What it is and who needs it.
What the peddler bond actually guarantees
A peddler bond is a consumer-protection guarantee. Door-to-door sellers take orders and payments from residents who have no storefront to return to — the City of Norman wants a financial backstop that those residents are protected against fraud, misrepresentation, and unfulfilled orders.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Norman (the obligee), with Norman residents as the protected parties. If a peddler defrauds a customer or violates the permit terms, the harmed resident can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Honest sellers who deliver what they promise treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the City of Norman. Submit the executed bond with your Norman peddler permit application. Wet-ink original mailed whenever the City insists.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $25,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
