Qualification and Money
editAccording to U.S. Soccer, the top placing teams in each division receive $25,000. In the case of a tie (same round reached, same number of regulation wins and games going to penalty kicks), these teams will split the money.
U.S. Soccer recognizes four divisions:
- . Division I - Currently only Major League Soccer.
- . Division II - Currently only USL Championship.
- . Division III - Currently USL League One and NISA, though as NISA is not yet formed, it has no teams in the 2019 U.S. Open Cup.
- . Open Division - All other teams, including, but not limited to, those in USL League Two, NPSL, and UPSL.
See the page United States soccer league system for more information.
Money Qualifiers
editAfter Round 2, Forward Madison FC clinched the $25,000 prize for Division III for being the last remaining team from USL League One.[1]
After Round 2, the two remaining teams from the Open Division, Florida Soccer Soldiers and Orange County FC, both have won one game in regulation and one game in penalty kicks. If both either lose in regulation or in penalty kicks in Round 3, they will split the $25,000 prize. If one goes to penalty kicks and loses and the other loses in regulation, the team who goes to penalty kicks will receive the full $25.000.
After Round 2, the following teams from Division II are still eligible for the prize:

- Thanks for fixing - I was trying to delete the wrong ones and I messed that up. That is why I added the Division headings to make it easier for people. Chris1834 Talk 13:52, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
84 Teams and 52 Matches Played Needs to be Updated
editThe box on the right says there are 84 teams and 52 matches played. Given that 2 teams are left, the box must not have been updated. I didn't update it because I didn't want to count the goals to update the goals and goals per game. EvanJ35 (talk) 12:03, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
