This means FIFA increased its revenue fivefold compared with the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. A total of 6.81 million tickets were sold for the championship's matches.
FIFA used dynamic pricing and charged a 30 percent fee on the resale of tickets that had already been purchased.
According to sources within FIFA, the aim was to discourage secondary sales and ensure the revenue went to FIFA instead of agencies and ticket platforms.
FIFA has not confirmed the data and is expected to publish the official figures in its annual report.
Spain won the World Cup after defeating Argentina 1–0 in the final.
