What am I talking about? Well when I was in elementary school in the
United States about three decades ago, if you did good work the
teacher would reward you by giving you a shiny sticker in a star shape
that you could stick onto your notebook:

http://www.amazon.com/Teacher-Created-Resources-Products-Valu-Pak/dp/B004E2VMGG/ref=pd_sbs_op_7

So what I mean is: I would be happy to give someone a token of
appreciation for reviewing that ticket. If you review a *lot* of
tickets then I'll send you a physical shiny gold star out of a Valu
Pak of shiny stars from amazon.com. Even if you review just #755, I'll
give you some sort of rare and unforgeable digital thing such as a
BitCoin. :-)
