By working with a professional surrogacy agency in Deephaven, Minnesota, you can be sure you are being compensated fairly for your generosity and the risk involved in carrying a baby. The compensation pays for your risk in carrying the pregnancy, and the sacrifice you are making in your own personal life to do it.
Surrogacy agencies all have different compensation models. At Hope Surrogacy, we allow our surrogates to set their own rates. The base compensation rate that we recommend surrogates request is between $35,000 and $40,000.
The surrogate also gets paid additional compensation based on a number of factors. That means that the total compensation a surrogate may receive is between $60,000 and $70,000.

Hope Surrogacy helps intended parents and surrogates throughout Minnesota navigate every step of the journey with personalized guidance and compassionate care.
Is surrogacy legal in Minnesota?
Yes. Minnesota does not have laws prohibiting gestational surrogacy, and courts commonly grant pre-birth parentage orders that recognize intended parents before a child is born. Hope Surrogacy works with experienced Minnesota reproductive attorneys to help ensure every journey follows current legal practices.
