# Why aren't my payment methods showing at checkout?

Your checkout page and any landing/product page checkout section are built from blocks — the payment options customers see only appear if you've added a **Payment Methods** block to that page's checkout area, separately from turning the payment method on in your store settings.

## Steps

1. Enable the payment methods you want to accept under **Store Settings → Payment methods** (e.g. Cash on Delivery, Stripe, PayPal).
2. Open the page editor for your checkout page, landing page, or product page.
3. Go to the checkout/express checkout section and make sure a **Payment Methods** block is added there — enabling a method in settings alone does not add it to the page.
4. If you want subtotal/total shown, add the **Subtotal Order** and **Total Order** elements to the order summary area of the checkout section.
5. Save and preview the page as a customer would see it to confirm the methods and totals display correctly.

## Common problems

- Enabled Stripe/PayPal but only Cash on Delivery shows (or nothing shows) → the checkout section is missing the **Payment Methods** block; add it directly in the page editor, then the enabled methods will appear.
- Customers get "Cash on delivery is not available" even though COD is disabled and another method is active → this also points to the checkout section missing/needing an updated **Payment Methods** block on that specific landing or product page — each page's checkout section is configured independently.
- "Buy Now" leads to a COD-style page even with COD disabled and PayPal enabled → add a **Payment Methods** element to that product page specifically and activate the desired method there.
- Subtotal/Total labels show but no numbers appear → re-add the **Subtotal Order**/**Total Order** elements; if values still don't populate after that, the page section itself may need to be rebuilt.
