Copa MX was a professional association football competition in Mexico and a domestic cup tournament for clubs at the highest and second levels of Mexican football league system. Formerly named Copa México (1942–1963, 1970–1976, 1987–1992, 1994–1997) and Copa Presidente (1963–1970), it was the first competition that included clubs from different regions of Mexico. The tournament was held during four periods (1942–1976, 1987–1992, 1994–1997, 2012–2020).

The inaugural edition as a professional competition was the 1942–43 Copa México, with Moctezuma as the first champions in history. The final edition was the 2019–20 Copa MX, with Monterrey as the last champions. In all, fifty-six editions of the tournament were held.

The purpose of the competition was to determine the national cup champions, thus distinguishing it from the national league title. The format was different from the local leagues as well, as it employed direct elimination and culminated in a final match. In May 2012, Liga MX president Decio de María announced the return and rebranding of the competition as Copa MX.

América was the most successful club with six titles, followed by León and Puebla with five titles each, Guadalajara, Atlas, Cruz Azul and Necaxa with four titles each. In all, twenty-two clubs have won the tournament at least once.
