After the meeting, FIFA Secretary General Jerome Wacker gave a presentation on the distribution of prize money: the winner of the championship will receive $30 million, and the runner-up will receive $24 million.

The third- and fourth-place teams receive $20 million; In addition, the teams that make it to the quarterfinals will receive $18 million, and the teams that make it to the quarterfinals will receive $9 million. Even the teams eliminated in the group stage receive $8 million, and each participating team receives an additional $1 million in FIFA subsidies in addition to the tournament prize money to cover expenses incurred during the World Cup.

From this point of view, the 32 teams that were lucky enough to participate in the World Cup in South Africa earned nearly $10 million regardless of their results, not counting the additional remuneration from sponsors. During this period, FIFA also announced that not only can the World Cup participating teams receive a considerable amount of prize money, but the clubs for which the participating players play will also receive certain financial compensation for the "requisition" of their players, which totals up to 40 million US dollars. "Every player who plays in the World Cup will be financially compensated by FIFA, in principle, $1,600 a day, from 15 days before the start of the World Cup until the day after the World Cup.

Wacker said. The allowance to the clubs will be paid by FIFA to the national football associations and then transferred to the clubs. As an additional condition of the subsidy, all clubs receiving the subsidy agreed not to bring a lawsuit in the courts of each country or continent for injury or illness, but only to FIFA and its designated sports arbitration body, which will continue until the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
