This compensation can uplift your family’s future—whether it’s paying off debt, buying a car, saving for a home, or simply creating financial peace of mind.
Pre-Pregnancy Compensation
Before pregnancy begins, you’ll be reimbursed and compensated for your time and commitment with:
- $2,500 or more in stipends for screening clearance, embryo transfer, and non-accountable monthly allowances.
You’ll never pay out of pocket for medical or screening bills—these are fully covered by your Intended Parents and the health insurance plan they provide for you.
Do you already have surrogacy-friendly health insurance? That often means an even higher base pay for you!
Pregnancy Compensation
Once you’re pregnant, your base pay is paid out in monthly installments:
- $2,000 after the first confirmation of fetal heartbeat.
- Then, the rest of your base pay is paid out in 8 equal monthly payments.
You’ll also receive a Monthly Stipend to cover essentials like:
- Healthy food and prenatal vitamins.
- Mileage for local appointments.
- Childcare during appointments.
- Pregnancy-related supplies like maternity clothes, lotions, or pillows.
Just like your base compensation, this stipend is designed to support your wellbeing—no receipts or tracking required!
Post-Pregnancy & Additional Compensation
Your total compensation package—your base pay + generous stipends—reflects the incredible gift you’re giving. Depending on your journey, you may be eligible for even more:
- $5,000 for an initial embryo transfer with Intended Parents who have fewer than three embryos available (our Under Three Program).
- $1,000 for each additional embryo transfer, if needed.
- $3,000 if a C-section is necessary.
- Lost Wages will be reimbursed at their actual rate for pregnancy-related absences.
Plus, additional support and coverage for unique circumstances:
- Full bed rest coverage, including lost wages and childcare/housekeeping support.
- Partner support compensation, if they need time off to care for you.
- Four weeks of post-delivery recovery for vaginal delivery and eight weeks for a C-section delivery.
