How It Works
Surrogates set their own compensation amount. Paid in 8 equal monthly installments beginning at heartbeat confirmation. Surrogate never pays out-of-pocket for anything surrogacy-related.
Industry-Leading Perks
$750K life insurance (3× the typical industry standard), $10,000 hysterectomy fee (highest we've seen), $4,000 milestone wellness package, and $5,000 C-section bonus. One of the strongest comp packages in the Southeast.
