Collection Licensing Act: exceptions: billing agents.

February 20, 2025

Summary

If enacted, this bill would create an exception from the Collection Licensing Act for billing agents who are not engaged in debt collection. It would amend Section 100001 of the Financial Code to clarify that billing agents acting solely on behalf of a creditor are not required to obtain a debt collection license. This affects any entity performing billing services without collection activities, such as some servicers or fintechs.
