Coach gets no new extra money (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bonus

'extra money' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'coach gets no new' is the wordplay.
'coach' becomes 'bus' (synonyms).
'gets' means one lot of letters goes inside another (gets can mean captures or absorbs).
'new' indicates an anagram.
'no' is an anagram of 'on'.
'bus' going around 'on' is 'BONUS'.

(Other definitions for bonus that I've seen before include "Premium" , "bribe" , "Extra dividend" , "Extra payment for good results" , "Payment additional to the expected or usual" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
