The Irish FA's director of women's football Angela Platt says the announcement that Northern Ireland's men's and women's players will receive equal pay "is a transformative moment for football" in the country.
The agreement over pay comes into effect immediately.
The IFA had been in dialogue with the Players' Football Association NI (PFA NI) and senior players.
"Equality is the cornerstone of everything we do," said Platt.
