(According to The Athletic)

It has been already announced the winners of this summer’s tournament will earn a further $74.1million (£54m), including $40m from the final alone, on top of what they have already pocketed from the competition and much of FIFA’s $1billion prize pot has now been allocated.  Participation fees of $525m were rolled out before the competition kicked-off and, since then, the results of 48 group games and the identification of 16 progressing teams (who each earned $7.5m for doing so) meant a further $216m in performance-related prize money has also been apportioned.
