Pay what may be provided for a walk-over (7)

I believe the answer is:

pathway

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for a walk-over' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'pay what may be' is the wordplay.
'may be' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pay'+'what'='paywhat'
'paywhat' with letters rearranged gives 'PATHWAY'.

'provided' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pathway that I've seen before include "Walking track" , "route? ..." , "A trodden track" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
