Same Love Surrogacy

What Same Love Surrogacy does

Same Love Surrogacy is a privately held, full-service surrogacy and egg donation agency founded in 2014 and headquartered in Los Angeles, California. The company primarily serves LGBTQ+ individuals and couples pursuing parenthood, and also serves heterosexual intended parents, egg donors, and gestational carriers. The agency operates through three US offices (Los Angeles, New York, and Portland) and pursues international inbound from European intended parents through conference participation in Berlin and partnership-driven social events in Paris.

The agency delivers end-to-end coordination across the surrogacy journey, including initial consultation with experienced counselors, matching intended parents with gestational carriers and egg donors, screening, legal and IVF clinic referrals, ongoing case management, and post-birth support. The underlying technology is a secure, internal matching database that surfaces surrogate and egg donor profiles (with medical history, family history, and photos) to matched intended parents. The agency maintains an integrated network of fertility clinic partners (Spring Fertility, San Diego Fertility Center, Nevada Fertility Center, SCRC IVF) and a long-standing relationship with the Men Having Babies non-profit. Total journey cost to intended parents is $130,000-$180,000, of which agency fees are a component alongside legal, medical, donor compensation, and IVF clinic costs. Egg donor compensation is set at $8,000 for first-time donors and $11,000+ for experienced donors, with $1,000 increments per subsequent cycle.

The business model is a professional services agency with separate fee structures for domestic and international intended parents, plus facilitation fees for egg donor matching. Distribution is sales-led and event-driven, with regional coordinators dedicated to specific geographies, conference presence (Men Having Babies, Wish For A Baby), and grassroots surrogate community events (pool parties, BBQs) for supply-side recruitment. The company is founder-owned, bootstrapped, and operates with a team of 11-50 employees, with notable recent team expansion in 2023 across IP coordination, surrogate administration, and regional coverage roles.
