# Provide User Access

Does your user have a Payments license?

          

Users must have a Payments license before they can be given access to PayLink.

## Assign PayLink Licenses

You will need to assign the Blackthorn PayLink license to all users who need access. To assign users a PayLink license, complete the following steps.

1. Click the **Gear** icon in the upper right-hand corner.
2. Click **Setup**.
3. Type “Installed Packages” in the Quick Find box.
4. Click Installed Packages.
5. Click **Manage Licenses** next to Blackthorn | PayLink.
6. Click **Add Users**.
7. Check the box next to the Available Users that you need to assign licenses to.
8. Click **Add**.

## Assign Permission Sets

Next, you will need to add the appropriate Permission Sets to your users. This will grant them the ability to see the necessary Blackthorn objects/records within Salesforce.

Administrative users will need the Blackthorn | PayLink (Admin) permission set while Managers and End Users will need the Blackthorn | PayLink (User) permission set.

You can assign one or more users to a permission set by [Assigning a User to a Permission Set](/v1/docs/paylink-provide-user-access#assign-a-user-to-a-permission-set). Or you can assign one or more permission sets to your users by [Assigning a Permission Set to a User](/v1/docs/paylink-provide-user-access#assign-a-permission-set-to-a-user).
