What's the cost?
The full amount is £1,500 or £1,600 if you opt for our payment plan, as detailed below.
What does that give me?
The amounts quoted include vat, and cover:
- all the administration
- the collection kit box, this contains everything needed to collect your baby's umbilical cord blood stem cells and your blood sample
- a courier to transport the cord blood unit and maternal blood sample safely to our laboratory
- all the processing and testing required for both the cord blood unit and the maternal blood samples
- the kit and testing for the second maternal blood test
- storage of your baby's stem cells for 20 years.
Paying in one go
Paying in one go, is cheaper than opting for our payment plan.
Here's how it works:
- £300 when you register as a member
- £1,200 when the umbilical cord blood and first maternal blood samples are received by us for testing and processing
You can pay by credit card (Mastercard & Visa) or debit card (Visa Debit, Visa Electron, Maestro, Switch and Solo).
Our payment plan
Our payment plan allows you to spread the cost of storing your baby's cord blood. At £1,600 the total cost is £100 more than if you pay in one go, but allows you more time to pay. Here's how it works:
- £300 when you register as a member
- £400 when the umbilical cord blood and first maternal blood samples are received by us for testing and processing
- three instalments of £300 (£900 in total) every three months thereafter.
You can pay by credit card (Mastercard & Visa) or Visa Debit card.
