They make money by running commercials during matches. Rights holder of the league, franchises and SLC will profit from TV rights.
SLC won't be making money from tv rights. All the income from TV deals will go to the organizers. SLC only and only gets $2Million USD and that too from the organizers. If crowds were to be allowed then SLC would make some from match tickets as long as the contract doesn't say they have to share it with the franchise owners.
