It is most often used as money or reward, but can sometimes have other meanings. The Oxford English dictionary gives the definition: "A thing that motivates or encourages someone to do something:", while giving a good example sentence: ‘give farmers an incentive to improve their land’
So it can be something which motivates someone, which is often a reward, but not always.
