How Much Surety Bonds Cost?
Your surety bond cost is called a premium and is equal to a percentage of the total bond amount. Usually, getting bonded for standard markets is at 1-3%, while higher risk applicants can get rates at 3-10% of the bond amount. For more information about surety bond pricing and how your rate is formulated, you can check our surety bond cost page.

Surety Bonds for Bad Credit Applicants
Bad credit bonding is somewhat different for applicants with low credit scores. To compensate for the higher risk, sureties will offer quotes between 5% and 15% of the total bond amount. Yet, by improving your credit score and financials, you can improve your bond rate significantly over time. Learn more about Bryant Surety's special Bad Credit Surety Bonds Program.
