Most conferences are requiring their officials to be a member, and I would think almost every official would get their money back with one regular-season game.

As far as the money they are receiving, the Arbiter also collects a one-time fee per year from each conference or assignor per official on the roster. This is on top of the $100 fee received from the individual officials.

We pay this in baseball.. there are about 1300 college baseball Umpires..

and the arbiter charges about $4 per official that is signed up in Arbiter.
