Two teams that went out at the same stage can still be paid different money, because every group result is paid for. 8 teams went out in the group stage and took £68,803,416 between them, and Spain were paid 2.9 times what the lowest-paid teams were.

67% of the pot was paid for turning up. The 36 group matches paid £30,769,222 between them, and the knockout rounds the other £62,393,155. The money stacks: a team is paid for every round it reaches, so a semi-finalist collects the round of 16 and quarter-final payments as well. That is the opposite of the World Cup, where a team is paid once for where it finished.

|---|---|---|
| Taking part | £7,905,983£7.9m | £7,905,983£7.9m |
| Winning all three group matches | £2,564,103£2.6m | £10,470,086£10.5m |
| Reaching the round of 16 | £1,282,051£1.3m | £11,752,137£11.8m |

| Reaching the semi-finals | £3,418,803£3.4m | £17,307,692£17.3m |
| Winning the final | £6,837,607£6.8m | £24,145,299£24.1m |
That is the most any team could collect: three group wins and every round to the trophy. England took the same route to the final with one win and two draws in the group, which is why the gap between the two finalists is £3,418,805 rather than the £2,564,103 the final itself was worth.

The knockout money is the same for every team that went out at a stage, and the group results make up the rest. The 8 group-stage exits took more between them than Spain and England together, at £68,803,416 against £44,871,793, because the fee for taking part is paid to every team whatever happens next.
