If you are looking for a way to earn a little extra money, then you should really consider donating plasma. So let me tell you a little bit more about what that entails.

What Is Plasma?

Plasma is the liquid portion of our blood and makes up around 55% of our actual blood makeup. It helps the human body to maintain a healthy blood pressure, and it also helps the blood clot. It also helps distribute electrolytes to the muscles and supports normal cell functions by assisting the body maintain an appropriate pH balance.

How Does Donating Plasma Work?

Plasma is usually obtained by plasmapheresis. Where whole blood is drawn from your body, and the plasma portion is separated from the red blood cells. A fancy machine handles this whole process (with the help of a phlebotomist) and then the remaining blood cells are returned to your body, minus the plasma of course.

The first time you donate, it will take around 2 to 3 hours to complete the whole process. Mainly because the plasma center will give you a short physical beforehand to make sure you are good to donate. After that initial physical, you will only have to do a short screening prior to each donation and an annual physical at the center. Usually when I donate, it only takes about an hour for the whole donation process.

How Do You Get Paid For Donating Plasma?

Typically, you will receive a pre-paid debt card that works just like a regular debt card. After each donation, the payment will be added to the account within about an hour. The local plasma center should have the current monthly donation rates posted in the facility. My first six donations were covered under the new donor rate. I received $150 and then $100 for each pair of donations I made, totaling $750!

How Often Can You Donate Plasma?

You can donate twice in seven calendar days as long as there is a gap of 48 hours between the two donations. Most repeat donors donate twice a week and most plasma centers compensate you more for donating more. Right now, I am donating on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.

What Are The Requirements To Donate Plasma?

The requirements to donate plasma are quite simple, you need to –

Be between the age of 18 and 69.
