TX Anytime Fitness bonds.
$250 flat.
Texas conditions a health spa certificate of registration — the category that covers an Anytime Fitness franchise health club — on a surety bond filed with the Secretary of State under Occupations Code §702.151 (form 3002). The Secretary of State sets the amount by a location's prepaid-membership volume, between $20,000 and $50,000; this bond is written for the $25,000 tier. Ours is $250 flat, identical for every applicant at that amount. The application includes a credit consent, but it authorizes a soft credit pull only — a soft inquiry that never affects your score. No hard inquiry ever runs on this bond.

What it is and who needs it.
What the health spa bond actually covers
Texas regulates health spas under Occupations Code Chapter 702, which reaches franchised health clubs — including an Anytime Fitness location — the same as any independent gym or fitness studio selling memberships. The Secretary of State may not issue a health spa operator’s certificate of registration unless the applicant files a surety bond (or other approved security) sufficient to protect the spa’s members — §702.151.
The bond is payable to the state for the benefit of members: a member who suffers actual financial loss when a location closes can bring an action on the bond and recover the unused or unearned portion of their dues. The Secretary of State sets the required amount by the location’s total prepaid memberships, and the statute itself sets a floor of $20,000 and a ceiling of $50,000; this bond is our product for the $25,000 tier.
The bond is filed on Secretary of State form 3002. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a member, you repay the surety. If your location’s prepaid-membership volume calls for a different amount, tell us before you apply and we will confirm the correct figure with you rather than guess.
