The NZM Republican Cup (referred to historically, and colloquially, as simply the Republican Cup) is an annual knockout football competition in men's domestic Mordvanian football. Organized by the Mordvanian Football Association (NZM), it is open to any club within the top three levels of the Mordvanian football league system -60 clubs in total- comprising the top Mordvanian Premier League, and the two divisions of the Mordvanian Football Association's own league competition (First Division and Second Division).

First held in 1546-1547, it is one of the second most important domestic football competitions in Mordvania, after the Mordvanian Premier League, and the oldest football competition. It concludes in Zechyr, usually one week after the end of the Mordvanian Premier League.

The tournament is played over eight rounds, with single leg ties throughout, except the semi-finals. Since 1590, the final is held at the Slovograd Olympic Stadium. The current holders are Slovograd 1566, who beat NK Dzen 2-0 in the 1601 final to win their seventh title.
