CBT + mCM + Incentive
Participants in this arm will receive 12 sessions of cognitive behavioral treatment, mobile contingency management for alcohol abstinence, and a monetary incentive for 30-day abstinence at the 6-month follow-up.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Twelve in-person counseling sessions designed to assist participants with becoming abstinent from alcohol use (or reduce use).
Mobile Contingency Management (mCM): Abstinence (measured by breath alcohol) will be intermittently reinforced. For each breath alcohol concentration reading that tests negative, a participant will earn a virtual scratch-off lottery ticket that contains 100 different values.
Long-term incentive: This incentive is $300 for self-reported and bioverified 30-day abstinence from heavy drinking at the follow-up scheduled for 6-months after the initial quit date

CBT + mCM + no Incentive
Participants in this arm will receive 12 sessions of cognitive behavioral treatment and mobile contingency management for alcohol abstinence. They will not receive monetary incentive for 30-day abstinence at the 6-month follow-up.
