Other UEFA Champions League prize moneyWhile 55 percent of the total prize purse is distributed among the clubs as a reward for their results in the competition as dictated above, the rest of the 45 percent of the pool is split across the 32 group stage participants in two ways. Coefficient payoutA total of 30 percent of the prize money (€600.6m) is paid out to all 32 clubs in the Champions League group stage based on a coefficient algorithm that ranks their European performance over a 10-year period. The teams are ranked from 1 to 32, with bonus points given for hoisting European trophies, and then paid out in shares. One coefficient share is worth €1.137 million. The lowest-ranked team earns one share, while the top-ranked team earns 32 shares, or €36.38m. Broadcast market payoutAn additional €300.3m (15 percent of the total purse) is made available as part of the broadcast revenue once all the broadcast deals are finalized around the continent.

Meanwhile, the Europa Conference League winner will earn about €8.9 million in performance-based prize money in the knockout stage, plus an additional possible €3.65 million in potential group stage earnings for a perfect six-match showing. How did COVID-19 impact UEFA prize money?Given the impact that COVID-19 has had on European football, UEFA announced prior to the 2021/22 competitions that some money would be withheld from prize distributions to assist with COVID-19 relief across European football. UEFA stated that losses due to COVID-19 among European clubs in the 2019/20 season totaled €416.5 million, while clubs lost an additional €57.3 million in the 2020/21 season. Therefore, UEFA decided to "withhold" this specific amount of money from the European cup prize pool over the next four to five seasons and allocate it to COVID-19 relief programs within European football.
