We at OneWorld Generations know how critical it is to match surrogates as soon as possible. After completing our internal screening, we strive to match surrogates within around two weeks effectively. Keep in mind that a number of variables can affect how long it takes to find a surrogate match, such as the intended parents' preferences, your own needs and preferences, and the number of available matches in our program. The surrogates and intended parents can rest easy knowing that we work hard to connect them quickly and efficiently.

Surrogates and intended parents can decide how much contact they want to have based on their own choices and agreements. Through the course of the pregnancy, some intended parents and surrogates choose to keep in close touch with one another, while others prefer a more relaxed approach.

If problems arise throughout your pregnancy, the medical staff will help you and the baby. The surrogacy agreement should spell out the roles and duties of the intended parents in such cases, including providing emotional and financial support.

Standard Base Compensation

Base compensation for surrogates serves as the foundational payment for their invaluable role in the surrogacy process. This compensation typically reflects various factors, including the surrogate’s experience, location, and any specific medical or personal circumstances that may influence the arrangement. Establishing a fair base compensation is essential, as it not only acknowledges the surrogate’s commitment and sacrifices but also sets the tone for the overall compensation package.

We believe that each surrogate should have the opportunity to determine her own compensation. To provide a general guideline for base compensation, OneWorld Generations has outlined the following calculation rationale.

It’s important to note that, in addition to base compensation, surrogates will receive additional benefits, which are a significant part of the overall compensation package. For more information on the complete compensation structure at OneWorld Generations, please refer to here.
