Can’t Show Invitation to Bouncer Glitch in Payday 3, Explained
At present, there’s a glitch preventing Payday 3 players from showing off their VIP invitation at Rock the Cradle. The issue occurs when you’re prompted to flash the bouncer your invite, and it seems to disappear without a trace. Needless to say, this consequently bars you from accessing the VIP lounge.
Fortunately, there is another way to get past the bouncer without verification. Those who run into the glitch might find this method particularly helpful, as you won’t need to restart the heist. Of course, there’s also a way to resolve the issue at its root rather than simply bypassing it.

The easiest way to fix the glitch that prevents you from handing in your VIP invite is also the most drastic. Unfortunately, your best bet is to exit the game and start over from the main menu. Simply restarting the heist may not help to fix the withstanding glitch, but it’s also worth a shot.
In any case, starting from square one can be a hassle in itself, considering there are plenty of other bugs standing in your way. If you don’t want to risk connectivity and matchmaking errors just yet, then you might want to attempt to finish the heist by using an alternative method to get past the bouncer.
