Some orders need a bounty hunter badge the TrueBadge Designer doesn't cover — a custom shape outside the standard catalog, a complex multi-layer department seal, hybrid metal-and-enamel finishes, inlaid stones, photographic memorial elements, or a one-of-a-kind commemorative die. For these, the Owl Badges in-house design team builds your bounty hunter badge from scratch. There is no design fee, no mold setup fee, and no commitment to order.
- Fully custom shapes outside the standard catalog
- Complex multi-layer seals with raised 3D elements
- Hybrid finishes — antique, two-tone, enamel
- Inlaid stones & memorial badges with photographic elements
- One-of-a-kind commemorative dies for unique shapes
Custom quotes typically returned within 4 business hours, Mon–Fri 9 AM–4 PM PST.
How to design your bounty hunter badge
Three steps in the Owl Badges TrueBadge Designer — choose the shape and wording, add your name and license, then order; we verify the license before production.
Choose shape, finish and wording
Pick a 5- or 6-point star or an eagle-top in gold, worded BOUNTY HUNTER or the title on your state license — never a police pattern or a government seal.
Add name, agency and license number
Enter your name, agency, license number and state; add an agency emblem or choose a generic center. Every change previews on screen in real time.
Order and verify
Add the design to your cart and check out. Before production we confirm your state license or agency registration, then the badge is die-struck and the mold kept on file for a spare or a partner’s badge later.
Shop Custom Bounty Hunter Badges
Our most-ordered bounty hunter badge styles — 5-point stars and eagle-tops, fully customizable with your title, name, agency and license number. $150 for one, $90 each at three.
Custom Bounty Hunter Badge Pricing
A custom bounty hunter badge is $150 for one, $90 each at three to nine and $80 at ten or more — the tiers a licensed bounty hunter or a small agency actually orders at. No setup fees, no mold fees, no minimum, and every order is verified against the state license or registration before production.
Per-badge pricing varies with finish and customization. Pricing reviewed September 2026.
How many bounty hunter badges should you order?
Most orders on this page are one badge or a team of five to ten. Because your mold is kept on file, a partner’s badge or a replacement later comes from the same die.
| Use case | Typical order | Why |
|---|---|---|
| One agent | 1–2 badges | A duty badge and a spare at $150 each; add an ID card to complete the credential. |
| A recovery team | 3–9 badges | Team members from one mold at $90 each. |
| An agency | 10+ badges | Agents across an agency at $80, with sequential numbers and spares for turnover. |
Bounty Hunter Badges at a Glance
What we recommend for a bounty hunter badge
A 5- or 6-point star or an eagle-top in gold, worded BOUNTY HUNTER or the exact title on your license, with your license number on a lower panel and no state or municipal seal. Order the ID card with it; most states expect both. Every option is customizable in the TrueBadge Designer.
Price Calculator
How much does a custom bounty hunter badge cost?
A custom bounty hunter badge costs $150 for a single badge, $90 each at three to nine, and $80 each at ten or more, die-struck and personalized with your name, agency, license number and state. Do bounty hunters have badges? In most licensing states, yes — a bounty hunter badge paired with a state license and an ID card is the standard credential, and a real bounty hunter badge is worded for the role. There is no minimum — one badge is a real order — no setup fee and no mold fee, and production runs 8 to 14 weeks. Enter your quantity below.
No minimum · no setup or mold fees · 8–14 weeks · license or registration verified before production.
Bounty hunter badge price ladder
| Quantity | Price per badge | Typical order |
|---|---|---|
| 1–2 badges | $150.00 | One agent — duty badge and a spare |
| 3–9 badges | $90.00 | A small agency or a recovery team |
| 10–15 badges | $80.00 | An agency with several agents |
| 16–24 badges | $75.00 | A multi-office agency |
| 25–49 badges | $65.00 | Regional agency |
| 50–499 badges | $55.00 | Large surety or agency program |
| 500+ badges | $45.00 | National programs |
Two badges cost $300; three cost $270. Most agents order a duty badge and a spare; a third for a partner or an ID-card set makes the whole order cheaper. To price a badge to your own artwork, use our full-custom manufacturing price calculator.
Badges by Role
Which bounty hunter badge does each role carry?
