Income Guide: Club Financing

Maximize capital for your training plan


In Hattrick, income is the foundation for maintaining club stability. It is divided into five categories: gate receipts, sponsors, player sales, commissions, and prize money.

1. Sponsors (New 2025 System)

The most consistent source: a fixed weekly amount throughout the season based on long-term performance.

Calculation Factors
  • Recent Performance: League and Cup results.
  • Potential Ratings: The actual strength your team can display.
  • Club Image: A large fan club and sporting success attract more money.
Contract Choice (Week 16)

You can choose from 5 offers with varying risk levels and fixed/variable components.

Note: If you don't choose, the system will assign the "safe" option by default.

2. Stadium Revenue (Gate Receipts)

Depends on members, their mood, and the weather. The split varies by match type:

Match Type Home Away
League 100% 0%
Cup 67% 33%
Friendlies / Promotion 50% 50%
* In Cup final rounds (neutral ground), the split is 50/50.
Member Fees

30 €

Each member pays this fee
once per season.

3. Player Sales and Commissions

Transfer Market

The most profitable strategy is selling your trainees once they have gained several levels in their main skill.

Third-party Sales Commissions

2% as Home Club: If you formed the player.

Up to 3% as Previous Club: If the player previously passed through your club.

4. Other Income and Prizes

League Prizes Based on final position (1st to 4th place). Prizes increase in higher divisions.
Promotion Bonus Extra payment for promoting and an immediate 10% increase in members.
Top Scorer 10,000 € prize for the team that owns the league's top goalscorer.
