The rapid proliferation of digital technologies has transformed the landscape of gen-der-based violence globally. This quantitative study used an online survey to explore the experiences of women with disabilities in relation to technology facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV) in South Africa. Findings from 204 participants highlight patterns across age, province, education, employment, income, disability type, and forms of TFGBV experienced. They show that cyberbullying, hacking, and hate speech were the most prevalent forms of TFGBV, disproportionately affecting women with various disa-bilities. The study further reveals how socioeconomic disadvantage manifested in limited access to secure technologies, digital literacy, and support systems intensifies exposure to harm and constrains access to justice. The study calls for inclusive, power-conscious ap-proaches to research, policy and interventions that centre lived experiences of women with disabilities. Addressing TFGBV in LMICs therefore requires not only legal reform and digital safety initiatives but also broader strategies for socioeconomic empowerment and systemic transformation to end gendered-disability violence in both the material and virtual world.
