But women will continue to be paid less than their male counterparts at the grasscourt Grand Slam.
Total prize money was increased by 3.9 percent up to a pool of 10,085,510 pounds.
The men's singles champion will earn 630,000 pounds while the champion woman will get 600,000 pounds.
The women are closing the gap, however. Their prize money for the singles was improved by 5.9 percent while the men's singles money rose by 4.6 percent.
"We are delighted to recognise the current stature of the women's game," All England Club chairman Tim Phillips told reporters.
