KIGALI – Prize money for the 2023 Women's World Cup will be $150 million, 10 times what it was in 2015 and three times the amount of 2019, FIFA president Gianni Infantino announced in his closing remarks to the 73rd FIFA Congress on Thursday. The figure, however, is still considerably lower than the $440 million total prize money awarded at the men's World Cup in Qatar last year. 'For the first time ever, I (plan to) dedicate a specific portion of this payment, which mainly has to go to football development, but a specific portion of that should go of course to the players,' Infantino said, in announcing Step Two of his three-step plan.
