# Adding Payment Gateways in Upmind
> Customise payment options
Adding **payment gateways** in Upmind allows you to accept a variety of payment methods in your e-commerce store. You can also control visibility, supported currencies, and provide custom instructions for each gateway.
This guide will show you how to add, edit, disable, and delete these gateways, and add payment instructions.
## **Adding a new payment gateway**
1. Log in to your Upmind admin dashboard.
2. Click **Settings** at the bottom of the left menu and select **Payment Providers**.
3. Click **Add Payment Provider**.
4. Choose a payment provider from the list.
5. Fill in the required fields.
**Each payment option requires different information. We selected the Stripe option for this example. To obtain specific information, like an API key, go to your payment provider account.**
6. Test your **credentials** to confirm the correct setup. (Optional)
7. Use toggle switches to enable or disable credit card acceptance.
8. Select which currencies you want to accept for this gateway.
9. Specify the countries where this payment provider should be available.
10. (Optional) Add payment instructions for clients.
11. Click **Update** to save your settings.
## **Editing payment visibility**
You can control which payment provider options the client can access on the checkout page.
To control visibility, toggle the switch **ON** (green) to show the gateway at checkout.
**Example**: The client sees two payment options.
Toggle the switch **OFF** (grey) to remove the payment option from the checkout and disable the tool on your e-commerce site.
**Example**: The client sees one payment option.
## **Editing a payment provider**
To edit an existing payment provider, locate it in the list and click the gear icon. You can also delete any payment providers.
Make any necessary changes and click Update.
**Example**: We add instructions for offline bank deposits.
**Payment provider instructions display on the checkout only if the client selects that payment option.**
