Yes! Egg donors are compensation regardless of the outcome of their egg retrieval. Even if the intended parents are left with no embryos, the egg donor will still receive her compensation.

In addition to egg donor pay, women will receive additional benefits during their journey. It's important to note: egg donors will never pay anything during an egg donation journey. All costs and expenses will be covered by the intended parents.
