Our Refer a Friend programme
We value when our donors refer friends to become donors at European Sperm Bank. When a friend visits us for the first time, he informs us that he has been referred. The only thing he needs to provide is the phone number of the friend referring him.
Once he has completed all samples required to determine his sperm quality, the donor will receive €300. This can be 1-4 samples. If the friend is not approved as a donor, the donor will still receive a referral bonus.
Our donors can refer up to two friends per month.

If you can, help those who can’t
Becoming a sperm donor is a powerful way to make a difference. Every donation has the potential to help others create the family they’ve always wanted.
More and more children around the world are born thanks to fertility treatment. Many of them with the help from a sperm donor.
