The 2017–18 FA Women's Premier League Cup is the 27th running of the FA Women's Premier League Cup, which began in 1991. It is the major League Cup competition run by the FA Women's Premier League, and for the fourth season it is being run alongside their secondary League Cup competition, the Premier League Plate.[1]

All 71 Premier League clubs entered at the Determining round, with the winners continuing in the competition and the losers going into the Premier League Plate tournament.

Tottenham Hotspur is the reigning champions, having defeated Charlton Athletic 4–3 on penalties the previous season,[2] but will not be defending their title after their promotion to the FA WSL 2.
