Company details

  1. Professional and Hobby Associations

Written by the company

The International Society of Female Professionals helps women to overcome traditional barriers to successful careers. The society was newly minted in August 2019 in New York City with the mission of being the nation’s premier advocate for professional women of all walks of life and in virtually any professional field of endeavor. Despite women being about equal in number to males worldwide, there are far fewer in the professional world. There are fewer women doctors, lawyers, and other professional fields. There are fewer women executives and business owners despite many examples of prior success. Women have proven they are equally capable of excelling and leading in professional fields, executive roles, and entrepreneurship. Yet, our opportunities remain far fewer than those of our male counterparts. We aim to change that. The International Society for Female Professionals is a global advocate for professional women and actively promotes female advancement at the professional, executive, and entrepreneurial levels. We create a beneficial network that helps to encourage additional investment in the many excellent skills and leadership abilities that women possess but often go overlooked. Our sole purpose is to tear down the commonly encountered barriers that professional women face. Those barriers include lower pay, the proverbial glass ceiling, and fewer opportunities for advancement than our male counterparts. Instead of accepting invisible barriers to success, we work to remove those obstacles and forge new inroads for success. The International Society for Female Professionals creates a community of skilled and talented professional women who have widely varied career goals but share virtually the same obstacles toward success. We are growing our global network of exceptionally experienced, talented, and accomplished women to help support one another while we continue to grow at the national and international levels. Our membership includes licensed professionals, entrepreneurs, and business executives who recognize and have overcome the many challenges women face in a male-dominant professional world. We help women to make new connections and forge new inroads into professions and business opportunities for women. The society always accepts new members while expanding our scope and reaching the global level. We are active locally, nationally, and regionally in helping encourage women to become professionals, find new enterprises, and provide guidance at the executive level. Membership never is passive. We only accept women who are prepared to participate and be global and local ambassadors of female excellence while setting exemplary examples of professionalism and performance for others to follow. The International Society of Female Professionals is one of the newest women’s advocacy groups and immediately faced the challenge of a global pandemic shortly after its founding. Our leaders and members persevered and enabled the society to emerge as a strong force poised to help professional women, entrepreneurs, and executives. We strive to ensure future generations of women leaders enjoy more freedom and greater opportunities for success in the professional, executive, and entrepreneurial world. You can learn more about our advocacy by visiting our website at www.theisfp.com. We also maintain a social media presence on Twitter and Facebook. The society’s efforts go beyond the professional realm. We also help women to better succeed in their personal lives. We help provide you with the tools necessary for success, including the challenges encountered when obtaining an education, professional licensing, and founding new business entities. The International Society of Female Professionals helps to empower women to become strong leaders and advocates who make significant differences in their respective fields of endeavor. We are a global organization based in New York City and are accepting new members. Membership in the society is not a passive task. Instead, we expect our members to proactively promote women’s issues in the professional realm and become true advocates for their fellow female professionals. Women are marginalized in societies worldwide, and we intend to change that as much as possible. You can learn more about the International Society of Female Professionals and how it might help you by calling (718) 440-9304. We are located in New York City at 77 Water St., 8th Floor, 10005. Our mission has just begun and never will stop, and we invite you to become a part of our vital mission on behalf of professional women around the globe. You can contact us to learn more about our membership requirements and our mission to promote women’s excellence and leadership at virtually all levels. If you are in New York City, you can stop by our global headquarters and get a firsthand look at all that we do. We employ about 60 people who help fulfill our mission and expand our vision for more significant opportunities and participation among women with the unique talents and skills needed to ensure success.

Just to warn women....

Just to warn women that now, 4 1/2 years after first having contact with this organisation, they are now operating as Worldwide Women Organisation and have taken my details to put on this new website. Thankfully someone on LinkedIn alerted me but they are using my details to con more women and have ignored my request to immediately remove my details. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! They scammed me out of a lot of money.

Complete and total scam

Complete and total scam. Random charges added to your credit card. Will not respond when told to cancel membership. Have threatened them with legal action. Have involved my credit card company to stop the charges.

Warning! Fraud! Scammers!!

This company is simply luring people to get their credit card details and steal money.
I am fighting for 2 years now that they stop using my credit card details.
I have reported them to all possible authorities in the US and UK and can't believe that nothing has been done yet to get them off the streets. They need to get locked up.
Total fraud! Scammers! Do not sign up for this ever!!

