Compare plasma donation companies

The big plasma companies pay differently and cover different parts of the country. Here's how they stack up on published new-donor offers and on how many centers we track for each — 1190 in total. Pay varies by weight, location, and promotion, so treat the offers as a starting point and confirm with the center.

Kamada Plasma	not published	3	Kamada advertises up to $700 in a new donor’s first month on its general plasma-donation page, but every Kamada center we track is a specialty-programs-only center where compensation begins only after qualification and immunization. We do not apply the figure to individual centers. (source)

"Center count" is how many locations we currently track for each company, not the company's total footprint. "Not published" means the company advertises no dollar figure — some use points or per-visit rates set at the center.

Which company should you choose?

Best published new-donor offer: the top of the table above — but a big first-month number doesn't guarantee the best long-term returning-donor pay.
Coverage near you usually matters more than a $25 difference in advertised offer. Check what's actually close.
Points vs cash: some companies (e.g. KEDPLASMA) pay in loyalty points/gift cards rather than a headline dollar amount.
