Plasma donation pay centers have several requirements for those wanting to make money by donating their plasma. Before visiting a center, make sure you can meet them. You must be 18 years old, weigh at least 110 pounds, not had a tattoo or piercing in the last year, live within reasonable distance of the donation clinic (usually 125 miles or less), and photo identification. - 2

Plasma donation pay will range from anywhere from $20-40 for a visit ranging anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours. You can donate twice a week, making a nice side income. Virtually all blood banks pay in cash the same day. - 4

On your first visit seeking plasma donation pay, you will undergo a brief physical exam including drug screening. When you qualify, a needle will be placed into your arm at each visit, pulling the plasma out of your blood and leaving the red blood cells behind. You can typically read a book or listen to your iPod during a session, and the only discomfort usually occurs with needle insertion. There is no health risk with donating your plasma, and it literally helps save people's lives.
