die Differenz zahlen


Explanation:
...in welchem Fall der erfolgreiche Anbieter die Differenz zwischen dem Preis der Waren ... zahlt.
"Ausgleichen" ist nicht eindeutig; ein Ausgleich in Form von Materialien (z.B. Warenlieferung) wäre damit nicht unbedingt ausgeschlossen. Der englische Terminus impliziert jedoch eine Ausgleichszahlung.
