I believe the answer is:

cough up

(Other definitions for cough up that I've seen before include "Clear throat and pay what you owe" , "Clear throat to part with money" , "Pay money with some reluctance - clear throat" , "Pay out under duress" , "(Reluctantly) contribute" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
