The victory was accompanied by a record-breaking financial reward, as FIFA allocated a prize of $50 million, the largest in the tournament's history. The Spanish Football Federation will receive approximately 44 million euros from this prize. Additionally, the team received financial support prior to the tournament amounting to $1.5 million for each team, and about 45% of the prize money was allocated to the players, totaling around 20 million euros.
