Our commitments to diversity, equity and inclusion
A diverse workforce, a commitment to equity and an inclusive culture—are all a part of our path to success. As individual team members and together as a business, we’re taking critical next steps to embed DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) into our DNA.


Diversity
We’re committed to recognizing and valuing all differences—races, ethnicities, genders and identities, religions, ages, sexual orientations, abilities, socioeconomic statuses and backgrounds. Because embracing our unique perspectives helps us better deliver innovative solutions.

Equity
We aspire to give all our team members what they need to thrive—through fair treatment, access and advancement. It’s something we work on each and every day.

Inclusion
We’re a company where everyone is encouraged to be their authentic selves. That’s how we create a culture we’re all proud to be part of.

Thoughts from our leaders
Diversity, equity and inclusion guide our thinking and our actions. The only way we can make a difference in the world is if everyone’s included.
We joined the CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion™—a CEO-driven commitment to advance DEI in the workplace.

“Championing DEI benefits everyone. It makes us a better business—more alert to empathy, problem-solving and innovation. All traits we thrive on.”

“You can have the most diverse workforce in the world, but if your team members do not feel seen, valued, respected and included in the success of the company, it will limit your ability to succeed. With an inclusive and diverse workforce, the possibilities are endless.”

“At Global Payments, we want our team members to experience a genuine sense of belonging and feel accepted and included. We encourage diverse perspectives and believe our inclusive behaviors are critical for creating innovative solutions.”
Employee resource groups—the heartbeat of our mission
Our employee resource groups are based on more than shared interests—their strategic plans and goals are a vital link with those of the organization. Our ERGs provide essential collaboration, insights and feedback on key initiatives, and they’re instrumental in creating the next generation of diverse leaders making an impact.

Our Onyx Network brings together Black team members to build a more inclusive environment that extends beyond Global Payments and throughout our industry. We celebrate cultural differences and spread awareness of the opportunities and issues facing the Black community.

Our Global Payments Pride Network supports the professional development of LGBTQIA+ team members through helping us recruit and retain more great colleagues, all while building a valuable LGBTQIA+ community.

Somos Network is a culturally and racially diverse collective of Spanish, Latin and Hispanic team members and allies. We elevate one another and help Global Payments navigate how we expand our footprint to create a more diverse marketplace.

Our Veteran's Network recognizes the unique sacrifices of our veterans and their families—through inclusion and hiring, by fostering connections among veteran team members, and by supporting veteran-related organizations and events.

We offer professional development, networking, volunteering and opportunities for women through the Global Payments Women’s Network.
We’re also proud sponsors of PayTech Women, a professional organization for the advancement of women in payments.
