Gestational Surrogate Compensation

Origo Surrogacy’s Philosophy

We advocate an all-inclusive Compensation Package. This means starting on the first of the month following confirmation of heartbeat by ultrasound; Gestational Surrogate will receive their compensation broken down into even payments paid on the 1st of the month, every month until paid in full. This allows our surrogates financial freedom to spend their funds as they see fit versus being required to come out of pocket or get pre-approval for necessary expenses.
