FIFA received a record 15 billion dollars in revenue from the 2026 World Cup

FIFA has tallied the financial results of the 2026 World Cup, recording a record revenue of 15 billion dollars. According to The media, this amount significantly exceeded the initial expectations of the management of the organization, which predicted about 11 billion dollars in revenue. According to the source, one of the main factors of such financial success was high income from the sale and official resale of tickets. On each resale transaction, FIFA received a commission of 15% from both the seller and the buyer. Premium hospitality packages and related services, which were in high demand during the tournament, also made a significant contribution to the record result.
