Surrogate compensation
You will get up to $100,000+ to complete a surrogacy journey
What does surrogate compensation include?
Surrogate compensation breakdown vary across agencies, but basically includes base compensation and other benefits.
Base compensation is normally paid on a monthly basis after heartbeat is detected. Other benefits are paid before and after pregnancy. We intentionally design a compensation package to ensure our surrogates can be significantly compensated before getting pregnant, because we believe that all the efforts are worth to be fairly compensated, rather than heavily dependent on pregnancy outcome.

How can you know how much you will be compensated
Please contact us to ask for a detailed compensation structure specifically designed for you. Our professional team will go through the compensation details with you line by line, to ensure you understand how much and when you will get your compensation. After you sign with us, we will prepare a Standard Compensation Package for your review and sign off. The Standard Compensation Package will be embedded into the surrogacy agreement to be signed and notarized between you and intended parents.
How and when you will get paid?
All compensation details will be documented in your surrogacy agreement. The compensation is to be paid directly from escrow account which is normally managed by a third-party attorney. We will request intended parents to fund the escrow account to our required amount and always ensure that escrow account has sufficient balance before proceeding to next steps. You will be required to provide your account information to escrow holder so that you will get your compensation safely and timely.
