The commercials sold by local channels pay for the show, as do payments by the makers of products mentioned during the show (such as the automobile manufacturers whose cars are shown).

Local stations or groups of stations pay a fee to the syndication company to air the show - these fees can be tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars per show. The local stations sell commercial time to sponsors. It is a multi-million dollar operation, as indicated by the hefty salaries paid to various game show hosts.
