Pawnbroker Bonds

What Is a Pawnbroker Bond?

Pawnbroker bonds ensure that a pawnshop complies with government regulations and protects its clients from potential fraud or theft. For example, if something happens to someone’s property that is being held as collateral, the surety bond will compensate the claimant up to the full bond amount.

We also issue Precious Metals and Gems Dealer Bonds in several states which are often required for secondhand dealers.
