The award is given by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS), the entity has also produced a monthly Club World Ranking.
The ranking takes into consideration the results of twelve months of continental and intercontinental competitions, national league matches (including play-offs) and the most important national cup (excluding points won before the round of 16).
All countries are rated at four levels based upon the national league performance—clubs in the highest level leagues receive 4 points for each match won, 2 for a draw and 0 for a defeat. Level 2 is assigned 3 pts. (win), 1.5 (draw) and 0 (lost), and so on with the next lower levels.
In continental competitions, all clubs receive the same number of points at all stages regardless of the performance level of their leagues. However, the UEFA Champions League and the Copa Libertadores yield more points than UEFA Europa League and Copa Sudamericana, respectively. The point assignment system is still lower for the AFC, CAF, CONCACAF and OFC continental tournaments. Competitions between two continents are evaluated depending upon their importance. Competitions not organized by a continental confederation, or any intercontinental events not recognized by FIFA, are not taken into consideration.

In 2009, the IFFHS released the results of a statistical study series which determined the best continental clubs of the 20th century.{{cite web|title=The continental Clubs of the Century|url=http://www.iffhs.de/?7d4d443d0a8a3ccdc42ec70a114b4ccc13f8ac378cdc07ccaf10|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090922020029/http://www.iffhs.de/?7d4d443d0a8a3ccdc42ec70a114b4ccc13f8ac378cdc07ccaf10|archive-date=22 September 2009|access-date=5 October 2019|publisher=IFFHS}} The ranking did not consider the performance of the teams in national football tournaments (except in the Oceania's club ranking due to limited editions held under OFC club competitions), the performance in the intercontinental or worldwide club competitions or those submitted in the IFFHS Club World Ranking, available since 1991.{{cite web|title=Europe's club of the Century|url=http://www.iffhs.de/?a413f0e03790c443e0f40390b41be8b01905fdcdc3bfcdc0aec70aeedb883ccb05ff1d|access-date=10 September 2009|website=IFFHS}}
Based on this study, which assigned a weighted score criteria applied for each competition analysed, the below six clubs were named as "continental clubs of the century" by the IFFHS between 10 September and 13 October 2009. These clubs were awarded with a golden trophy and a certificate during the World Football Gala celebrated at Fulham, London, on 11 May 2010.{{cite news|title=World Football Gala 2010 in London|publisher=International Federation of Football History & Statistics|url=http://www.iffhs.de/?b3e20e62b0af12b04fb3417f7370eff3702bb1c2bb11|access-date=11 May 2010}}{{cite news|title=Real Madrid, mejor club de Europa del Siglo XX (video de la premiación)|language=es|publisher=Real Madrid CF|url=http://www.realmadrid.com/cs/Satellite/es/1330005139100/noticia/Noticia/El_Real_Madrid,_Mejor_Club_de_Europa_del_siglo_XX.htm|url-status=dead|access-date=12 May 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100514110157/http://www.realmadrid.com/cs/Satellite/es/1330005139100/noticia/Noticia/El_Real_Madrid,_Mejor_Club_de_Europa_del_siglo_XX.htm|archive-date=14 May 2010}}{{Cite web|title=IFFHS HISTORY : CONTINENTAL CENTURY CLUBS (1900-1999)|url=https://www.iffhs.com/posts/489|access-date=6 November 2021|website=IFFHS}}
