The '''Fuji-Cup''' (played in 1986 as the '''Casio-Cup''') was an unofficial preparatory German [football](/source/Association_football) tournament held from 1986 to 1996 in the summer break immediately before the start of the [Bundesliga](/source/Bundesliga) season in smaller towns in the "Football Province". The competition, which consisted of two semi-finals followed by a match for 3rd place and a final, featured the four leading teams from the previous Bundesliga season.

Also before the start of the new Bundesliga season, the official [DFB-Supercup](/source/DFL-Supercup) was played between the Bundesliga winners and the [DFB-Pokal](/source/DFB-Pokal) winners of the previous season. Since the '''Fuji-Cup''' advanced over time into a dimension that the official DFB-Supercup of the DFB had not yet reached, the DFB initially introduced a clause that stipulated that DFB-Pokal winners and Bundesliga winners would not be invited to the '''Fuji-Cup''' tournament at the same time in order to avoid an early DFB-Supercup match.

For the 1997 season, the '''Fuji-Cup''' and DFB-Supercup were finally replaced by the newly created and official [DFB-Ligapokal](/source/DFL-Ligapokal), which was played until 2007. Since 2009, the [Telekom Cup](/source/Telekom_Cup) (2009 as the T-Home Cup, 2010–2012 as the LIGA total! Cup), which is also unofficial, has been held as a similar tournament to '''Fuji-Cup'''.

The record winner is [FC Bayern Munich](/source/FC_Bayern_Munich) with a total of five victories in the '''Casio-Cup''' and '''Fuji-Cup'''.

==Namesake==
The tournaments were [supported](/source/sponsor_(commercial)) by large and well-known manufacturers of technology from Japan at the time, namely (once) [Casio](/source/Casio) and [Fuji](/source/Fujifilm).
