What is Surrogate Compensation and How Does it Work?

Surrogacy is such an exciting time! You are helping others build their families and make their dreams of parenthood come true. Many women are drawn to surrogacy because it gives their lives a deeper and more profound meaning. In addition to feeling fulfilled, surrogates receive financial compensation that can help save for their children’s college tuition, make a down payment on a home or car, invest in their future, and achieve financial stability.

If you are considering becoming a surrogate, it's important to understand how surrogate compensation and benefits work. The information here provides and overview but, remember, the best way to learn about your individual surrogate compensation is to speak with an experienced surrogacy professional.

What is the Base Compensation for a Surrogate?

A surrogate’s base compensation depends on several factors including where a surrogate is located (in some instances), whether she is a first-time or experienced surrogate, whether she has surrogate-friendly insurance, the agency she is with, and other factors, but these are the main ones. At Creative Conception, Inc, the base payment for a first-time surrogate is approximately $50,000 regardless of where she lives, and for experienced surrogates, the base pay is between $55,000 - $65,000 regardless of where she lives.
