WorldPay is fully woke.

WorldPay’s Values

Are They Yours Too?

Companies are careful to take stances on controversial issues so when they do take a stand, you can be sure they are committed to it. Worldpay is committed to the LGBTQ+ movement. Worldpay was wholly owned by FIS until February 2024 when FIS sold 55% of its stake in the company.[1] You will see that FIS has been celebrated as an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community and Worldpay has carried on that tradition. Furthermore, “FIS supports transnational doctrines concerning fundamental human rights, including the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.”[2] We’ve exposed abortion and gender identity as part of the UN’s definition of Human Rights. (See Blackbaud Article)[3]

Corporate support for UN efforts to expand abortion access kills unborn children.

Can You Support Abortion as a Human Right?

The United Nations (UN) has recognized access to reproductive healthcare as a fundamental human right. This includes the right to access family planning services, safe and legal abortion services, and other reproductive health services.

In 1994, the UN International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) affirmed the right of all individuals to have access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare services. The ICPD Program of Action stated that “reproductive rights embrace certain human rights that are already recognized in national laws, international human rights documents, and other consensus documents.”[4]

Does Worldpay’s Encouragement and Support of the LGBTQ+ Community Use Your Money in the Way You Would?

2021 was the fourth consecutive year, FIS, the owner of Worldpay was named a Best Place to Work for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) equality by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. John Eagle, the Chief Audit Executive and executive sponsor for the LGBTQ+ Inclusion Network at FIS wants you to know that “This recognition is an important signal to our clients, colleagues, and communities regarding our commitment to inclusion and diversity.”[5]

Worldpay says, “We champion and celebrate our LGBTQ+ colleagues, customers, and communities.” [6]

“The Company is also committed to robust human capital management practices, including driving high levels of employee engagement, investing in talent development, and fostering diversity and inclusion.”[7]

Unlike WorldPay, Pro-Life Payments chooses to side with the infallible Word of God on these important issues.

In 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, Paul warns that those who persist in sin will not inherit the kingdom of God. In his list of wrongdoers, he includes two Greek words that connect to some forms of same-sex behavior.

“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (malakoi), nor abusers of themselves with mankind (arsenokoitai), nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
