Aminatou Seyni prize money
Aminatou Seyni has been paid $12,750 by the Diamond League, which ranks 762nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid. It came from three paid finishes in the women's 400 m and women's 100 m, the best of them 2nd.
The Diamond League pays by finishing place and nothing else. A published card sets what first through eighth is worth, the same figure in every discipline at that meeting, and ninth pays nothing.
Every payment
Where she finished, and what the card paid for it
| MEETING | DISCIPLINE | PLACE | PAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| AG Memorial Van Damme 2022 | 100 m | 7th | $750 |
| Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat 2019 | 400 m | 2nd | $6,000 |
| Athletissima 2019 | 400 m | 2nd | $6,000 |
| All three | two disciplines | — | $12,750 |
The three paid figures add up because none of them contains another: a place is paid once, at that meeting, so $12,750 is three separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.02% of the $53,753,250 the 104 meetings on this site paid out between them.

season running total
2019 is the biggest of them, $12,000 from two starts. No Diamond League meeting paid Aminatou Seyni in 2020 and 2021, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches $12,750.

Frequently asked questions
How much Diamond League prize money has Aminatou Seyni won?
$12,750, which ranks 762nd of the 2,112 athletes the series has paid across the 104 meetings on this site. It came from three paid finishes between 2019 and 2022.
What is Aminatou Seyni's biggest Diamond League payday?
$6,000, for finishing 2nd in the 400 m at the 2019 Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athlétisme de Rabat. The Diamond League pays by place rather than by performance, so that figure is what the card in force that season paid for 2nd and would have paid anybody who finished there.
How does the Diamond League decide what Aminatou Seyni gets paid?
Entirely by where she finishes. The series publishes one rate card a season and applies it to every discipline at every meeting, so a place is worth the same in the women's 400 m as it is in the shot put on the same afternoon. Eight places are paid and ninth pays nothing. There is no bonus for a record and no share of a gate.
Is this everything Aminatou Seyni earns from athletics?
No. This is the Diamond League, which is one series of 104 meetings. It holds no championship prize money, no national federation payment, no appearance fee and no sponsorship. What it does hold is every dollar the series itself paid her, priced off the card it published.
