Yan Dhanda's late header against Dinamo Minsk helped earn Heart of Midlothian a tidy win bonus.
The midfielder nodded home from close range to end the nightmare losing streak and kick-start the Conference League campaign with a win in Azerbaijan.
The 2-1 victory also sees Hearts pocket a win bonus from UEFA coffers - up for grabs in every single league phase outing of the revamped Conference League format.
Hearts already banked f €3.17m (£2.66m) for their participation in the league phase before any win or draws bonus payments.
But they'll now receive another €400k (£335k) after winning against Dinamo Minsk.
Draws in the league phase of the Conference League earn clubs €133k (£112k) with losses meaning no bonus payments from UEFA.

On top of the payments so far, Hearts will also be guaranteed a fee for their final placement in the league phase regardless of where they finish but increasing for every spot higher in the table.
Every club will receive at least €28k (£23.5k) but that is increased by another €28k (£23.5k) for every position above 36th a club finishes.
Clubs placing first to eighth will be paid another €400k (£336k) with those between ninth and 16th earning €200k (£168k) for their efforts.
Clubs will take home €200k (£168k) should they qualify to the knockout round play-offs, €800k for the semi-final, €1.3m for the quarter-final stage, €2.5m in the semi-final and €4m in the final.
The winners of the Conference League will bank €3m (£2.52m) on top of all other payments.
