This page explains the referral program for potential surrogate candidates. A referral does not guarantee candidate approval or a reward; eligibility, milestones, and payments depend on program review and professional screening.

What makes a strong surrogate referral?

Yunda's surrogate referral program is for people who know a woman who may be interested in becoming a gestational surrogate and wants a respectful, transparent review process. A referral is not treated as a guaranteed approval or guaranteed payment. Yunda first reviews whether the candidate may meet basic program expectations, then later steps can include medical records review, clinic clearance, psychological screening, legal review, insurance review, matching, transfer milestones, and pregnancy milestones. Referral rewards depend on the candidate reaching defined program stages and meeting the program terms. The best referral is someone who understands the journey, has a support system, and is willing to complete screening before any match moves forward.

Candidate care comes first

The referral path should help a potential surrogate understand requirements, pay, screening, and support before she decides whether to continue.

Rewards are milestone-based

Bonus language is tied to defined review and journey stages, so referrers know why a payment may happen later rather than immediately.

Screening protects everyone

A respectful referral still requires professional screening, legal review, insurance review, and candidate consent before a match can move forward.
