Each of the 23 French internationals will receive a bonus of €300,000 if they defeat Portugal in the final of Euro 2016, on Sunday, 07/10/2016, at the Stade de France (Saint-Denis). If defeated, their bonus will be €250,000. These amounts were announced by Noël Le Graët, president of the FFF, after a meeting with French internationals Hugo Lloris and Blaise Matuidi, on 01/06/2016.

"Les Blues" would have received nothing if eliminated before the quarter-finals, that is to say at the end of the group stage or in the round of 16. The bonus was fixed at €165,000 if eliminated in the quarter-finals and €210,000 if France were eliminated in the semi-final against Germany, on 07/07/2016.

"Generally the Federation pays 30% of the sum given to it by UEFA or FIFA, depending on the competition. The sums are satisfying, excluding the federal budget. The 23 players will leave 5% of the total for those who trained with them (but who were not selected for the final tournament)," indicated Noël Le Graët, on 01/06/2016.
