I found this article which talked about the last Men's World Cup


in Russia which the US didn't even qualify for.

"Teams will win portions of the $400 million in total prize money up for grabs, according to FIFA, from $8 million per team for participating to $38 million for the winner."

Even if the Men's World Cup generates more money than the Women's World Cup, I would not assume that the countries are receiving a significantly bigger paycheck for the men's teams than the women's teams. If anything, that extra money is probably going to FIFA, the networks who have broadcasting rights to the games, and/or business/political officials affiliated with the host nation.
