Unlike insurance, which protects you, your home or your business, Fuel Supply Payment Surety Bonds guarantee payment for resale of fuel. If payment is not made in a timely manner, a claim can be filed by the obligee with the surety company for relief. If the claim is valid, the surety will pay up to the penal sum of the bond to resolve the claim. You are then required to reimburse the surety for all monies paid out, including any attorney fees incurred by the surety in the defense of the claim.

Claims can be detrimental to your business. Not only do they cause financial harm, they make it very difficult, if not impossible, to get bonded again.
