Surrogacy Costs: Journey Protection Guarantee Program

Our all-inclusive Journey Protection Guarantee Program offers parents something other agencies can't: a single, fixed cost for their surrogacy journey – no matter what happens – plus a refund of 100% of our agency expenses if you have no embryos remaining and you do not bring home a baby.

Guaranteed to keep surrogacy costs affordable

The Journey Protection Guarantee offers parents the most security and confidence for their surrogacy journey. Surrogacy costs can be expensive, and if intended parents hit a roadblock during their journey – a failed transfer or a miscarriage – they will be covered financially under our Journey Protection Guarantee.

With the Journey Protection Guarantee, Program Intended Parents will receive fixed prices on all Professional Fees, Gestational Carrier (surrogate) and Egg Donor Fees and Insurance Expenses – plus they will not incur any additional fees throughout their journey no matter how many retrievals, transfers or complications arise.

The Journey Protection Guarantee Program also includes the Circle Promise: if you run out of embryos and do not have a baby, Circle will refund 100% of our agency fee to you.

When Intended Parents know how much their surrogacy is going to cost prior to beginning their journey, they can have peace of mind financially, and focus on what's important: having a baby.

Our goal is to help as many intended parents as possible bring home a baby. Our surrogacy programs are designed to make that happen with as little uncertainty for parents as possible.

What's covered in the Journey Protection Guarantee Program costs?

Our cost plans are built to cover all of the necessities of a surrogacy journey....and even those that can be unexpected.

Intended parents can expect the following to be covered with Circle Surrogacy's cost programs:

  • All surrogate and egg donor screening
  • Surrogate and Egg Donor matching
  • Coordination of your journey
  • Maintenance of your Trust Account
  • Psychosocial support throughout your journey

Circle Surrogacy is one of the few – if not the only – surrogacy agency who does not have higher surrogacy costs for international intended parents.
