For applying gestational carriers

Journey to Surrogacy

A gestational carrier supported during her journey

A Supported Journey

Becoming a surrogate is one of the most generous decisions a woman can make — and it’s not one to take lightly. Carrying a child for someone else asks for your time, your body, and your heart, and the impact on the family you help is immeasurable.

Because so much is entrusted to our surrogates, we care for them just as deeply. Every carrier is supported by genetic and wellness screening, maternal health and nutrition monitoring, and a dedicated team — through pregnancy and beyond.

Healthy physical and mental standing, with a BMI under 32

Surrogate Compensation

Base Pay: $35,000–$55,000

Paid in monthly installments across your pregnancy, beginning once a heartbeat is confirmed. Your base reflects your experience as a surrogate and the state you live in; first-time and experienced carriers are compensated differently.

Allowances

On top of your base pay, monthly allowances cover the everyday realities of surrogacy: a monthly stipend, maternity clothing, childcare and housekeeping support during bed rest, and travel to appointments.

Procedures

Additional compensation for key medical milestones, such as embryo transfer and any invasive procedure or C-section, should one be needed.

Reimbursements

Every out-of-pocket expense tied to your journey is reimbursed — co-pays, prescriptions, mileage, and lost wages for you or your partner. Submit a receipt and we handle the rest. You should never pay out of pocket to be a surrogate.
