Took me all of 20 seconds to google this, just saying.

"Early Access is a full purchase of a playable game. By purchasing, you gain immediate access to download and play the game in its current form and as it evolves. You keep access to the game, even if the game later moves from Early Access into fully released."

you have to read the fine print for that game. some early access games come with a free final version when it is released. sometimes you get a discount, free in game items or maybe nothing at all. each game is different so you need to verify with the developer as to what you get for paying to beta test the game for them.

i know steam faq says this but i've seen games not stick to this posted policy a number of times. i do not pay to beta test so i have no idea how steam has handled when it happens but i have seen too many cases of early access ending when final release happens.
