Guide: Money & Sponsors

Managing your finances well is as important as managing your squad. Here is a complete breakdown of how money flows in goalunited Legends.

Sources of Income

Source	Details	Frequency
Tutorial bonuses	Paid for each completed tutorial step	One-time (early game)
Sponsor base pay	Fixed amount per week regardless of results	Every Monday
Sponsor points bonus	Paid per league point earned in a match	Per league match
Ticket sales	Revenue from home match attendance	Per home match
Gastronomy	Sales from snackbar and restaurant buildings	Per home match
Merchandising	Fan shop and factory produce and sell items	Ongoing / daily
Player sales	Transfer fee when you sell a player	One-time per sale
Career bonuses	Money awards at career level milestones up to level 50	One-time per level

Career level bonuses are substantial — up to €100,000,000 total across the first 50 levels. The biggest individual payment is €15,000,000 at level 50.

Spending Wisely

Your weekly outgoings include player wages, staff salaries, building upkeep, and loan repayments (if any). A few rules of thumb:

Only spend money you already have. Never buy a player on borrowed money without a clear repayment plan.
Base your budget on guaranteed income only — sponsor base + ticket sales + gastronomy. Do not count on wins for your core budget.
Keep your weekly balance healthy. Check the Balance Sheet regularly (Club → Finances → Balance Sheet).
Do not take out loans speculatively. Debt spirals are the most common way managers end up in trouble.

The best long-term income strategy is growing your stadium capacity, maintaining a top-quality sponsor, and steadily selling trained players at profit
