The eCommerce Enrollment method enables a site to facilitate course purchases for potential customers. Users can add courses to their cart, proceed through the checkout process, and upon successful payment, they are automatically enrolled in the course.

Typically an LMS site is configured with enabled eCommerce Enrollment method. If for any reason you don’t see eCommerce option you must enable it first to use it. To enable eCommerce on your site:

1. Navigate to Settings -> Enrollment Methods from left navigation.
2. Click icon to enable eCommerce Enrollment method.
