contents We systematically study the spin correlations and quantum entanglement in transversely polarized electron-positron collisions. We find that the $s$-channel QED process $e^-e^+\to f\bar f$ produces a maximally entangled state in the entire phase space when the initial beams are transversely polarized, while the quantum magic varies in different phase space points for the maximally entangled Bell states. For electroweak processes, the spin configuration of final states depends on chiral couplings, and the entanglement is also greatly enhanced by transverse polarization as in the QED process. For Bhabha scattering with additional $t$-channel contributions, the transverse polarization still increases the final state entanglement, although with some dilution. The sensitive dependence of final spin states on the transverse polarization makes the beam polarization a powerful tool for generating and controlling quantum entanglement in collider experiments, opening up new opportunities for quantum information studies at high-energy colliders.
