🤝 Sponsorship System
Sponsors provide a steady monthly income to your club. Each club has sponsor slots that can be filled with brands willing to pay for visibility.
How it works
- Sponsors offer contracts with a monthly payment and a duration.
- Each sponsor has a tier (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond) that reflects its prestige and budget.
- Sponsors also follow a strategy: Mass (many teams, lower budgets), Balanced, or Elite (few teams, higher budgets).
- Higher-tier sponsors pay more but are harder to attract and have stricter conditions.
💡 A diversified sponsor portfolio (multiple tiers) gives you stability — if one contract ends, others still pay.
⭐ Team Attractiveness
Your team's attractiveness score determines which sponsors are interested in you. The higher your attractiveness, the better sponsors you can attract.
What influences attractiveness?
- Team level — Very High influence. Higher-level teams are far more attractive to sponsors.
- Team prestige — High influence. Prestigious clubs attract better brands.
- Star players — Medium influence. Players with high mediatic value make your club more appealing to sponsors.
- Stadium size — Medium influence. A larger stadium means more visibility for the sponsor's brand.
- Recent results — Low influence. Winning teams are slightly more attractive.
ℹ️ Elite sponsors only consider teams above a minimum attractiveness threshold. Keep improving your club to unlock them!
📋 Contract Conditions
Sponsors may include conditions in their contracts. If you violate a condition, the sponsor can terminate the contract early and you lose that income.
Possible conditions
- Minimum league position — You must finish above a certain position in your league.
- No relegation — You must not get relegated.
- Maximum yellow cards — Your team must stay below a certain number of yellow cards.
- Minimum attendance — Your matches must attract a minimum number of fans.
- Minimum level — Your club must maintain a minimum level.
- Minimum prestige — Your club must stay above a prestige threshold.
⚠️ Higher-tier sponsors impose stricter conditions. A Diamond sponsor that terminates their contract is a major financial blow — make sure you can meet the requirements!
🎮 Managed vs Active Mode
You can manage your sponsors in two ways:
Managed mode (default)
The game automatically handles sponsor negotiations for you. Contracts are renewed and new sponsors are found without your intervention. Ideal for players who want to focus on other aspects of the game.
Active mode
You take full control of sponsor negotiations. You can:
- Browse available sponsors and choose which ones to approach.
- Negotiate contracts directly with specific brands.
- Accept or reject offers based on conditions and payment.
Active mode gives you more control but requires attention. You could potentially secure better deals than the AI, but you also risk leaving slots empty if you don't negotiate.
💡 Start with Managed mode while you learn the game. Switch to Active when you want to optimize your sponsor income!
