The 2014–15 UEFA Women's Champions League was the 14th edition of the European women's club football championship organized by UEFA. The final was played on 14 May 2015 at the Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark, Berlin, Germany. Unlike recent years in which the Women's Champions League final was held in the same week as the men's Champions League final, the two finals were separated by almost a month, as the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup starts in early June.

German side 1. FFC Frankfurt defeated French side Paris 2–1 in the final to win a record fourth title.

A total of 54 teams from 46 UEFA member associations participated in the 2014–15 UEFA Women's Champions League. The ranking based on the UEFA Women's Champions League association coefficient was used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:

Since Wolfsburg, the winners of the 2013–14 UEFA Women's Champions League, already qualified through their domestic league, the title holder entry was not used.

For the 2014–15 UEFA Women's Champions League, the associations were allocated places according to their 2013 UEFA Women's Champions League association coefficient, which took into account their performance in European competitions from 2008–09 to 2012–13.

The Czech Republic overtook Austria for eighth place in the UEFA coefficient ranking and thus assured themselves a second entry.

Luxembourg (47th), Georgia (48th), Andorra, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Gibraltar, Liechtenstein, and San Marino (all no rank, as association did not enter in the five seasons used for computing coefficients) did not enter.
