VIP Fail...How Would You Handle This Situation?

This happened recently in the VIP area of a club I visit semi regularly. The VIP areas are separated by a curtain so you can hear what goes on in the adjacent area. The dancer is a long time dancer there. Once they got back to the VIP area the guy claimed he didn't have enough money. They hadn't begun yet. It's $20 to get in and $40 per song full-nude, so the $$$ add up quickly in this place. The dancer says he can pay by credit card. She'd run the card on her phone. I had not previously experienced this. And it strikes me as inviting all sorts of issues. First the club doesn't take cards, not even for the cover charge. The club is BYOB. And the only things they sell are sodas, bottled water, Red Bull and plastic cups. It almost seems to me like me she would be cheating the house's percentage of the dances if she ran it on her phone. Plus who knows how secure the card transaction would be? I don't know how it ended as my dances started and I shifted my attention. I am curious if anyone has ever run into this and how you handled it. I would have probably bailed without getting any dances.

How so? You said the club didn't take credit-cards so it's not as she's bypassing the club's credit-card charge.
There's no honor in strip-clubs - i.e. every club I know where the dancer has to give a cut of each dance to the club, has someone keeping track of the # of songs that dancer is the dance-area/booth; and the dancer then pays the house $X for each song she was in there.
