In MLS the Referee's and Assistant Referees' game fee is decided by the amount of past MLS experience each official has. Referees and Assistant Referees are ranked in catagories of level 1 2 3 or 4

For regular season MLS games here are the Referee's Game Fees

Level 4 = $850

Level 3 = $750

Level 2 = $650

Level 1 = $550

Assistant Referees' Game Fees

Level 4 (76+ previous MLS games assigned as of 3/15/08) = $475

Level 3 (41-75 previous MLS games assigned as of 3/15/08) = $350

Level 2 (21-40 previous MLS games assigned as of 3/15/08) = $300
