Overall, pay them a percentage of what the teams bring in. Make the percentages the same for the men and women and let the market decide what it is worth.
I agree with this, but US Soccer doesn't distinguish what each team makes come the end of the fiscal year. They bunch it all up into one figure, probably because the guys typically make 20x what the girls make when they aren't parading around on some WC celebration tour.

No. They break revenues down by men and women. Except for TV/sponsorships. Which aren't sold by gender.
And their projections have the women making more this year when neither team has a World Cup. Not exactly 20 times less than the men.
Meanwhile, in each team's respective WC year, the men brought in 27.6 million in revenue. The women 26.7 million.
