Prizes and Perks
The Bonus Cash Prize Pool
This is the largest prize pool in MFL history. $25,000+ in Bonus Cash, guaranteed. Paid in Dapper Balance, which is USD-equivalent credit you can spend on packs or the Marketplace. Real money, real prizes, for every nation that competes.
How the Pool Grows
The prize pool starts at $25,000 and stays there until 25,000 shares are sold across all nations. Once that threshold is crossed, every additional share adds $0.75 to the pool.
Until 25,000 shares are sold, MFL fully subsidizes the pool. Past the threshold, $0.75 of every $0.99 share goes directly to the pool.
How Prizes Are Distributed
Every nation earns something. The further your nation goes, the bigger the payout.
| Placement | Teams | % of pool per team | $/team at $25k floor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Winner | 1 | 13% | $3,250 |
| Runner-up | 1 | 8.2% | $2,050 |
| Semi-final | 2 | 6% | $1,500 |
| Quarter-final | 4 | 3.5% | $875 |
| Round of 16 | 8 | 2% | $500 |
| Round of 32 | 16 | 1.3% | $325 |
| Group Stage exit | 16 | 1% | $250 |
95% of each nation's prize goes to shareholders, proportional to shares held. 5% goes to agents (player owners) of players called up to the national squad, split evenly per player.
What Is Dapper Balance?
Non-withdrawable balance in your Dapper wallet, equivalent to $1 USD per unit. Use it to buy packs from the store or spend on the Marketplace. All Nations Cup prizes are paid in Dapper Balance.
Perks
Three types of perks unlock as shares accumulate. Nation-wide perks benefit everyone backing that nation. Individual perks are personal to you.
Nation Tier Perks (based on total shares sold for that nation)
When a nation hits these thresholds, every shareholder of that nation benefits:
| Total nation shares | Perk |
|---|---|
| 100 | National Anthem |
| 250 | Nation Custom Pitch |
| 500 | Raffle: 1x Premium + 2x Pro Nations Cup Packs |
| 1,000 | +5 Extra Squad Slots |
| 2,500 | Raffle: 1x Elite + 2x Premium Nations Cup Packs |
National Anthem (100 shares): Your nation's anthem plays before each of its Nations Cup matches.
Nation Custom Pitch (250 shares): Shareholders unlock a Nations Cup pitch themed after their nation.
Raffle (500 / 2,500 shares): At the end of the event, if the milestone has been reached, we conduct a draw among all shareholders of that nation. Each share you hold is one entry. Winners receive the listed Nations Cup Packs.
+5 Extra Squad Slots (1,000 shares): The nation's manager can select a squad of 25 players instead of just 20. More depth, more tactical options.
Individual Badges (based on your shares in each nation)
| Your shares in a nation | Badge |
|---|---|
