Competitive Compensation
Surrogates help bring new life into the world and assist others in building a family. Though surrogates typically choose this process because of their desire to help other people, this journey takes significant time and effort.
The competitive compensation package that we offer to our surrogates recognizes their dedication to this cause and helps them defray the cost of surrogacy, including medical procedures, lost wages, travel, accommodations, legal fees, and other expenses that may arise along the way.
We ensure that our surrogates are adequately supported at every step of their journey with Surrogacy Company!
