Wisconsin Collection Agency



The Wisconsin Collection Agency is a $25,000.00 bond. This bond is available in 1 year term.

The Collection Agency Bond protects the debtors and indicates that the company has been approved by the state to offer ethical and professional services. This bond also gives the client a plan of action should the collection agency do anything illegal or unethical that affects that client in a negative way. If the claim is determined to be valid, the surety must pay reparation up the bond's full amount. The surety will then require reimbursement from the collection agency.

Ashton Agency has a 99% approval rate and offers the collection agency bond for Wisconsin license holders at some of the most competitive rates available. Let us save you money!

Who needs the collection agency bond?

In the State of Wisconsin, collection agencies are required to retain separate licenses and surety bonds for each business location (including any branch offices) in order to be in compliance with section 218.04 of the Wisconsin Statutes.

What is the collection agency bond?

The collection agency bond protects the party requesting the surety bond, the Obligee, against any financial losses as a result of poor financial choices, damages, unethical decisions, or a failure to adhere to state and local laws on the part of you, the Principal. By obtaining your bond, you are telling the Obligee that you can be trusted and that you stand by your business decisions.

All Wisconsin collection agency bonds expire on September 30th annually.

Business entities located in Wisconsin are required to file a bond in the amount of $25,000. Out-of-state business entities must obtain a $35,000 bond.

The Wisconsin collection agency bond is also known as: third-party debt collector bond, debt collector bond, consumer collection agency bond, and foreign agency bond.
