# How do I link menus and stores to payment accounts?

If you have already set up Oddle Payouts for one menu and need to connect another menu or additional stores to a payment account, this article explains your options.

***

## Linking a menu to an existing bank account

Link a new menu to an existing billing account when you want:

* Statements for multiple menus consolidated under the same billing organisation, and
* All payouts directed to the same bank account.

**Steps:**

1. On the bank account page of the new menu, click **Link Existing Bank Account**.

2. Select the existing bank account from the list.

3. Confirm by clicking **Link Existing Bank Account**.

4. Tick the relevant store checkboxes to associate those stores with the bank account.

## When to create a separate billing account instead

Do not link to an existing account if you need:

* **Separate statements** for different menus — create a separate billing account under a different billing organisation name for each menu. Payouts can still go to the same physical bank account number.
* **Different bank accounts** for different stores — create separate billing accounts and connect each to a different bank account number.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Billing organisation names cannot be changed once created. Contact <support@oddle.me> if you need to update yours.
{% endhint %}

## Assigning stores to unique payment accounts (store-level payment assignment)

This feature lets you collect payments into separate bank accounts for individual stores. To enable it, contact your account manager.

Before activating, note:

* This feature cannot be deactivated once enabled.
* Offline payment methods (cash, bank transfers) cannot be assigned per store using this feature.
* A store cannot be linked to more than one account of the same payment type.

**Once enabled:**

1. Go to the **Payment** tab for the relevant menu and click **Create a new payment method**.
