Common Questions About Getting Bonded Online

Get straight answers to the most frequently asked questions about instant bonding

Where can I purchase a surety bond online?

You can buy a surety bond online directly through BuySuretyBonds.com in all 50 states. Our platform offers instant approval for qualifying bonds and processes most other bonds within 1 business day—while competitors often take weeks.

What types of bonds can I get instantly?

Notary Public Bonds, most Public Official Bonds up to $10,000, Contractor License Bonds up to $25,000 (without performance/payment conditions), and some Defective Title Bonds can be issued instantly without underwriting.

Which bonds require underwriting approval?

Motor Vehicle Dealer Bonds, Freight Broker Bonds (BMC-84), DMEPOS Bonds, Tax and Fee Bonds over $10,000, Probate Bonds, and California Contractor Bonds require underwriter review and approval.

Do all bonds require a soft credit check?

No. Instantly issued bonds like Notary Bonds and most Public Official Bonds don't require soft credit checks. Only bonds requiring underwriting will need a soft credit check (which won't affect your credit score - just for pricing).

How long does underwriting take?

Most bonds receive an underwriting decision within 1 business day via email—significantly faster than industry standard.

Can I quote a bond without completing the full application?

Yes. You can send a quote link after getting an initial indication, allowing the principal to complete the application themselves, or you can complete it and send the final quote.

What documents might be required for underwritten bonds?

Depending on the bond type, you may need Certificates of Insurance, Business or Personal Financial Statements, Court Documents, or Proof of Ownership documents.

How do I pay for my bond?

Payment is done on a direct pay basis using debit card, credit card, or PayPal and must be completed before the bond processes.

When is my bond available after payment?

The bond is immediately available for download after payment is completed.

What if I can't find the bond I need?

Submit a request through the portal. If the bond falls within their offerings in a serving state, they'll upload it the same day.

Can someone else complete the application for me?

Yes. You can send a quote link to the principal or another party to complete the remaining steps, including e-signing the indemnity agreement and payment.

What happens if my effective date passes before payment?

The bond will not process if the effective date has passed before the principal completes payment.

How do I track my bonds?

Use the dashboard to monitor bonds in three tables: Quoted (initial quotes), Pending (sent quotes or under review), and Purchased (completed bonds).

What if my application is denied?

Denied applications will show in your Quoted Bonds table with a 'Denied' status due to basic eligibility requirements not being met.

Can I get my quote link again if I lose it?

Yes. You can retrieve generated links by navigating to the Action column in your Pending Bonds table.

Do I need to sign anything?

Yes. An Indemnity Agreement must be electronically signed before payment, which Bond Ramp streamlines through their platform.

Purchase Surety Bonds Online - Your Competitive Advantage
