In MCO, they have been 200-600% pay to the first caller to claim it. As someone already said, there is nothing stopping CS from putting extra incentive on trips that go through the JA process, this just ensures it will always pay a minimum of an extra 25%(VJA) or 50%(JA), per the CBA. And most importantly it will ensure that trips will be offered in seniority order.
