      Storing your order and reservations

      You can reserve sperm straws in our storage unit until you need them for the treatment of your patient. This way you can ensure enough straws throughout your patient’s treatment and for genetic siblings.   

      We offer a 75% refund of the original price of the straws if the reservation is cancelled.

      Placing a stock order  

      If your clinic has the possibility to store sperm straws at your clinic, we recommend that you order sperm straws for stock.  

      The advantages of placing a stock order:  

      • You will have “in stock” options for last minute appointments  
      • No risk of delayed orders  
      • Attractive prices  
      • Flexible payment schedule based on your needs  
      • Joint shipping and reduced shipping cost   

      Please contact our Clinic Account Team for more information about stock orders.  

      Quota Reservation

      A Quota Reservation (if applicable in your country) will automatically be added to your basket to ensure that the donor’s quota is not exceeded.   

      If you place a stock order, remember to calculate how many Quota Reservations you will need per donor. You can change the total amount of Quota Reservations in the check-out process. Learn more about Quota Reservations here.
