New York Telemarketer Bond

If you want to run a telemarketing business in New York state, you have to get a bond and present it to the respective authority, the Department of State. The required bond amount is $25,000, which you have to present together with your registration application. You have to file it in the official bond form.

The bond should be signed by a notary to verify the three-party contract. The telemarketing bond guarantees you will abide by Article 26 of the New York state’s General Business Law, as well as any other applicable rules.

You need to post a $25,000 surety bond to get your New York telemarketer registration. The price you have to pay to get bonded is only a fraction of this bond amount. It is referred to as the bond premium. If your finances are in good shape, you can expect a rate between 1% and 3%.

The way your surety bond cost is set is by examining a list of financial factors about you and your business. Your personal credit score and business financials are key in this process. Other important criteria that your surety considers are cash on hand, as well as assets you can demonstrate. By assessing your financial profile, the level of bonding risk is determined. The smaller it is, the less you will pay for your bond.

As a telemarketer, you need to adhere to certain professional standards and laws. The bond guarantees your legal compliance, so in case you transgress from your obligations, a claim can be brought against your bond. You are liable to pay all costs that are incurred as a result of proven cases.

Parties that suffer damages due to your telemarketing company’s actions can get a reimbursement of up to $25,000, which is the penal sum of your bond. While your surety may cover the payments at first, you have to reimburse it fully. This makes bond claims a financial burden, which is best to be avoided.
