How much you get paid for donating plasma depends heavily on where you are, which center you go to, how often you donate, your body weight, and whether there are bonus/incentive programs.
Below are typical rates and some examples, mostly from the U.S., plus notes about other countries. If you tell me your country, I can try to find specific rates there.
đź’µ Typical Payment in the U.S.
Many centers pay about US$30 to US$70 per donation.
Some “new donor” bonuses can increase that, especially for the first few donations.
With frequent donations and bonuses, some people earn US$300–US$800/month, or even up to US$1,000/month in high‑frequency situations.
🔍 Example Rate Breakdown
One center had a schedule like this:
| Donation # | Amount Paid |
|---|---|
| 1st | US$50 |
| 2nd | US$50 |
| 3rd | US$60 |
| 4th‑8th | US$60 each |
| +Bonus for completing 8 donations in certain time frame | additional US$200 |
So in that case, doing eight donations plus the bonus could give you over US$700.

🌍 Outside the U.S.
In the UK, plasma donation is usually not paid in money — it’s voluntary. But some “incentives” or “compensation for time/travel” might exist depending on the center or region. (Note: policies vary by country)
In India, there have been situations (especially during COVID) where people offered large sums for plasma donations, but these are generally unofficial or private offers and may violate regulations. Always make sure the donation is legal and safe.
