Cash rewards refer to a financial incentive or payment given to an individual, usually in exchange for a specific action or performance. In other words, it is money that is given as compensation for something done or achieved. This can be in the form of bonuses, commissions, prizes, or any other type of monetary reward that is given directly to the recipient. The term "cash rewards" typically refers to a lump sum payment made at one time rather than being spread out over time through salary or wages.
