International Women’s Day is more than just a celebration – it’s a moment to reflect on the resilience, achievements and ongoing challenges faced by women worldwide. From boardrooms to classrooms, women are shaping the future, breaking barriers and creating opportunities for the next generation.<\/p>
But progress doesn’t happen in just one day. Women continue to drive change every single day – whether leading businesses, educating communities or supporting loved ones from across the globe.<\/p>
Women leading change<\/h2>
Across industries, women are stepping into leadership roles and making their voices heard. Today, 29% of senior management positions worldwide are held by women, and that number continues to grow. From pioneering CEOs to heads of state, women are reshaping economies, influencing policies and driving innovation.<\/p>
Yet, many fields remain male-dominated – particularly in STEM \(Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics\). Globally, women make up just 28% of the STEM workforce, but that is changing. Initiatives encouraging girls to pursue careers in tech and science are helping to bridge the gap, ensuring that the next generation of women has the tools to lead in the digital economy.<\/p>
In entrepreneurship, women are also making waves. The number of female business owners has surged in recent years, contributing to economic growth and job creation. Despite facing challenges such as limited access to funding, women-owned businesses are proving to be powerful forces of innovation and community development.<\/p>
Empowering women through education<\/h2>
Education remains one of the most powerful tools for women’s empowerment. However, 130 million girls around the world are still out of school. The impact of education on women’s lives is immense – every additional year of schooling can increase a woman’s income by 10–20%, while also improving healthcare outcomes, reducing child marriage rates and boosting economic development.<\/p>
In many regions, grassroots organisations and global initiatives are working tirelessly to close this gap. Programs that provide scholarships, mentorship and career training are giving more women the chance to achieve financial independence and create brighter futures for themselves and their families.<\/p>
Women and global migration: supporting families across borders Women make up nearly 50% of international migrants worldwide. Whether moving for better job opportunities, education or to provide for their families, female migrants play a crucial role in global economies.<\/p>
One of the most significant ways women support their loved ones is through remittances – sending money home to help fund education, healthcare and daily essentials. In some countries, women are responsible for sending a higher percentage of their income back home compared to men, ensuring the well-being of their families despite being miles apart.<\/p>
For these women, financial security and reliable money transfer services are essential. Fast, affordable and secure transfers mean they can continue to provide for their families without worrying about high fees or delays.<\/p>

LONDON – 18 AUGUST 2022 – Paysend, the UK-based fintech with over 7 million customers, today announces the launch of Paysend Store for UK merchants. The free, no-code solution enables entrepreneurs in the UK to set up an online store and immediately start selling their products with no technology development or third-party IT integration required.
This follows the June launch of Paysend Business, an end-to-end payments solution that gives small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) the tools they need to send and accept payments globally. The addition of Paysend Store builds on Paysend’s portfolio of tools that help entrepreneurs to get their business off the ground, reach new customers and enter the e-commerce market.
Through Paysend Store, SMEs can do everything from create their website and fully customise their online store and product information to engage with their customer base through personalised promotions. Client orders can be seamlessly managed and performance analytics can help users to make informed decisions on how to grow the business. Additionally, through integration with Paysend Business users can access additional tools as well as utilise Paysend's payment gateways to accept payment methods such as credit cards, debit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay.
Ashley Mallett, Head of Business at Paysend, said:
“Previously, the online route to market for many entrepreneurs and SMEs was fragmented, complex and inefficient with business owners having to manage multiple separate elements of their e-commerce offering from website, design, marketing and payments processing as well as integration of those individual elements. Paysend Store removes that inefficiency and provides an easy-to-use one-stop-shop for UK SMEs to create, manage and grow their e-commerce business using a single platform.
With the added benefit of access to Paysend’s new Business solution, users of Paysend Store can access payments online in over 38 currencies and from over 190 countries globally, as well as next day settlement, multi-currency accounts and payouts to cards. These additional features provide SMEs with the tools to grow, scale globally and be more cost-effective in their operations while allowing them to focus on the most important thing of serving their customer needs and growing their business.”
Paysend is a next generation integrated global payment ecosystem, enabling consumers and businesses to pay and send money online anywhere, anyhow, and in any currency. Paysend is UK-based and has global reach having been created in April 2017 with the clear mission to change how money is moved around the world. Paysend currently supports cross-network operability globally across Mastercard, Visa, China UnionPay and local ACH and payment schemes, providing over 40 payment methods for online SMEs.
Paysend can send money to over 170 countries worldwide and has attracted more than seven million consumers to its platform. As a global end-to-end payment platform, Paysend has its own global network of banks and international and local payment systems and has partnerships with the major international card networks Visa, Mastercard and China Union Pay as a principal member and certified processor.