Multiple Fraud

I was stupid enough to sign up for this company several years ago. After multiple aggressive phone calls from them and taking money from my card, they agreed to cancel membership. In the last 4 months (two years later) they have taken money from my bank account using new card details that they should not have been able to access. I have reported them for fraud.

I noticed that this complany had taken additional payments without permission, or sending invoice or receipts etc.

I noticed that this complany had taken payments this March without permission so I wrote to them immediately. After receiving no replies I wrote again last week and was told that an account manager had called me at the end of March - absolute lies! They have taken further monies from me, although, I too, was also told that the original $300 was for life. I have now cancelled them forever from my credit card compnay but doubt very much that I will ever see the money again. Avoid this company like the plague!!!

Scam artists.

This company routinely commits fraud in the form of credit card charges that have not been authorized. They offer no benefits. I have requests cancelation and removal from their system multiple times, they continue to charge my card. I have filed with the BBB, with the FTC, and with the state attorney general in California. Do not give them any of your information. Save yourself the massive headache and lost funds. I was originally contacted in 2022, they just took more then $1500 in 2024 despite telling me multiple times in writing that my information was expunged from their system.

I’d like to give them a zero

I’d like to give them a zero. They’ve taken thousands from me by pushing me for a credit card payment (one off!!) during the terrible covid time. They’ve scammed me for thousands since

What a scam

What a scam. It is just a database of people. Nothing more.
They charge you and say you can change your mind and get a refund within the cooling period. I am waiting now for over a month to get a refund and they no longer respond to emails. Stay away!

SCAM - Do Not Join this "Organisation"

Do not join up for this. I paid a "lifetime" one-off fee four years ago and have been charged anything between £40 - £500 randomly since then. I complained and was told that my payment details would be removed from their system, but the charges continued. Fortunately, I have managed to stop most of these payments, but I've had to change my card several times now. All of this is for absolutely no service whatsoever - it is shameful that an organisation that proports to support professional women, ends up punishing them with this scam for daring to want to do something to support their career.

Extreme delay in refund process.

Though ISFP customer service has been polite and helpful but I can't help but be frustrated by the delay in processing the refund of my money. I was told in January that I will get the refund within 15 days but I didn't receive it even after 2 months. When I emailed ISFP they said they have processed the refund and it will reflect in 3-5 business days but my refund still didn't reflect. When I contacted them again, I was told to wait another 3-5 business days. This is getting ridiculous. How long does it take to process a refund? I also don't know who else to contact and I am stuck dealing this matter with only one person.

This is a total scam

This is a total scam. My wife joined them about 7 years ago, thinking they were a genuine society. DO NOT PAY THEM ANYTHING, EVER - even if it is a small reservation fee. They do nothing for you and then start charging you around $500 at every opportunity they can, even though you didn't approve that scale of payment. Once they have had any sort of money from your account they keep on demanding more and more. Even if you cancel your credit cards (we have done this more than 7 times now - very inconvenient) they still come back with a slightly altered society name each time (to spoof the detection systems). Happily my bank (NatWest) does a great job of spotting them and blocks the payments. However, this means we are continually closing down cards and reinstating all the other genuine payments that have been set up. DO NOT FALL FOR IT !!!

THIS IS A SCAM!

THIS IS A SCAM!! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! READ TO THE END. If I could give them a minus rating, I would. I cannot believe the founders of this organisation or those who run it are walking free and not behind bars. In my view, they're criminals. They approached me by email, the first time a couple of years ago, saying they had accepted my application to join their organisation. At the time, I thought it was a good idea. I went ahead and paid a one-off membership (around $199). They then kept charging me for other things I had not agreed to. They wouldn't reply to my complaints, give me a refund, or cancel my membership. I had to get the bank to cancel my credit card and issue a new one. I thought that would be the end of it but NO! This organisation keeps changing their merchant name so they can they can legally request money from you again. I've had to cancel three credit cards because of them so far. Now, I am left with no option but to close the credit card account completely. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM!!

Still waiting for credit card reversal since Jun 2023

In 2022 our credit card was automatically charged for yearly fee even though we cancelled the subscription in advance. We were told our card would be ex-sponged from the system and evenly a refund was issued. Then again in May of 2023 our card was charged, we requested a refund, only to find out they charged us again with no refund. Promise of card being ex-sponged. We are following up constantly but still waiting for the refund for the two fraudulent charges since June of 2023. The process is time consuming for my team. I would not recommend the company.
