Implementing Payment Center in Salesforce Communities comes with a great deal of benefits. It lets your community users help themselves by viewing and paying their own invoices, managing their payment profiles, viewing installments and many others.

If you are new to Salesforce Community and you want to utilize this feature in Salesforce, here's a quick guide on how to set it up:

Enable Salesforce Digital Experience for Customer Community User

Enable Salesforce Digital Experiences, configure a domain name, and then enable standard external profiles.

1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Digital Experiences.

2. Click Settings.

3. Select the Enable Digital Experiences check box.

4. Enter the domain name. Click Check Availability.

5. Click Save. Click OK.

6. From the Settings, scroll to Role and User Setting and select Allow using standard external profiles for self-registration, user creation, and login checkbox.

7. Click OK. Click Save.

Create an Account for Customer Community User

Create an account and associate it with a contact.

1. In the App Launcher, search for and open Accounts.

2. Click New to add required details and then save the account.

Create a Customer Community User

Create a contact and enable it as customer community user.

1. In the App Launcher, search for and open Contacts.

2. Click New.

3. In the Account Name field, you must select the account you created for your customer community in an earlier step.

4. Save the contact.

   5. Open the new contact you created, and click the dropdown menu to select Enable Customer User.

   6. In the New User page, select the following:

       User License: Customer Community

       Profile: Customer Community User

  If you’ve cloned an existing customer community profile, then in the profile field, select the cloned profile name.

   7. Define other required fields, such as email and nickname.

   8. Click Save. Click OK.

  If you receive an error "Portal Account Owner has No Role," assign a profile to the owner of the customer community account. Then repeat this procedure.
