The first thing that comes to mind whenever people think about earning money by playing games is esports. Competing in tournaments is a great way to make money. Players can earn more if they are sponsored or employed by esports teams. However, if finding a team is hard, there is yet another way players can earn in Fortnite esports.

Epic Games frequently conducts Fortnite Cash Cups, which are minor regional tournaments with a cash prize for the winners. This is a great way for underdogs to show off their skills and earn some money while doing the same. There are also several major events, such as the FNCS. However, almost all pros compete in these tournaments, making them much harder to win.
