Buying NI Contributions - How?

Not sure if this is really the correct forum section, but as the NI Contributions are for retirement planning I thought I'd ask here.
For the last tax year 18/19 my wife didn't earn enough income to reach the LEL threshold.
So in order to credit this year for her NI record, my understanding is that she can buy some NI Class 2 contributions.
Is this something I have to do proactively, or will the gap just appear in the online record?

Her NI record will show gaps later in the year when the records are updated for 18-19 and she can then pay. Class 2 are for self employed, class 3 are for employed / unemployed.
