# Payments in Lerian Console

> Issue boletos, pay bills (DARF and utilities), and manage payment operations through the Payments plugin for Midaz in Lerian Console.

**Payments** is a managed plugin for **Midaz** in Lerian Console that lets you issue boletos and pay bills — including DARF tax payments and utility/concessionaire bills — directly from the Console. Like other Midaz plugins (such as the Fees Engine), it is provisioned for your organization and accessed from the product launcher. This section walks you through how to use the Console to issue boletos, run bill payments, and manage payment operations.

<Warning>
  Payments is only available if you've acquired the Payments product. Want access? [Get in touch with our team](https://lerian.studio/contact) to learn more.
</Warning>

## Activating the Payments plugin

***

Payments is delivered as a **managed plugin**, in the same way as the Fees Engine. Once the plugin is provisioned for your organization, you can enable it from the [Plugins Settings](/en/lerian-console/midaz-console/plugin-settings) page.

To start using Payments:

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Make sure the Payments plugin has been acquired and provisioned for your organization. If it isn't available yet, [contact our team](https://lerian.studio/contact).
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Open the **product launcher** in Lerian Console and select **Midaz**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    In the **PLUGINS** section, select **Settings** > **Plugins**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Enable **Payments**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Accessing Payments

***

To access Payments, select it from the **PLUGINS** section in the Midaz module.

## Permissions and RBAC

***

Access to the Payments plugin is controlled through role-based access control (RBAC). Permissions are managed the same way as other Midaz plugins, via [Access Manager](/en/lerian-console/settings/am-creating-application).

Typical permissions include:

* **View** — list and inspect boletos and bill payments.
* **Create** — issue new boletos and submit bill payments.
* **Manage** — cancel or act on existing payment operations where the operation state allows it.

Assign these permissions to the relevant roles so that only authorized users can issue payments. A user without Payments permissions will not see the plugin in the product launcher.
