Relegation play-offs
The two seventh-placed teams from the two 2. Bundesliga divisions, the five division champions from the 2017–18 Regionalliga and one second-placed team from the Regionalliga were divided into two groups of four to compete for two more spots in the 2018–19 2. Bundesliga.
The matches were played on 21 May, 27 May and 3 June.
Group 1
Pos | Team | Pld | W | D | L | GF | GA | GD | Pts | Qualification | WEI | JEN | FRA | SPE | |

4 | FC Speyer | 3 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 3 | 15 | −12 | 0 | — | 1–4 | — | — |
Rules for classification: 1) Points; 2) Head-to-head points; 3) Head-to-head goal difference; 4) Head-to-head goals scored; 5) Reapply criteria 2–4 exclusively to teams in question; 6) Goal difference; 7) Goals scored; 8) Fair play conduct; 9) Drawing of lots.[4]
Notes:
- Since USV Jena was relegated from the 2017–18 Frauen-Bundesliga, their second team was automatically relegated to the Regionalliga. If they won the group in this case, then the second-placed team from the group qualified for the 2. Bundesliga.
