Sustainability of culinary MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises) remains a critical concern for Pontianak's local economy. To explore this dynamic, this quantitative research examines the impact of digital marketing and financial technology on culinary enterprise sustainability in Pontianak City. Utilizing a survey approach, 81 respondents were selected via purposive sampling and analyzed using SPSS-assisted multiple linear regression.

Nevertheless, the simultaneous test confirms that both variables significantly affect MSME continuity (F-stat = 8.107, sig. = 0.001), explaining 15.1% of the variance.These insights highlight that digital financial tools serve as a primary catalyst for survival, whereas digital marketing strategies demand enhanced guidance and training. Therefore, practitioners are advised to maximize financial tech adoption, while policymakers and stakeholders ought to implement targeted digital marketing training initiatives to secure enduring business resilience.
