About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the solicitor bond actually covers

The City of Benbrook requires anyone soliciting or selling door-to-door to obtain a solicitor permit, and conditions that permit on a surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your following the City's solicitation rules and dealing honestly with residents.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Benbrook (the obligee), with harmed residents as the protected parties. If a solicitor takes money and fails to deliver, or violates the City's solicitation ordinance, the harmed resident can recover against the bond.

Because the City sets the amount, you enter the figure on your permit application and pricing starts from $100 — your price is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum.

City of Benbrook (solicitor permit)The City of Benbrook requires this bond as a condition of a door-to-door solicitor permit; the bond amount and terms are set by the City of Benbrook through its solicitation ordinance and City Secretary. Confirm the required amount on your permit application.

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 Benbrook. Submit the executed bond with your solicitor permit application to the City. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.

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.

One application, issued on the spot for most.

Submit the application with the bond amount the City set — most applications generate the executed bond instantly, ready to file.

Do I pay the bond amount?No. You pay the premium, not the bond amount. The bond amount is the surety's maximum liability to the City and harmed residents if a valid claim is made — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

What does the bond protect against?It protects residents and the City if you violate Benbrook's solicitation rules or take money without delivering. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety — it is not insurance for you.
What amount should I choose?Use the figure on your City of Benbrook permit application. If it is not stated, ask the City Secretary for the required amount and we will issue it.
Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
