The Hammers found themselves behind at half time after Cherries midfielder Harry Arter scored his first Premier League goal.
But Payet, making his first start in more than two months following a knee injury, pulled his side level after 67 minutes with a stunning free-kick.
 
Seven minutes later he teed up Enner Valencia before the Ecuadorian scored a brilliant free-kick of his own to secure West Ham's third league win in as many games.
"It was a team win but Payet made the difference," said Bilic. "West Ham fans love that kind of player with a bit of magic and he has got more than a bit.

The Upton Park boss added: "What I admire most is his character, because that is what all true champions have got. 
"When he makes a mistake - and I am talking about training here - he is crazy and angry at himself and that is what is makes him a leader."
