A quick definition of kickback:
A kickback is when someone receives a part of the money they were paid, usually because they were forced to or made a secret agreement. For example, if a contractor pays a city official 5% of the money they received for a government contract, that's a kickback. It's like a secret payment. This is not a good thing to do and is also called a payoff. A kicker is an extra charge or penalty added to a loan, and a kickout clause is a rule in a contract that lets someone end or change the contract if something specific happens.
