Fluminense received approximately R$ 5.2 million just for participating in the group stage. In the same phase, the club earned another R$ 3.4 million from its wins.

Qualification for the round of 16 added around R$ 6.5 million to the club’s coffers. Then, advancing to the quarterfinals brought in another R$ 8.8 million.
