Something that encourages a someone to do, or not do, something.

Explanation:

For example a positive incentive is when business owners give puntuality bonuses to their employees, which are basically an amount of money a month just for arriving on time to work, a negative incentive can also be seen as punishments, for example when parents take their kids cellphones because they got bad grades, that is a negative incentive.
