Plans and Financing Options for Bail Bond Payment

Don’t give up if you can’t afford to pay the bail bond fee. Simply give one of our bail bond financing experts a call, and we’ll learn what solution works for your unique situation. Here are a few options we provide:

 – Promissory Notes

We may accept promissory notes that can be paid back in monthly or another scheduled repayment plan.

 – Pledged Stocks & Bonds

Stocks, bonds, and trust accounts can be pledged to cover the cost of the bond. In some cases, these assets can be qualified through signatures before the money is generated, so that the defendant can be released more quickly.

 – Payday Loans

We work to find a loan package that is the best for your situation.

 – Government Pay Services (GPS)

This is a great option for smaller bond amounts. All you need to do is fill out a form online, provide a credit card: The process is fast.

 – Car Title Loans

Car title loans work up to $50,000 bond amounts (from $2,600). We’ll find the best lender, and you’ll be able to keep your car.

 – American Express Concierge Services

If you are an American Express cardholder, you just need to call the travel division (Global Express). You can call, and they will transfer funds.

 – Whole Life Insurance Policies

Trust accounts can be pledged to pay the bail bond fee.

Additional information: Large Bail Bonds & 1275 Holds

If you need bail bonds for a large bail amount (up in the millions), it is likely that a combination of property, assets, and money will be used. There must be a specific set of standards the court and bail bonds must meet. Contact us to learn more about bail bond options for large bail amounts. If the court holds a 1275 meeting, it is to examine the source of the funds used to post bail. In our experience at Ventura Bail Bonds, denial of funds is rare. But, each situation is unique, and will result in a different outcome.
