How to Create a Product and Attach It to a Membership Course Offer in GoHighLevel
Using GoHighLevel to sell memberships is a powerful way to monetize your knowledge, and it can work smoothly alongside tools such as ClickUp for planning and tracking. This guide walks you step by step through creating a product, configuring its settings, and attaching it to a membership course offer so users can purchase course access with a single checkout flow.
Prerequisites for Using GoHighLevel Membership Products
Before you set up a product and connect it to a membership offer in GoHighLevel, confirm the following items are in place:
- You have an active GoHighLevel account with access to the membership area.
- Your payment gateway (Stripe or equivalent) is connected in your GoHighLevel settings.
- You have at least one membership product or course created in the Membership section.
- You have permission to edit funnels, websites, and membership offers in your sub-account.
If you need broader implementation help with funnels, automations, or membership strategy around GoHighLevel, you can consult specialists at Consultevo.
Step 1: Open the Products Area in GoHighLevel
Start by accessing the billing and product configuration area where all purchase items are managed.
-
Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
-
Select the appropriate sub-account where your membership course is hosted.
-
Navigate to the Payments or Products section (depending on your interface version).
In this section, you can create standalone products, subscription items, and other billable elements that can later be linked to your membership offers.
Step 2: Create a New Product in GoHighLevel
Now you will create a product that represents the membership course offer your customers will purchase.
-
Click the New Product or Add Product button.
-
Enter a clear Product Name that matches your course or bundle (for example, “Facebook Ads Masterclass”).
-
Add a concise Description that explains what the buyer gets upon purchase.
-
Specify the Price, Currency, and Billing Type:
- One-time payment.
- Recurring subscription (monthly, yearly, etc.).
- Trial period if you want to offer temporary access before full billing.
-
Connect the product to the appropriate payment gateway configured in GoHighLevel.
Make sure product names and pricing are consistent with what is described on your sales page so users have a seamless buying experience.
Step 3: Configure Product Settings for Membership Access
After creating the basic product, adjust the settings so that it will later grant access to the correct membership area in GoHighLevel.
- Tax settings: Choose whether tax is applied and configure the tax rate if needed.
- Refund policy: Decide how refunds are handled for this specific product.
- Billing cycles: For subscriptions, confirm the renewal interval and any trial or setup fees.
- Internal notes: Add internal notes to clarify which membership course this product is intended to unlock.
These settings ensure accurate billing and clear internal organization when multiple offers are active in your GoHighLevel account.
Step 4: Open the Membership Area and Course Offer
With the product configured, you are ready to attach it to a membership course offer in GoHighLevel.
-
From the main navigation, go to the Membership or Sites > Memberships section.
-
Locate the Course or Membership Product that you want to sell.
-
Open the specific Offer linked to that course. The offer is what defines how the course is packaged for sale.
Each offer in GoHighLevel can be tied to different products, price points, or access levels, allowing you to create flexible pricing structures around the same core content.
Step 5: Attach the Product to the Membership Offer in GoHighLevel
Now link your newly created product to the membership offer so that purchasing the product unlocks the course content.
-
Inside the selected Membership Offer, look for the Products or Pricing section.
-
Click Add Product or a similar option to connect an existing product.
-
From the product list, choose the product you created in GoHighLevel for this course.
-
Confirm the price, billing interval, and any trial options that are carried over from the product configuration.
-
Save or update the offer to finalize the connection.
Once this is complete, whenever a user purchases that product, they will be enrolled into the configured membership course associated with the offer.
Step 6: Connect the Offer to Your Checkout or Funnel Page
To sell your new membership offer, attach it to a checkout page or funnel step inside GoHighLevel.
-
Go to Funnels or Websites in your GoHighLevel account.
-
Select the funnel or page where you want users to complete their purchase.
-
Edit the Order, Checkout, or Order Form step.
-
Choose the membership Offer (which already has the correct product attached) as the item to sell.
-
Customize the checkout design, fields, and confirmation messages.
When customers go through this funnel, they will purchase the product and automatically gain access to the membership area specified by the offer.
Step 7: Test the Membership Purchase Flow in GoHighLevel
Always test the full flow before sending traffic to your checkout page.
-
Use a test mode or a low test price in your payment gateway connected to GoHighLevel.
-
Walk through the funnel as a new user, completing the purchase.
-
Check that:
- You receive confirmation emails or automations set up inside GoHighLevel.
- The test user automatically receives access to the correct membership course and lessons.
- The payment is recorded correctly under Payments or Transactions.
-
Log in as the test user to confirm that all course modules and content appear as expected.
If anything is missing, revisit the membership offer settings and verify that the correct product and course are linked.
Troubleshooting Membership Product Issues in GoHighLevel
If users are not gaining access after purchase or if charges are incorrect, review the following areas:
- Confirm the product is correctly attached to the intended membership offer.
- Verify the offer is correctly assigned to the checkout form or funnel step.
- Ensure the payment gateway in GoHighLevel is active and not in test mode for live sales.
- Check that the user used the same email address for payment and membership login.
