If we assume only monotonicity (dominated gambles are never chosen), paying for one random period (the RPS mechanism) is typically the only incentive compatible way to pay subjects. Paying every period is similarly justified if we assume a ‘no complementarities at the top’ (NCaT) condition. Which should you use? That’s your decision.
