Abstract Financial technology is increasingly a significant determinant of corporate performance, especially in emerging nations where access to traditional financial services is still challenging. However, the degree of financial inclusion attained largely determines how well fintech-based financial products can assist female entrepreneurs in growing their companies. This study examines the relationship between FinTech-based financial offerings and the growth of women entrepreneurs' enterprises in Coimbatore in relation to financial inclusion. The study offers a conceptual framework that combines metrics of company growth, such as profitability, market expansion, and innovation capability, with FinTech adoption characteristics, such as digital payments, peer-to-peer lending, mobile banking, and crowdfunding. Structural equation modeling is used to evaluate both direct and mediated effects in empirical data gathered from women-led micro, small, and medium-sized companies (MSME’s). The results show that FinTech-based financial propositions greatly boost business growth, but that this effect is heavily influenced by financial inclusion factors including financial service quality, usage, and accessibility. The report emphasizes how promoting inclusive FinTech ecosystems, regulatory backing, and digital literacy may significantly empower female entrepreneurs and advance sustainable regional development.
