Female soccer players at the Women’s World Cup will earn just 25 cents for every dollar earned by male players. Despite the improvement from eight cents in 2019, a significant gender pay gap persists. The tournament boasts a record prize money of $110 million, of which only $49 million will directly benefit individual players. Each participating player is guaranteed a minimum of $30,000, with $270,000 awarded to members of the winning squad. Additionally, FIFA has committed $42 million for Women's World Cup preparations, but disparities in payments persist. FIFA President Gianni Infantino expressed ambitions for equality in payments for the men's and women's World Cups in 2026 and 2027. Despite its massive worldwide audience, women's soccer continues to face challenges in securing equitable compensation.
