Editing FAI Cup (section)

== Qualification for subsequent competitions ==

=== European football ===
The FAI Cup winners qualify for the following season's [[UEFA Europa Conference League]]. This European place applies even if the team is [[Promotion and relegation|relegated]] or is not in the Republic of Ireland top flight. In the past, if the FAI Cup winning team also qualified for the following season's [[UEFA Champions League|Champions League]] or [[UEFA Conference League|Conference League]] through their league or European performance, then the losing FAI Cup finalists were given the European berth of the FAI Cup winners. Now the FAI Cup berth is then given to the highest-place team in the league who has not yet qualified. FAI Cup winners enter the [[UEFA Conference League]] at the Second qualifying round. Each club that qualifies for the UEFA Conference League gets prize money worth up to 10 million pounds.

=== Presidents Cup ===
The FAI Cup winners also qualify for the following season's single-match [[President of Ireland's Cup]], the traditional season opener played against the previous season's [[League of Ireland Premier Division|Premier Division]] champions (or the Premier Divisions runners-up if the FAI Cup winners also won the league – the [[Double (association football)#Republic of Ireland|double]]).
