The Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) said VND7.6 billion ($434,000) of the total cash would be divided between the team members according to a ranking system.
There are also gifts worth VND370 million which include a car from Suzuki and an LCD television.
VFF said everyone on the team, including players, the Portuguese coach Henrique Calisto, officials and doctors, would be paid according to their contribution and could expect sums of VND300 million, VND200 million, VND150 million or VND100 million.
The remaining VND2.6 billion in cash would be for personal bonuses - VND430 million for Calisto and VND230 million each for players Duong Hong Son, Le Cong Vinh and Nguyen Vu Phong.
Son will walk away with a tidy sum having also won the cup’s Most Valuable Player award of $5,000.
Vietnam won the AFF Suzuki Cup last December after defeating arch-foe Thailand 3-2 on aggregate. VFF and sponsors are providing the bonuses, VFF said.
