Understanding Surrogate
Compensation & Fees
We believe in complete transparency, so you know exactly what's included and how surrogate compensation works, with no hidden surprises along the way.
Agency vs. Independent: While independent surrogacy may seem less expensive upfront, being an all-inclusive surrogacy agency, we provide the security, legal protection, and predictable timeline that independent arrangements often lack.
