Experience the rewards of surrogacy with generous compensation, full support, and all expenses covered—join a journey that changes lives!
How are you compensated as a Surrogate
Surrogates set their own compensation, typically ranging from $60,000 to $85,000, based on various factors.
​
The journey starts with a thorough pre-screening for safety. Once cleared, surrogates set their preferences to match with aligned intended parents. All expenses, including travel and a daily allowance, are covered for the in-person medical evaluation with the parents' IVF doctor.
​
After medical clearance, the surrogate and intended parents agree on terms in a legal contract, with the surrogate's legal fees fully covered by the intended parents.
​
Compensation and benefits begin upon legal clearance.
