Rewarding Compensation and Benefits for Every Surrogate
At Bamboo Surrogacy, we offer competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package for our surrogates. Here’s a breakdown of what we typically offer.
Base Compensation:
Start from $55,000 Base + $10,000 Benefits Package for first-time non-California surrogates.
Start from $60,000 Base + $10,000 Benefits Package for first-time California surrogates.
Start from $85,000 base + $10,000 Benefits Package for repeat surrogates.
