 Payment methods
 ===============
 
-To add a payment method, you first need to create it. Go to :menuselection:`Point of Sale -->
-Configuration --> Payment Methods --> New`, and set a name. Check :guilabel:`Identify Customer` to
-allow this payment method *exclusively* for registered customers.
+Configure a payment method with Odoo Point of Sale to provide customers with various payment
+options, including cash, card payments through a :ref:`configured payment terminal
+<pos/terminals/configuration>`, :doc:`online payments </applications/finance/payment_providers>`,
+or :ref:`customer accounts <pos/payment_method/configuration>`.
 
-Then, select the :guilabel:`Journal`. Choose :guilabel:`Cash` to use this payment method for cash
-payments, or :guilabel:`Bank` to use it for card payments.
+To create a payment method, go to :menuselection:`Point of Sale --> Configuration --> Payment
+Methods`, click :guilabel:`New`, and follow the next steps:

+#. Enter a name for the payment method.
+#. Enable the following options if needed:
+
+   - :guilabel:`Online Payment`: To link the payment method to a :doc:`payment provider
+     </applications/finance/payment_providers>` and enable online payments, select a provider in
+     the :guilabel:`Allowed Providers` field or click :icon:`fa-arrow-right` :guilabel:`Payment
+     Providers` to install one.
+   - :guilabel:`Identify Customer`: Force the selection of a :ref:`customer account
+     <pos/payment_method/configuration>` during the payment.
+#. Select the preferred :doc:`Journal </applications/finance/accounting/get_started/journals>` to
+   record all transactions.
+#. Select the appropriate :guilabel:`Point of Sale` to enable the payment method.
+#. Set the :guilabel:`Integration` field to one of the following options:
+
+   - :guilabel:`None required`: For cash payments.
+   - :guilabel:`Terminal`: :ref:`Set up a terminal <pos/terminals/configuration>` and allow card
+     payments.
+   - :guilabel:`Bank App (QR Code)`: Add at least one :ref:`bank account
+     <accounting/journals/bank>` to the journal to enable :doc:`QR code payments
+     </applications/sales/point_of_sale/payment_methods/qr_code_payment>` with a bank app. Select a
+     :guilabel:`QR Code Format` in the form.
+#. Save.
 
 .. note::
-   Selecting a :guilabel:`bank` journal automatically adds the :guilabel:`Use a Payment Terminal`
-   field in which you can add your :doc:`payment terminal's information
-   <payment_methods/terminals>`.
+   - The :guilabel:`Delivery Payment` option links a payment method to online orders placed through
+     :doc:`Urban Piper </applications/sales/point_of_sale/online_food_delivery>`. Select the
+     appropriate :guilabel:`Delivery Provider` to associate with the payment method.
+   - If the Accounting app is installed, the :guilabel:`Intermediary Account` field appears to
+     record temporary entries until reconciliation for better traceability; leave the field empty
+     to use the company's default :ref:`receivable account
+     <accounting/accounts-receivable-payable>`. Selecting a :ref:`journal
+     <accounting/journals/bank>` displays the :ref:`Outstanding Account
+     <accounting/journals/outstanding-accounts>` field.
 
-.. seealso::
-   :doc:`payment_methods/terminals`.
+.. tip::
+   - Use a dedicated :ref:`cash journal <accounting/journals/cash>` to record cash payments.
+   - Activate at least one :doc:`payment provider </applications/websites/ecommerce/payments>` to
+     allow online payments and add at least one bank account to the journal to enable QR code
+     payments through bank apps.
+   - Always set the :guilabel:`Journal` to :guilabel:`Bank` when :ref:`configuring a payment
+     terminal <pos/terminals/configuration>`.
 
-Once the payment method is created, you can select it in your POS settings. To do so, go to the
-:ref:`POS' settings <configuration/settings>`, click :guilabel:`Edit`, and add the payment method
-under the :guilabel:`Payments` section.
