The referees are there just as long as the players and they have to eat sleep and train so it makes sense they get paid a significant amount for their time and skills. Before they even get to the tournament, the referees get some stuff for free.

All the officials will get a personalized stash which includes boots, a training kit and the all-new 2022 referee kits, all from Adidas. Our personal favourite gift is a $5k watch from Hublot! Snazzy!

The referees get $70k per tournament as a flat fee, and a $3k bonus for every game they complete. The assistant referees get $25k and a $2k game bonus.

The World Cup final referee will receive a commemorative medal as well as an all-new stash.
