Vollering won three stages as well as the Tour itself, so it comes as no surprise that her FDJ-SUEZ team tops the prize-money rankings. The French team earned just over €77,000 in total.
CANYON//SRAM follows with almost €51,500, while UAE takes home €38,080. SD Worx-Protime (€19,210) and Lidl-Trek (€14,780) complete the top five. Visma | Lease a Bike earned more than €75,000 last year, but this time had to settle for around 10 percent of that amount: €7,370.
Right at the bottom of the rankings is VolkerWessels, which earned just €250 across the nine days of the Tour de France Femmes. In total, six teams will receive less than €1,000 in prize money.

More than €2 million was distributed in the men's race, with winner Pogačar receiving €500,000 for his overall victory.
UAE, the Slovenian's team, earned well over €800,000. In the men's race, Picnic PostNL was the team that earned the least, although even its total still came to more than €12,000.
