How Much Does an Idaho Surety Bond Cost?
Idaho surety bonds cost as little as $100. You only pay a small percentage (typically 1% - 10%) of the total bond amount needed. For example, a $10,000 bond costs $100 - $1,000.
Costs vary significantly depending on the bond amount you need and your rate (the percentage of the full bond amount you must pay). For most bonds, an individual's rate is determined by running a soft credit check.

While credit is highly influential when it comes to bond rates, we may also factor in past bonding history, industry experience, and business financials. All of which can be very beneficial to get those with lower credit bonded.
One of our clients, Tilda, was denied by two other sureties before she came to us. We looked past her low credit score and found she had 5+ years of experience in her industry. She also had a few past bonds with no claims made against them. With this, we were more than happy to issue her the bond she needed.
