This video explains how to set up Pay Now as an independent feature.

If you can’t watch the video in full screen, open the video on a new tab: [Set Up Pay Now and Expand Your Revenue Streams](https://play.vidyard.com/WpVggZxqjM62fQFFWugBFB).

The steps are also listed here.

1. At the top of the page, click ![Setup](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-commerce-payments-264-0-0-production-enus/c04ba30f-6dde-4ea7-949b-4f77b22b9fcb/payments/images/comm_setup_icon_no_border.png) and select **Setup**.
2. In the Quick Find Box, find, and select **Commerce Setup Assistant**.
3. Under Prepare Your Org for Salesforce Payments, click **Get Started**.
    
    The assistant enables Payments, and returns you to the assistant's main page.
4. Under Get Paid Easily with Pay Now, click **Get Started**.
5. Confirm that Pay Now is selected as the way you want to sell, and then click **Next**.
6. Enter the required ship-to country, language, and currency, and then **Next**.
7. Enter a store name.
    
    Don’t include an apostrophe.
8. Enter a string in the **URL Path**. Only alphanumeric characters are allowed. Don’t enter a full URL path, and don’t use hyphens, slashes, or spaces.
    
    The URL is this string added to your Salesforce domain name. For example, if the domain is MyDomainName.my.site.com, and you enter jewelry, the URL becomes MyDomainName.my.site.com/jewelry.
9. Click **Start Selling**.
    
    The Pay Now store is created, and you’re placed on the store home page where you see a list of tasks.
10. Brand your store.
    1. Enter a URL for a branding site, or click **Skip**. Upload any logos or images, and specify any other branding in the fields provided.
    2. Finish branding setup.
11. Set up checkout so your store can accept payments.
    1. In the Payments section of the Checkout page, click **Add a Merchant Account**.
    2. Select the configuration option that fits your situation, and follow the guided steps to link the merchant account to a payment gateway.
        
        If you use an existing payment gateway account, it must be one that was previously established from Salesforce Payments.
    3. Refresh your browser page, and check the merchant account status. If the status is Restricted, click **Complete Setup**, and complete the registration at the payment gateway.
    4. After you return to the checkout page, refresh your browser page and confirm that the status is Complete.
12. (Optional) Select payment methods. Credit cards are available by default. To add other options, click **Add Payment Methods**, make your selections, and save your changes.
13. If you add PayPal as a payment method, modify your PayPal account so that customers have to provide a contact phone number during checkout.
    1. Log in to your PayPal account from your account settings.
    2. Select **Website payments** | **Website preferences**.
    3. Turn on Contact Telephone Number.
14. Make your store available online by clicking **Activate**.
    
    A Pay Now URL is linked to the active store. You can verify the URL on the Payments page in Setup ![Setup](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-commerce-payments-264-0-0-production-enus/c04ba30f-6dde-4ea7-949b-4f77b22b9fcb/payments/images/comm_setup_icon_no_border.png).

![Important](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-commerce-payments-264-0-0-production-enus/c04ba30f-6dde-4ea7-949b-4f77b22b9fcb/images/icon_important.png)

Important If you have more than one Pay Now store, the Pay Now Site URL on the Payments page must be for the store in use. Otherwise, you can't generate payment links. The Pay Now Site URL is on the Payments page in Setup ![Setup](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-commerce-payments-264-0-0-production-enus/c04ba30f-6dde-4ea7-949b-4f77b22b9fcb/payments/images/comm_setup_icon_no_border.png).

After your store is ready, create payment links that direct customers to a payment page to complete a transaction. You can send links to your customers directly or associate them with any Salesforce record to integrate payments into any existing work flow.
