You need to be aware of intangible incentives too, like the pride and recognition that comes from Open Source Software participation. This is a powerful incentive, as evidenced by the long (usually unpaid) hours that people devote to it. I could see how a particular app could create social incentives like this, which are known to be as important as monetary ones. This may fall afoul of the rules as much as paying money to people for good ratings.
