About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Georgia regulates warranty and service-agreement companies — including electronic-product warrantors and home warranty providers — through the Office of Insurance & Safety Fire Commissioner under Title 33. A warrantor must post a surety bond of not less than $100,000 as a condition of doing business in Georgia.

The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind the warrantor’s obligations under the warranty or service agreements it sells. If a warrantor fails to honor valid claims or engages in deceptive practices, harmed consumers can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a consumer claim, you repay the surety. The Commissioner enforces this: warrantors that fail to post the required $100,000 bond have been ordered to stop selling warranty and service contracts in Georgia.

O.C.G.A. § 33-7-6Georgia warranty / service-agreement companies (including electronic-product warrantors and home warranty providers) file with the Office of Insurance & Safety Fire Commissioner and must post a surety bond of not less than $100,000 under O.C.G.A. § 33-7-6 and related provisions. The Commissioner has issued cease-and-desist orders against warrantors that failed to post the required bond. Confirm the amount on your filing.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Georgia home warranty bond?The premium is $2,000 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond, the same for every warrantor. The $100,000 is the statutory minimum, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $100,000?No. You pay $2,000. The $100,000 is the surety's maximum liability to consumers and the state — it's not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond?The Office of Insurance & Safety Fire Commissioner, under O.C.G.A. § 33-7-6 and Title 33. Warranty and service-agreement companies must post a bond of not less than $100,000 to do business in Georgia.
Is there a credit check?Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. It's the only extra step beyond the application, and it informs approval, not price. The price stays $2,000 flat either way: credit can affect whether we approve the bond, never what it costs.
When does it renew?The bond must stay active for as long as you sell warranty agreements in Georgia. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out with autopay available so your filing never lapses.
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.
