Under the terms of a deal with the European Club Association, UEFA distributed €32.8 million of revenue generated from Euro 2016 among the clubs who provided the players to competing international sides.
Clubs were compensated if their players participated in qualifiers as well as the finals tournament itself.
The dispiriting but hardly unsurprising news is that Sligo Rovers were the only club in the League of Ireland deemed eligible for compensation.
They have been awarded €16,706 from the scheme.
This was on account of Estonian international Sander Puri, who signed for the club on 1 February 2015. While at The Showgrounds, Puli played four qualifying games for Estonia in their unsuccessful attempt to reach the finals. They finished 4th in the group containing England. The Estonian defender has since moved on to Waterford FC.
Of the 54 national associations affiliated to UEFA, the League of Ireland finished 54th in terms of money received. Not far ahead of them were the IFA.
Linfield were the only Northern Irish team to receive money. They benefited to the tune of €62,670.
Clubs in places Gibraltar, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, and Malta received far more compensation than either national association on the island of Ireland as their national teams rely to a greater extent on their national leagues.
Overall, the England received the greatest compensation, with clubs from all four divisions in the Football League providing players who competed in the Euro 2016 qualifiers and finals. A total of 60 clubs will receive cheques.
Juventus were the individual club who received the greatest payout, receiving €3.48 million in total. Liverpool were in second on €3.39m, with Spurs (€3.06m) and Manchester United (€3m) third and fourth respectively.
Scotland's relative decline as a feeder to international teams is evident from its total compensation of just €1.75m. Celtic took the biggest slice of that sum with €449.000.
