trying to book 5 lake hike near Matterhorn

so i came upon a website that sells Return tickets to 5lake hike near Matterhorn.
https://www.matterhornparadise.ch/en/book/tickets/kombitickets

It was 22.50CHF with half card.. - but the checkout had this warning...
"Please note that discounted tickets are exclusively available with a valid SBB half-fare/GA travelcard and must be charged onto the SwissPass card. Please carry the SwissPass card with you (mobile SwissPass is not possible)."

What does that mean?? They don't accept HFC from mobile app?? It must be charged onto Swisspass card?? How do I get that??
Now I am confused..
Help please..

The Swiss Pass card is a chip card used to store commuter passes, ski passes etc. As a tourist you're unlikely to have that. As there is no need to buy this ticket in advance that is not a big issue. Just buy in Zermatt at the station.
