If you are engaged as a money transmitter in Pennsylvania, you are required under Act Number 249 of the 1965 Session of the General Assembly, as amended, to file a Pennsylvania Money Transmitter Bond as a condition of licensure.
A surety bond protects the party requesting the bond, the Obligee, against any financial losses as a result of poor financial decisions, damages, unethical decisions, or a failure to follow state and local laws on the part of you, the Principal. The Pennsylvania Money Transmitter Bond holds you accountable for your business decisions.
By possessing a Pennsylvania Money Transmitter Bond, you are telling your Obligee that you can be trusted as a Principal and that you stand behind your business decisions.
