Why You Need a California Telephonic Seller Bond
A California telephonic seller bond is required of those who sell goods or services through outbound calls, prerecorded messages, or telemarketing campaigns. It is a three-party agreement that ensures accountability:
- Principal: Telephonic seller (your business)
- Obligee: California Attorney General
- Surety: Bonding company
If a consumer experiences financial harm due to a seller’s unlawful or deceptive conduct, they may file a claim against the bond. The surety company will investigate the claim and, if valid, compensate the affected party up to the bond amount. The bonded business is then responsible for reimbursing the surety for any paid claims.
