Chapter 4. Agents of California Insurance Code >> Division 2. >> Part 5. >> Chapter 4.

A club agent doing business in this State shall not execute, issue or deliver any service contract to any person owning or operating motor vehicles without first obtaining a license from the commissioner.

The fee for filing application for license as motor club agent is the same as that for filing application for license as insurance agent and the provisions of Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 1621), Part 2, Division 1, applicable to insurance agents are applicable to motor club agents and their licenses. Insurance agents, brokers, and solicitors licensed under Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 1621), Part 2, Division 1, need not be licensed to act as motor club agents under this article. This section shall not permit a motor club agent to have a certificate of convenience nor a nonresident license, but shall require only club appointments, and shall not require the keeping of records or fiduciary accounts. Appropriate licenses and license applications may be prescribed by the commissioner.

Without first obtaining such license, a club agent shall not collect or receive from any person, in advance of the execution, issuance or delivery of any such service contract, any money or other thing of value upon any promise or agreement to execute, issue or deliver any such service contract.
