FAQs About Surrogate
Compensation

What's included in my compensation package?

You'll receive base pay (think of that as your "salary"), as well as bonuses for milemarkers pre-pregnancy, during pregnancy, and post-pregnancy. We've built this compensation package so that you are consistently supported on your journey.

When will I get Paid?

Base pay begins when pregnancy is confirmed. But don't worry — we've built our compensation timeline so that you'll start receiving pre-pregnancy bonuses much earlier than that!

Do experienced surrogates get paid more?

Yes! Experienced surrogates earn higher compensation. You're already proven your ability to carry a healthy pregnancy as a surrogate. That sort of experience is invaluable, and many intended parents are looking for someone just like you.

What could I do with my pay?

Start a college fund for your kids, pay down debt, take your family on that dream vacation — the possibilities are nearly endless. You can do whatever you'd like with the pay you earn. You deserve recognition for this incredible act of service, and you can use it to make life better for your family.
