Why can't I pay with cash for this game?

The organizer has restricted you to online payment for their games, so the cash option is disabled at checkout. In checkout the cash method (“Pay host directly”) appears greyed out with a note that it is unavailable, and you can still join by paying online, with your card, your Playbox wallet, or another online method. Organizers apply this when a player has repeatedly skipped cash payment or no-showed. It only affects that organizer’s games; you can still pay cash elsewhere where it’s offered.
