Abstract Digital financial literacy combined with fintech solutions has become a game-changer for women's empowerment, especially in rural and semi-urban areas. This study explores the impact of fintech solutions on enhancing financial literacy and empowering women in Palakkad district, Kerala. The study explores the ways in which women's economic independence, decision-making skills, and financial inclusion are enhanced by having access to digital financial tools such microloan platforms, e-wallets, and mobile banking. The study uses a mixed-method approach that includes surveys, interviews, and focus groups to identify important issues, such as a lack of technological competency, knowledge, and access to digital information. The findings highlight that fintech solutions, when combined with targeted financial literacy programs, significantly improve women's participation in the financial ecosystem, leading to increased savings, better investment decisions, and entrepreneurial activities. The study concludes with recommendations for policymakers, financial institutions, and NGOs to bridge the digital divide and promote sustainable financial empowerment for women.
