Bootstrap 5 (update 2021)
Since flexbox is still used the centering methods in Bootstrap 5 work the same way. Columns can be centered using offset, auto-margins or justify-content-center (flexbox).

Bootstrap 4 (original answer)
There are multiple horizontal centering methods in Bootstrap 4...
-
text-center
for centerdisplay:inline
elements -
offset-*
ormx-auto
can be used to center column (col-*
) - or,
justify-content-center
on therow
to center columns (col-*
) -
mx-auto
for centeringdisplay:block
elements insided-flex
mx-auto
(auto x-axis margins) will center display:block
or display:flex
elements that have a defined width, (%, vw, px, etc..). Flexbox is used by default on grid columns, so there are also various flexbox centering methods.

In your case, use mx-auto
to center the col-3
and text-center
to center it's content..
<div class="row">
<div class="col-3 mx-auto">
<div class="text-center">
center
</div>
</div>
</div>

or, using justify-content-center
on flexbox elements (.row
):
<div class="container">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-3 text-center">
center
</div>
</div>
</div>

<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col d-flex justify-content-center">
CenterContent
</div>
</div>
</div>
Enable 'flex' for the column as we want & use justify-content-center
Add class text-center
to your column:
<div class="col text-center">
I am centered
</div>
<div class="container">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-3 text-center">
Center text goes here
</div>
</div>
</div>
I have used justify-content-center
class instead of mx-auto
as in this answer.

If your content is a set of buttons that you want to center on a page, then wrap them in a row and use justify-content-center.
Sample code below:
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<button>Action A</button>
<button>Action B</button>
<button>Action C</button>
</div>
