Value pillar

The value pillar is one of the four pillars of the distribution. It is shaped by the club coefficient and by the standing of the competition itself, so it rewards a club's ranking as well as its results.

Why it matters

It matters because it carries the past into the money. A club with a high coefficient and a long association with the competition draws a larger share from this pillar, so the ranking affects income as well as fixtures.

Where it is used

It is used in the distribution alongside the base share, the performance pillar and the market pool. The value pillar is where the coefficient reaches into the finances of a club, connecting the draw to the accounts.

How to read it

Read the value pillar as the standing component of the money. It is not earned in a single match but accumulated across seasons, so it rewards the record a club has built over time in the competition.

What it means
