Refundable Reimbursement Security Deposit

Protecting Reimbursements. Protecting Everyone.

Every surrogacy journey involves eligible expenses that may continue to arise throughout pregnancy and, in some circumstances, shortly after delivery.

To help ensure that approved surrogate reimbursements can be paid promptly and that outstanding expenses are properly addressed before a journey is financially closed, True Match Surrogacy requires a $2,500 CAD Refundable Reimbursement Security Deposit.

$2,500 CAD | Refundable Security Deposit

The deposit is held in escrow throughout the journey and serves as financial security for eligible and approved surrogate reimbursement expenses.

It is not an additional agency fee and does not represent compensation or payment to the surrogate.

Once the journey is complete and all eligible reimbursement obligations have been satisfied, any remaining balance is returned to the intended parents.

Held securely. Used only when necessary. Remaining funds returned to you.

Why Is a Security Deposit Required?

Surrogate reimbursements do not necessarily end immediately upon delivery. Final expenses, receipts, lost-wage claims or other eligible costs may still need to be submitted, reviewed and paid after the birth.

The Refundable Reimbursement Security Deposit provides a financial safeguard during this final period.

Rather than risk an approved reimbursement remaining unpaid after other journey funds have been depleted or accounts are being closed, the $2,500 deposit remains available until the final eligible expenses have been processed.

This helps protect the surrogate while also providing intended parents with a clear and transparent process for financially closing their journey.

How the Deposit Works

Step 1 | Fund the Security Deposit

The intended parents provide a $2,500 CAD Refundable Reimbursement Security Deposit, which is held in escrow for the duration required under the applicable agreements.

Step 2 | Deposit Remains in Escrow

The funds remain reserved as security while the journey progresses.

The deposit is not treated as agency revenue and is not automatically paid to the surrogate.

Step 3 | Outstanding Approved Expenses Are Paid

At the end of the journey, any eligible surrogate reimbursement expenses that remain properly approved and outstanding may be paid from the security deposit in accordance with the applicable surrogacy and escrow arrangements.

For example, if $600 in approved expenses remains outstanding, $600 may be released from the deposit to satisfy those expenses.

Step 4 | Remaining Balance Is Returned

Once all eligible reimbursement obligations have been satisfied and the reimbursement period has closed, the remaining escrow balance is returned to the intended parents.

Using the example above:

Original Deposit: $2,500 CAD
Approved Outstanding Reimbursements: $600 CAD
Refund to Intended Parents: $1,900 CAD

If no approved expenses remain outstanding, the full $2,500 CAD is returned.

Transparency Throughout the Process

The purpose of the security deposit is straightforward: to ensure there are sufficient funds available to satisfy legitimate reimbursement obligations before the journey is financially closed.

Any amount withdrawn from the deposit must relate to an eligible and approved reimbursement expense in accordance with the applicable agreements and reimbursement requirements.

The deposit is not a discretionary fund and is not intended to create additional compensation for a surrogate.

Security Deposit vs. Agency Fee

Agency Fee

The agency fee compensates True Match Surrogacy for the professional services, recruitment, matching, coordination and support provided throughout the surrogacy journey.

Refundable Reimbursement Security Deposit

The $2,500 CAD security deposit is separate from the agency fee.

It is held in escrow as security against eligible outstanding surrogate reimbursements and remains refundable to the intended parents to the extent it is not required to satisfy approved expenses.

Agency Fee = Payment for True Match services

Security Deposit = Refundable funds reserved for approved surrogate expenses

Closing Your Journey Responsibly

Our responsibility to a surrogacy journey doesn’t end the moment a baby is born. There may still be final expenses to reconcile and reimbursement obligations to complete.

The Refundable Reimbursement Security Deposit helps ensure those final responsibilities are handled properly while protecting intended parents from paying more than is legitimately required.

Refundable Security Deposit: $2,500 CAD

Held in escrow until final reimbursements are completed.

Approved outstanding expenses are deducted.

The remaining balance is returned to the intended parents.

Important Deposit Information

The $2,500 CAD Refundable Reimbursement Security Deposit is not an agency fee and does not constitute compensation or automatic payment to a surrogate. It is held in escrow as security for eligible surrogate reimbursement obligations.

Funds may be released from the deposit only for eligible and approved reimbursement expenses in accordance with the applicable surrogacy agreement, reimbursement policies and escrow arrangements.

Once the applicable reimbursement period has ended and all approved expenses have been paid, any remaining balance is returned to the intended parents.

Surrogate reimbursements in Canada are subject to applicable Canadian law, including requirements concerning eligible expenditures and supporting documentation. The precise administration, release and return of funds is governed by the applicable agreements and escrow terms.
