Ecommpay shortlisted for three Women in Tech Employer Awards

Ecommpay has been named as a finalist in three categories at the 2025 Women in Tech Employer Awards, in recognition of its leadership’s commitment to inclusion and the ongoing work to increase accessibility of its website.

Chief Compliance Officer and UK Chair, Willem Wellinghoff is nominated for Outstanding Advocate for Women in Tech – Male Ally, while Chief Marketing Officer, Miranda McLean, is shortlisted for Outstanding Advocate for Women in Tech. The company’s recent overhaul of its website and payments platform, to drastically increase accessibility, was chosen by equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) expert judges as a finalist for Best Initiative of the Year.

Winners will be announced at a black-tie drink reception, three-course meal and awards event at the London Hilton Park Lane, on Tuesday 11th November 2025.

“Ecommpay is on a mission to achieve financial inclusivity for all, a momentous change that requires significant investment that relies on commitment from the very top,” commented Miranda McLean, Chief Marketing Officer, Ecommpay. “Our entire leadership team is focused on increasing inclusivity by making our services, and those of our clients, accessible to anyone. We are therefore extremely proud to have been recognised by Women in Tech and look forward to celebrating the achievements with other EDI-focused businesses at the ceremony.”

"For European banks watching this development, the lesson isn't about charging for basic compliance - that ship has sailed. Instead, it's about finding creative ways to monetise the digital infrastructure they've built while staying within regulatory boundaries. The future lies in premium services and embedded banking, not gatekeeping basic data access."
