The research method used a quantitative approach, collecting data through questionnaires from 100 MSMEs in Palembang City. The data analysis technique used path analysis or Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results show that financial technology has a positive and significant effect on MSME performance. In addition, financial technology also has a positive effect on financial literacy, and financial literacy has been proven to have a positive effect on MSME performance. Financial literacy can significantly mediate the influence of financial technology on MSME performance.
