreement — ours is $250 flat, and the price you see is the checkout price. This application includes a credit consent, but it authorizes a soft pull only — never a hard inquiry.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Anytime Fitness LLC's franchise agreement requires its Ohio franchise owners to carry a $25,000 surety bond as a condition of the franchise, separate from any state licensing scheme — Ohio does not license health clubs, and this bond is not conditioned on an Ohio statute. Franchisees across most states carry the same $25,000 amount, because the franchisor, not a state regulator, sets it.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the party the franchise agreement designates as obligee, with members who prepay for memberships as the protected parties. If a franchise closes or otherwise defaults on its obligations to members in a way the bond covers, a claim can be made against it.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Separately, Ohio's own Prepaid Entertainment Contracts Act (R.C. 1345.41 to 1345.50) requires a narrower $10,000 bond, in favor of the State of Ohio, but only from a health-spa seller whose facility is still under construction when membership contracts are sold — a different, state-set requirement that this $25,000 franchise bond does not replace or satisfy. Confirm both obligations with your franchisor and, if applicable, the Ohio Attorney General's office.
