Ecommpay launches free e-commerce fraud defence guide

February 26, 2026

Global inclusive payments platform, Ecommpay, is getting behind the 2026 theme for International Women’s Day – Give to Gain. Payments and FinTech professionals are invited to attend a unique in-person event at K&L Gates’ offices in London to share knowledge and experience.

“International Women’s Day provides the essential focus on the issues facing women in all walks of life,” explained Miranda McLean, Chief Marketing Officer, Ecommpay. “Inclusivity in payments is a driving mission for Ecommpay and we’re excited to provide a forum for FinTech and Payments professionals to come together to discuss some of the big challenges that need to be overcome so that women can achieve stronger outcomes across their careers, business and life.”

Alongside European Women Payments Network (EWPN) , K&L Gates and Women of FinTech , industry leaders, founders, and professionals will be able to examine the leadership and financial barriers to building and scaling businesses and careers in a series of discussions:

  • Money, Power & Access — Financial Inclusion as a Foundation: Exploring how payments, access to capital, and economic independence underpin women’s equality, leadership, and long-term opportunity.
  • Give to Gain — Purpose, Partnerships & Shared Growth: Examining how corporates, founders, and charities can work together to embed inclusion, mentorship, and impact into business models to create compounding value for individuals and communities.
  • The Juggle Is Real — Careers, Care & Generational Inclusion: An honest discussion on how workplaces and financial systems must evolve to better support women across different life stages, from entry-level to leadership.

Innovative women’s health business, Peachaus, will also be providing bra fitting expertise at the event, underlining a key issue affecting women's productivity and confidence. Peachaus is on a mission to fit 1 million women in the UK by 2030 by bringing bra fitting, where women are, in corporate offices.
