Purpose

A form may address customer refunds, performance of specified consumer duties, or money handled for another person.

Who needs it

Service providers, sellers, and intermediaries responding to a consumer-protection bonding request.

Who it protects

Protection is tied to the form and the protected consumer interest; it is not a general guarantee that every customer dispute is covered.
