Incentive to have money (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cent

'money' is the definition.
(eg denomination of dollars)

'incentive to have' is the wordplay.
'to have' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'CENT' is hidden in the letters of 'incentive'.

(Other definitions for cent that I've seen before include "Small monetary unit" , "One-hundredth of the basic monetary unit" , "One hundredth of a euro" , "Fractional monetary unit" , "One hundreth of a dollar" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and The Daily Express.
