Bail bond software in Tennessee.

Bondskeeper is open in Tennessee. You can sign up today, free, and run your book on it. What you will not find on this page is a single Tennessee deadline, rate band or filing date, and that is on purpose.

Start free

Five live bonds, free. No card, no sales call.

What works here today

  • Cases, defendants and co-signers, all in one running record
  • Write a bond on your phone and it is saved the moment you post it
  • Court dates in one calendar, with a confirmed date marked apart from one nobody has checked
  • Payment plans, balances, and who is behind
  • The co-signer portal, with your agency’s name on it, no app and no password
  • Runs on your phone like an app, and keeps working with no signal
  • The lead ledger, free, because answering a call that came to you needs no state’s rules

What is switched off here

  • The premium box does no maths here. We will not price a bond against rules we have not read.
  • No court clocks. We do not count this state’s deadlines for you.
  • Nothing files itself with your state agency.
  • Court dates are typed in by hand, and marked unconfirmed until someone confirms them.

State law

Who regulates bail bonding here

The court with criminal jurisdiction in the county

Tennessee approves bondsmen court by court rather than through a single state licensing agency. A court may withhold, withdraw or suspend approval, the bondsman may answer the charges in writing and be heard, and a refusal can be appealed to the next highest court with criminal jurisdiction and heard afresh.

That is who you deal with, not a summary of what they require. We have not read this state’s rules and we are not going to paraphrase them for you. Read the source and ask them.

We have not verified this state’s rules

Reading Virginia’s rules properly took months, and six of them still went to a lawyer with a question mark on them. We have not done that for Tennessee. So you will not find a Tennessee deadline, rate or filing date anywhere on this site, and the software will not calculate one. If you acted on a date we made up, you would miss a filing and lose a judgment, and that would be our doing. Everything on the left works because none of it depends on knowing Tennessee law.

How a state becomes Core

Demand picks the order. Tell us you are in Tennessee and it counts toward the next state we read end to end, and hold to the same standard Virginia is held to: real sources, a citation on every rule, and the clocks running.
