## Get paid when an order is placed

You can let clients pay the moment they order. NIZU then creates the invoice for the order automatically, shows the client the payment buttons of your payment methods, and moves the order forward when the payment comes in.

### Set it up

1. Make sure at least one payment method is active in **Settings → Payment methods** (for example Stripe, Mollie, iyzico or PayPal).
2. Go to **Settings → Sales & finance → Store**.
3. Tick **Show payment option after submitting the order**.
4. Choose the **Order status after payment**, for example "Paid" or "Processing".
5. Optional: tick **Don't allow clients to pay if company info is not filled**. The client must then complete company name, VAT number, address, city, country and zip code before paying, which you need for a correct invoice.
6. Click **Save**.

### What the client sees

At checkout the button reads **Save & continue**. After it, the client lands on the invoice of the order, dated today, with the **Pay Invoice** buttons. They can also pay later from **Invoices** in their portal.

### What you see

- The order shows its invoice in the **Invoices** card and in the Invoices column of the orders list, with the payments under **Invoice payment list**.
- When a payment is recorded, the order moves to the **Order status after payment**.

### Good to know

- The status only moves if the order is still in your **first** order status (the one at the top of the list). An order you already moved by hand is left alone.
- Any payment on the invoice counts, also a partial one.
- This automatic change does not e-mail the client. Change the status by hand if you want them told.
- With payment at checkout on, visitors must log in or create an account before ordering: **Accept order before login** is switched off.
