Swap “payment gateway” and “manual payment” for “bank” and “transfer”
“payment gateway” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “bank” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “manual payment” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #14. “transfer” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

One page off on “manual payment”
#14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
