# Products: How to Set Up a Payment Plan

Payment plans allow your customers to buy products by paying in installments over time, instead of the full price upfront. This feature can make your higher-priced items more accessible to a wider range of customers, potentially boosting your sales and customer satisfaction. In this article, we’ll walk you through the process of setting up payment plans for your products.
