The trophy for the FIFA Women's Champions Cup was revealed on 19 January 2026 in London, prior to the inaugural competition's semi-finals. The trophy has a design similar to the men's Club World Cup trophy used since 2025. The front of the trophy features map engravings of all six continental confederations arranged in a hexagonal shape, with a world map in the center reflecting "both the global reach of women’s club football and the international significance of the tournament".
