With the POP trial, I am pretty sure tickets were reimbursed and a load of vouchers would be on their way as a way of thanks.
Hopefully a similar carrot/stick approach is used in this trial.

As for prices going forward when the scheme is rolled out regionwide - I hope the PAYG prices are lower than cash fares to encourage uptake.
It seems pointless rolling the project out, if it is more convenient (and the same price) paying cash.
There needs to be an incentive.

Go Ahead did these pay as you go cards years and years ago, before all these 'go and saves' and buzzfares came into play. DCC told me a few years ago that their were hoping to bring out a pass that you can use on all bus operators in the County Durham area next year, but this was years ago.
