How much does an egg donor cost?
What 10 egg banks and 20 egg donor agencies post as their own prices, side by side: frozen donor eggs by the lot and by the egg, what each bank guarantees, and what a fresh donor costs through an agency.
- Updated monthly · checked 22 h ago
Frozen donor eggs from an egg bank cost $17,900–$24,500 for a lot of 6 to 8 eggs at the 8 US banks that post a fixed price (about $2,313–$3,650 per egg); Fairfax EggBank's programs start at $16,350 and A.EggBank sells 8 eggs from donors in Ukraine for $11,740. With the treatment, clinics post $23,250 plus medications to about $40,000. A fresh donor through an agency costs more: agency fees of $9,000–$13,000, $10,000 for a first-time donor at 10 of 17 agencies, and $21,000–$35,300 and up in agencies' own estimates before the IVF cycle itself.
What 10 egg banks charge, side by side
Each bank's own posted price for its basic lot of frozen eggs, read on its website on 2026-10-07, listed alphabetically. The price per egg divides a bank's price by its own egg count, so lots of 6 and 8 eggs compare fairly.

The clinic's part. None of these estimates include the IVF cycle the donor goes through at your clinic (her medications, monitoring and retrieval) or creating and transferring the embryos. Cofertility estimates those clinic costs at $20,000 or more, plus $5,000 or more for the embryos (its pricing page), and Spring Fertility estimates a whole cycle with a designated donor at $60,000 to $80,000 (its donor eggs page).

The donor's pay. No US authority sets a dollar figure: ASRM's ethics opinion says compensation should be fair and not an undue enticement, and New York's health department says payment is for the donor's time, effort and discomfort, not for the eggs, and should not depend on the outcome. (ASRM Ethics Committee: financial compensation of oocyte donors (2021), New York State Department of Health: becoming an egg donor)

Common questions about egg donor cost
How much does an egg donor cost?
It depends on the path. Frozen eggs from an egg bank: A lot of 6 to 8 frozen donor eggs costs $17,900 to $24,500 at the 8 US egg banks that post a fixed price, about $2,313 to $3,650 per egg, and clinics that sell frozen donor eggs with the treatment post $23,250 plus medications to about $40,000 all in. A fresh donor through an agency: agency fees from $9,000 to $13,000 (up to $17,500 at Ivy Surrogacy) at the 15 agencies that post one as a fee, $10,000 for a first-time donor at 10 of the 17 that post donor pay, and agencies' own estimates of $21,000 to $35,300 and up before the IVF itself, which your clinic bills on top. Prices were read on each party's own page on 2026-10-07.
How much do frozen donor eggs cost?
A lot of 6 to 8 frozen donor eggs costs $17,900 to $24,500 at the 8 US egg banks that post a fixed price, about $2,313 to $3,650 per egg. Fairfax EggBank's programs start at $16,350 and A.EggBank sells 8 eggs from donors in Ukraine for $11,740. Most lots come with a guarantee of at least one blastocyst. The clinic's fees to thaw, fertilize and transfer are extra unless the bank bundles them.
How much does a fresh egg donor cycle cost?
Agencies' own estimates before any IVF start at $21,000 to $35,300 (agency fee, the donor's pay, legal, escrow, insurance and travel). The IVF is billed by your clinic on top: Cofertility estimates $20,000 or more for the donor's medical protocol, medications and retrieval, plus $5,000 or more to create the embryos, and Spring Fertility estimates a cycle with a designated donor at $60,000 to $80,000 all in.
How much does an egg donor get paid?
10 of the 17 agencies that post donor pay start first-time donors at $10,000; others start between $5,000 and $10,000, and repeat donors are paid more. No US authority sets a dollar figure: ASRM's ethics opinion says compensation should be fair and not an undue enticement, and New York's health department says payment is for the donor's time, effort and discomfort, not for the eggs, and should not depend on the outcome.
What does an egg donor agency charge?
Its own fee starts at $9,000 to $13,000 (up to $17,500 at Ivy Surrogacy) at the 15 agencies that post one as a fee, for finding and screening the donor and coordinating the cycle. Some agencies bundle legal, escrow and insurance into a single program price instead.
Are frozen donor eggs cheaper than a fresh donor?
Usually. A frozen lot costs $17,900 to $24,500 at US banks with a fixed price, and frozen cycles priced with the treatment run $23,250 plus medications to about $40,000; a fresh donor's agency costs alone are $21,000 and up before the IVF cycle she needs. A fresh cycle usually yields more eggs, which is part of what the higher price buys.
What does an egg bank guarantee?
Most US egg banks guarantee at least one blastocyst per lot and replace the lot if it does not develop one; some sell stronger guarantees for more, such as a chromosomally normal (PGT-A-passed) embryo or a refund if there is no baby. Each bank's terms are in its entry above.
Are there grants that help pay for donor eggs?
A few. Of the 22 fertility grant programs we track, 10 name donor eggs or sperm among the costs they pay for: Baby Quest Foundation, Tinina Q. Cade Foundation Family Building Grant, Gift of Parenthood, Journey to Parenthood grant, Hopeful Mama Grant, Men Having Babies Gay Parenting Assistance Program (GPAP), Chicago Coalition for Family Building grants, Nest Egg Foundation IVF grant, BIVF Foundation Financial Assistance Grant, Stardust Fertility Foundation grant. Awards are competitive and several are limited to particular states, clinics or groups.
