There is a bonus for winning, the League Bonus.
Elo matching (Note 1), tries to give you a 50/50 change of winning a match (yes this is simplified). If you lose, you lose a little PvP Rating, but if you win, you gain more than you lose (huge gains for beating someone several League above you during first 4 PvP Matches). Skipping a lot of the technical side, eventually Elo matching finds the League you have the best chance of winning 50/50, and you get a bonus in Marks based on your League (Note 2)
When you improve your character, Elo will notice you trouncing your opponents and increase your League, giving you more bonus in Marks. This is the main incentive for getting a full set of PvP Gear (+20% VS Player, -20% VS Monster for a full set of 1h Gear or 2h Gear).
So the Elo matching has a built in system for giving Bonus Marks to the winner.

In a simplified world, with perfect Elo matching, you will take 20,000 PvP Bouts to get Feat "Win 10,000 PvP Matches". Also, since you need less Leagues with less players (so everyone can find a match), the more players the more Leagues so the more Marks and Medals *everyone* gets. Get your Guild involved in PvP if you want more Marks.
