Unfortunately, I am American. I donated whole blood last week and received a $40 gift card, snacks and drinks! I think plasma donations pay up to $100 some places.
I agree with that for the plasma but the whole blood donation goes to the hospitals. The organization I donated for is a local non-profit that supplies the hospitals in my area!

You get paid because they’re selling the plasma to companies who make retail products with it.

Oh yeah, I donate whole blood too. There are legit places that are collecting blood in order to save lives.
But the plasma places are basically milking people to make cosmetics.
I’m not sure I have an explanation why, but getting paid for my blood makes it seem dirtier somehow lol
I’d pay for your bodily fluid any day ;)