Bail and recovery work has titles rather than ranks, and the badge is worded for the title on the state license or agency registration. Gold is the common finish for licensed principals and agents; silver for team members. Every row below is a title-panel change on the same mold.
| Role | Typical finish | Typical shape | Who carries it | Ordered when |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bounty Hunter (licensed) | Gold or silver | 5- or 6-point star, eagle-top | Independent licensed agents | State license issued |
| Bail Recovery Agent | Gold | Star, shield | Agents working under a bondsman’s contract | Contract with a bail agency |
| Fugitive Recovery Agent | Gold or silver | Star, eagle-top | Agents using the recovery title — see the fugitive recovery page | License or agency hire |
| Skip Tracer | Silver | Oval, flat | Locators who do not make apprehensions | Agency hire |
| Bond Recovery Agent | Gold | Star | Recovery staff employed by a surety | Surety contract |
| Apprehension Team Lead | Gold | Eagle-top | Leads a recovery team; often carries a distinct title panel | Team formation |
| Surety Recovery Agent | Gold | Star, shield | Agents retained by a surety company | Surety appointment |
| Agency Owner | Gold | Eagle-top | The licensed principal of a recovery agency | Agency license |
A bounty hunter ID card ordered with the badge completes the credential set most states expect. Bounty hunter badges are almost always single or small orders — one agent, or a team of five to ten — and every one is verified.
Licensing and badge rules for bail and recovery work vary by state — some states license bounty hunters, some register bail enforcement agents, and a few prohibit or restrict the use of a badge in this work. We verify your state license or agency registration before production, and the badge is worded for your role (BOUNTY HUNTER, BAIL ENFORCEMENT AGENT, FUGITIVE RECOVERY AGENT) and never as a police or sheriff badge. See our state-by-state guide to bounty hunter badge laws before you order.
Replacements
How do I replace a lost, stolen or worn bounty hunter badge?
A replacement bounty hunter badge costs $150 and is struck from your original mold if Owl Badges made it — the mold is retained free, so it comes back identical, with no setup fee and no minimum. Production runs 8 to 14 weeks. License or registration is re-verified before any replacement enters production.
If we made your original
Reference your order number; finish, title panel, number and state match exactly.
If another maker made it
Send photos of the front and back plus your title and license number; our design team reproduces the pattern and the new mold stays on file free.
A new license, state or agency
A new license number, a second state or a move to a new agency is a title-panel change on the same mold — order it as a reorder and keep the original as the spare.
Lost or stolen
Report it to your licensing board if the state requires it, then reorder; we can retire the number and issue the replacement under a new one.

Specs, Carry & Care
Bounty Hunter Badge Specs, Carry and Care
A bounty hunter badge is carried in a credential case with the state license and ID card, shown on contact and never worn as a uniform badge; the specifications below keep it legible, lawful and durable in the field. A single custom bounty hunter badge is $150 with no setup fee and no minimum.
Bounty hunter badge specifications
| Shapes & sizes | Five-, six- or seven-point star 3″ × 3″ · Eagle-top shield 2.5″ × 3.46″ · Oval 2.25″ × 3.13″. Star and eagle-top are the recovery conventions; an oval reads less like a police badge where the state prefers that. |
| Materials | Die-struck from raw brass, nickel silver, or zinc alloy — solid metal, never plastic. |
| Finishes | Gold (principals and licensed agents), silver (team members), two-tone, antique. |
| Enamel | Hard or soft enamel center, color-matched to the agency emblem. |
| Personalization | BOUNTY HUNTER or the exact licensed title, agent name, agency, license number, state. No state, county or municipal seal — an agency emblem or a generic eagle or star center instead. |
| Backing options | Wallet clip standard for credential-case carry; safety pin or belt clip on request. |
| Price | $150 for one; $90 at three; $80 at ten. |
| Minimum order | None. |
| Setup / mold fees | None — mold retained free. |
| Production time | 8–14 weeks. |
| Verification | State license or agency registration confirmed before production; wording never implies police authority. |
| Origin | US-based manufacturer since 1999. |
How it is carried
| Backing | Where it is carried | Order it for |
|---|---|---|
| Wallet clip | Credential case with the license and ID card. | The default — shown on contact, not worn. |
| Belt clip | Belt, when identification must be visible during an apprehension. | Field agents, where the state allows displayed credentials. |
| Safety pin | Outer carrier or jacket. | Team operations; some agencies prohibit it to avoid a police appearance. |
| Neck chain (case) | Case on a chain during a recovery. | Team leads and field agents. |
Care
| Finish or situation | Do this | Never do this |
|---|---|---|
| Everyday | Dry microfiber; mild soap on the cloth for heavier soil, then dry. | Soak the badge. |
| Gold or antique | Microfiber only; antique darkening is the finish. | Metal polish. |
| Enamel center | Barely damp cloth along the raised lines. | Ultrasonic cleaners and solvents. |
| Case carry | Fabric- or leather-backed case; check the clip seam monthly. | A bare metal backing plate. |
| Vehicle storage | Case in the console, not loose in a door pocket. | Loose with keys or tools. |
