Using a third-party escrow company offers peace of mind for both Intended Parents and Surrogates alike. The Gestational Carrier Agreement (GCA) will outline the financial obligations of the Intended Parents, including specific amounts. Ultimately, the escrow company is responsible for making sure the money is distributed on time and according to the terms in the GCA.
There are several escrow companies dedicated to serving Surrogates and Intended Parents. They streamline the process and include helpful services like scheduled compensation payments and direct deposit.
Heartland Surrogacy does not hold escrow in-house. If our clients are not already familiar with a company, we can provide a referral.
