lump sums
One-time disbursements
A lump sum is a single payment of an entire amount owed, rather than a series of smaller payments over time: She took her pension as a lump sum instead of monthly checks.
The phrase often appears in discussions of settlements, inheritances, and retirement payouts.
As a modifier, lump-sum describes such arrangements: a lump-sum payment.
