What the health club bond actually covers
Ohio's prepaid entertainment contract law (ORC 1345.41 through 1345.45), part of the Consumer Sales Practices Act, governs health spa contracts — gym, fitness, and similar memberships sold for future services. A seller that collects dues for services it has not yet delivered can be required to provide security so members aren't left empty-handed if the club closes.
The security is for the benefit of buyers who prepay: if a spa goes out of business before a member's contract term ends, or fails to deliver promised services, the bond stands behind the refunds owed. A surety bond is one of the accepted forms of security.
Because the figure is set under the Attorney General's administration of the prepaid contract law rather than by a single flat statutory number, the amount depends on your situation — enter the figure your club requires, and pricing is 1% of your bond amount, with a $100 minimum.
