UEFA has raised the total prize pool for Euro Women 2025 to 41 million euros, a 156% increase. Teams will receive a fixed 1.8 million euros, with additional prizes based on performance and victories.
Women’s football continues to grow worldwide, and UEFA’s announcement of the monetary prize increase for the upcoming Euro Women 2025 is a testament to this growth. The total prize pool for the tournament has been increased to 41 million euros, which will be distributed among the 16 teams competing.
How much will teams earn for participating in the Euro?
During a meeting of the UEFA Executive Committee in Lausanne, Switzerland, it was agreed to increase the investment for the tournament to be held in 2025 by 156% compared to the 2022 edition, which had a prize pool of only 16 million euros.
Teams participating in the tournament will receive a fixed 1.8 million euros, equivalent to 70% of the total prize pool. The remaining 30% is reserved for performance, with 50,000 euros awarded for draws and 100,000 euros for each victory achieved.
These amounts increase in the knockout stages, with 550,000 euros going to the winners of the quarter-finals and 700,000 euros to the teams that reach the final.
The bigger prizes!
The grand prize for the European champions has also seen a significant improvement compared to the previous edition, as winning all their matches could yield a total of 5.1 million euros, which is a better prize compared to the 2.085 million euros of Euro 2022, though still far from the prizes in men’s football.
Finally, the consolation prize for the runners-up will be 850,000 euros, bringing the total sum of 41 million euros invested in the tournament.
