Create the First Payment Profile

Start with a simple profile that has no conditions. This confirms website, audience and payment-method assignment before condition logic is introduced.

Example goal

Allow the store's existing bank-transfer and check or money-order methods for the Wholesale customer group on the Main Website.

Create the profile

1. Open Customers > Payment Profiles.
2. Select Add New.
3. Enter a descriptive name such as Main Website - Wholesale Standard.
4. Set a unique priority, for example 100.
5. Select the website.
6. Select the Wholesale customer group.
7. Select only the payment methods this audience may use.
8. Leave Conditions empty for the first test.
9. Save the profile.

The payment-method list is refreshed for the selected website. If you change the website, review the selected methods again before saving.

Test the profile

Use a real checkout flow with a fictional test customer in the Wholesale group:

1. Confirm both selected methods work when Payment Profile is disabled.
2. Enable Payment Profile.
3. Add an ordinary shippable product and proceed to payment.
4. Confirm that only the selected, otherwise available methods remain.
5. Repeat with a customer group that is not assigned.
6. Confirm that the result matches the configured no-match policy.

Add one condition

After the basic profile works, add one easy-to-reproduce condition, such as a subtotal threshold. Test below, exactly at and above the boundary.

If another assigned profile has a lower priority number and also matches, that earlier profile wins. See Priority and First Match.
