Powering innovation through inclusion
Global Payments is committed and focused on creating a better tomorrow in our workplaces and communities. Empowering commerce for all means we’re always working towards a more diverse, equitable and inclusive culture than the day before. Because true innovation is best delivered with all perspectives reflected.
DIVERSITY
Champions of diversity
We’re committed to recognizing and valuing our team members—all races, ethnicities, genders and identities, religions, ages, sexual orientations, abilities, socioeconomic status and backgrounds.
EQUITY
Building a fair and equitable workplace
We aspire to give our team members what they need to thrive—fair treatment, access and advancement. It's something we work on each and every day.
INCLUSION
A culture of inclusion and belonging
We encourage our team members to be authentic—creating a culture of belonging we are proud to be part of.
Taking action
Global Payments is a proud participant in the CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion™—a CEO-driven commitment to advance DEI in the workplace.
“We are an organization that respects, honors and celebrates the diversity
of our team members and the differences among us. There are always
more ways to hold ourselves accountable when it comes to creating a
more inclusive and equitable culture. We will never stop adapting to the
ever-evolving needs of our people.”

People
Our team—people who make a difference
We’re taking critical next steps to ensure our workforce reflects the diversity of the markets we serve. A more diverse workforce is how we start, and it doesn't end there. Our journey is about making sure everyone feels valued for the unique perspectives they bring to the table.
“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.”
David Green
SEVP, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary
