Bonds
Many trades require license bonds, and many contracts require bid bonds — we can help with any and all bond needs, available 24/7.
What Is Bonds?
At Oklahoma Insurance Group, we offer a variety of bonds tailored to meet the needs of our clients — and through our partnerships with Propeller Bonds and RLI, most are available 24/7 so you can apply and bind at your own convenience. License and permit bonds guarantee your business will comply with the laws and regulations of a municipality or governing body, and are often required to operate in specific cities or states. ERISA bonds are required by the IRS of any business providing employees a 401(k), profit sharing, or pension plan, covering ten percent of plan assets. We also handle notary bonds, public official bonds, business services bonds that protect you if an employee steals from a client's home or business, and bid bonds that assure a project owner you have the financial backing and commitment to complete the project if selected.
Why Bonds Matters
A bond is usually the last piece of paper standing between you and a license, a contract, or a job start date — and waiting days for one can cost you the work. Unlike insurance, a bond is a guarantee to a third party that you'll perform, and having a bond partner who can issue quickly keeps your business moving. We've made the process fast enough that a bond requirement never has to slow you down.
Who Needs Bonds?
Contractors bidding public or private work, trades that need license or permit bonds to operate, notaries, appointed or elected officials who handle public funds, service businesses whose employees work inside customers' homes, and any employer offering a 401(k) or pension plan. If a form, contract, or statute says 'bond required,' that's us.

Local Considerations
Oklahoma municipalities and state licensing boards each have their own bond requirements, and contractors working across the Norman and OKC metro area often need several at once. Because our bond portal runs 24/7, you can apply and bind the night before a bid opens instead of waiting on office hours. We do all the leg work on the odd ones, too.
