A new prizes and points scheme was introduced from Spring 2006 for the new rotation system. The old point and prize system is described below. The new system is described here.
More than 65% of the tour budget was distributed to the players. 13450 Euro as prizes at tournaments and 7000 Euro for the top twelve in the overall ranking.
Ten percent was allocated to realise the organisers support and the uniform promotion material. An extra budget was used to support broadcasting games on IGS-PandaNet.

The TOYOTA - IGS-PandaNet Tour tournaments were divided into two sets: the final and the other tournaments, which are treated differently when counting points.
TOYOTA - IGS-PandaNet Tour points are given to top twelve places in the final and top eight places in the other tournaments. Players with the same MacMahon score will divide the total points of their places. Their score will be rounded up to two digits behind the comma (0,333 will be 0,34 and 0,666 is 0,67). Only players who compete in every round of a tournament will be eligible for points for that tournament.
| Place | Paris Final | Major and Top tournaments |
| 1st | 38 | 24 |
| 2nd | 32 | 20 |
| 3rd | 28 | 16 |

If TOYOTA - IGS-PandaNet Tour points of two players were the same in the overall ranking then the player with the most first places in the Tour got the higher place, if the number of first places are equal than the number of second places was compared, etc.
Before the start of the final a player could count points
up to a maximum of 100 from the first eleven tournaments.
Example:
A
player got places 1,1,2,2,2 in others and 2 in the final.
The points were
24+24+20+20+20=108 > 100 and 32 points in the final =132.
