Top Money Transmitter Bond Questions Answered

Why is the Kansas baseline bond higher than other states?
Kansas sets a strict $200,000 baseline to ensure all licensed money services businesses possess strong financial backing and credibility.

The surety must give 30 days notice; you must file a replacement bond via NMLS before that window closes to prevent license revocation.
