The extra income has been earned from the commercial deals with the hosts this year. Qatar Energy joined as a top-tier sponsor, and a new third-tier sponsor includes Qatari bank QNB and telecommunications firm Ooredoo. It also signed broadcast deals with Fox in the United States and Qatari broadcaster BeIN Sports in 2011.

FIFA pays for the host country’s organizing committee, prize money, travel, and accommodation for teams and support staff. It also pays the legacy funds for the development of the infrastructure of football in the country.

FIFA organizes its accounts in four-year cycles around each World Cup. It earned $6.4bn in the previous 2015-2018 cycle. The governing body used that cash to help member bodies in the uncertain period in 2020 when national team football and World Cup qualifying games were almost entirely shut down.
