pay-out
Winnings finally received
A pay-out is money that is disbursed, typically from an institution to individuals—insurance claims, lottery winnings, investment returns, or settlement awards.
The term emphasizes the direction of money flowing outward from a source: The insurance pay-out covered all the medical bills.
Pay-out can also describe the ratio or schedule of such disbursements, as in a slot machine's pay-out rate or a dividend pay-out policy.
