How Does Donor Pay Work at ABO Plasma?
For new donors, the first-time donor bonus is activated for the first four donations in the first month.
These first four donations are expected to pay you the highest compensation.
If you choose to donate a maximum of eight times during your first month, the last four donations will pay a standard amount.
Return donors get compensated higher the more frequently they donate within the same month. Gradually, with each donation, return donor pay will grow, until you reach the maximum of eight donations or next month begins.
Additionally, return donors can earn more by referring friends and family.
How Much Does ABO Plasma Pay New Donors?
In August 2023, a new donor reported that he earned $425 for his first four donations.
The breakdown from the first donation to the fourth donation paid $100, $125, $100, and $100, respectively.
While location plays a big role in how much your local ABO Plasma may pay, the typical new donor can expect to earn up to $600 during their first month.
Overall, ABO Plasma pays their first-time donors less than most plasma centers.
How Much Does ABO Plasma Pay Returning Donors?
While every location pays return donors differently, each ABO Plasma appears to pay its returning donors on an incremental basis.
For example, a return donor’s first donation of the month may pay $45, and gradually increase until they earn $100 per donation on their eighth donation of the month.
In 2023, an ABO Plasma donor shared that they donated eight times and were paid $45, $45, $45, $45, $60, $60, $100, $100, respectively, for a total of $500 earned.
While earning $500 a month is an excellent rate, this is definitely not typical and reflects the absolute highest level of compensation you can earn.
ABO Plasma pays their return donors based on donor weight and the volume of plasma donated per session.
One donor shared that their local ABO Plasma pays donors $20 if they weigh under 140 pounds. Another donor shared that they average about $330 a month as a consistent ABO plasma donor.
Overall, you can expect to earn around $300–$400 as a return donor at ABO Plasma.
How Much Does Do Referral Pay?
ABO Plasma isn’t very transparent about how much referrals can earn you.
It’s been reported that during promotional months, the highest referral bonuses can earn you $100 per person that you refer who successfully completes two plasma donations.
During the majority of the year, the typical referral bonus can be estimated at about $50 per referral.
Does ABO Plasma Have A Loyalty Program?
No, currently ABO Plasma does not have a loyalty or rewards program for their return donors.
Is Donating Plasma At ABO Plasma Worth It?
When comparing ABO Plasma with other plasma centers, it ranks near the bottom overall for new and returning donors.
The new donor compensation can be as much as $100 less for a first-time donor’s first month.
The returning donors also don’t have a huge incentive for consistently donating their plasma, especially if they weigh under 140 pounds.
While the compensation is a bit lackluster, ABO Plasma shines with their positive donor reviews. Donating plasma can be painful, uncomfortable and traumatizing if not done correctly and professionally. At ABO Plasma, it appears they are well equipped to give you a high-quality experience.
For this reason, we recommend ABO Plasma for donors who don’t prioritize earnings as much, but still want to make a positive impact to people in need.
