Notes

• Integration setup: Manual payment methods can be set up independently from any other Online Payment method.
• Recurring Products: Manual payment methods will not appear at checkout if a recurring product is part of the order.
• Payment Collection: The collect order flow is applicable only for manual payment method orders. Once an order is marked as paid, this status cannot be reverted.
• Visibility of Payment Methods: If the payment method is not enabled for either E-commerce Stores or Order Forms, it will not be visible at checkout.

Simultaneous Setup: Both Cash on Delivery and Custom Payment Methods can be set up simultaneously.
