Slovenia has taken $637,125 out of athletics, 42nd of the 130 countries the sport has paid. Kristjan Čeh is the biggest earner on $266,500, 41.8% of the national total.

The Diamond League is the biggest of the six for Slovenia on $566,125, 88.9% of the national total. Three of the six have paid Slovenia. Slovenia has won nothing at the Ultimate Championship, the World Relays and the World Cross Country Championships.
The ATHLETES column counts the people each competition paid, so it does not add up to 14: three athletes have been paid by more than one of the six, and are counted in every row that paid them and once in the national total. Kristjan Čeh has been paid by two of them: the Diamond League and the World Championships.
