The Copa Sudamericana is a trophy of association football awarded annually by CONMEBOL to the club that wins the Copa Sudamericana; the competition shares its name with the trophy.

Before the proceedings happen, the club president of the defending champion returns the trophy to the president of CONMEBOL, and a replica trophy is awarded to the winning club.

At the top of the cup, there is a silver ball with light-silver stars and pentagons.

In the middle, the CONMEBOL logo is held together by two hoists, while the phrase "COPA SUDAMERICANA" can be read from the top.

The badges are placed at the top base of the pedestal one underneath another and span eight columns.
