How Much Do Surrogates Get Paid?

Surrogate compensation is a complex and sometimes sensitive topic, and we believe that surrogates should receive fair compensation for the incredible time, commitment, and personal sacrifice they offer to help intended parents fulfill their dream of bringing home a child. For many intended parents, surrogacy represents a final, deeply meaningful opportunity to have a child who is biologically connected to them. The amazing individuals who choose to become surrogates deserve not only fair compensation but also compassion, care, and unwavering support throughout their journey of carrying a pregnancy to term.  

Surrogacy arrangements include compensation for the time, commitment and sacrifice made by a gestational carrier. Base compensation can range between $50,000 and $90,000+ depending on myriad factors and the experience of the surrogate, (additional benefits up to $13,000). 

  • First-time surrogates: Typically earn a base compensation between $55,000 and $70,000 for a surrogacy journey. 
  • Experienced surrogates: Typically earn a base compensation between $65,000 and $90,000+ for a surrogacy journey. 

 

Factors That Impact Surrogate Compensation 

  • Location: Some states have a higher cost of living and a competitive pool of surrogates which may increase the surrogate compensation rates. 
  • Milestones: Surrogates receive compensation based on milestones reached in a journey such as contract sign, medical screening, embryo transfer, confirmed pregnancy, first heartbeat and then monthly throughout the duration of the pregnancy.   

 

Extra Benefits

Total earnings extend beyond just the base compensation! Surrogates can receive monthly allowances and supplemental financial support to cover pregnancy related expenses including travel, meals, childcare expenses, maternity clothes, and help at home benefits to help with responsibilities like housekeeping.
