Buyout

Cash paid to the touring party in place of a meal (meal buyout) or other rider item.

In practice

A buyout should be confirmed with the promoter or venue before show day, including the amount, who it covers, and when it will be paid. Keep it separate from a meal that the venue is providing so the tour does not plan twice or expect both forms of the same item.
