I’m pleased to share that I’ve been named as a finalist in the Women in PayTech Award category at the 2026 Payments Awards! Being included among this group of industry leaders is genuinely meaningful to me, and I’m grateful to the organizers for the recognition.

The Payments Awards celebrate excellence and innovation across the payments industry. Organizers spotlight the individuals and organizations pushing the ecosystem forward in meaningful ways; the Women in PayTech category, specifically, recognizes women who are driving change, shaping standards, and contributing to an industry that still has real ground to cover when it comes to diverse leadership.

As I mentioned, it’s an honor to be named alongside the other finalists in this category. It’s also a reminder of how much incredible work is being done by women across the payments space.

What makes this nomination particularly meaningful is the context surrounding it. Chargebacks911 has also been named a finalist in two additional categories: Merchant Anti-Fraud Solution of the Year and AI-Driven Fraud Prevention Platform of the Year. Taken together, these three nominations reflect something our team has spent more than a decade building toward; a reputation for genuine innovation in dispute management and fraud prevention, earned through the quality of the work we do.

When I founded Chargebacks911 in 2011, the goal was straightforward. I wanted to build technology-driven solutions that actually solve the chargeback problem for merchants.

Fifteen years later, the problem has grown more complex, the fraud landscape has shifted considerably, and the solutions we’ve developed have had to evolve accordingly. These nominations are a reflection of that evolution, and of the team that made it possible.

To my fellow finalists in the Women in PayTech category: it’s an honor to be recognized alongside you. The payments industry is better for the work you’re each doing! Click here to see a full list of nominees, and to learn more about the awards.
