How to Deliver Digital Products in GoHighLevel for E-Commerce Orders
If you sell digital products and manage projects in tools like ClickUp, you can still centralize your e-commerce workflows inside GoHighLevel. This guide walks you through how to configure products, offers, and workflows so customers automatically receive secure access to their digital content right after purchase.
Using GoHighLevel for digital fulfillment ensures your storefront, checkout, and delivery stay tightly integrated, reducing manual work and improving customer experience. Follow the steps below to set up products, links, and emails so every order results in immediate access to the correct digital asset.
GoHighLevel digital product delivery overview
In GoHighLevel, digital products are delivered through a combination of:
- Products and offers linked to your funnel or website checkout
- Post-purchase thank-you or order confirmation pages
- Automated workflows that send access links via email
- Order records stored in the Payments section
Your goal is to connect each product purchase to a specific digital asset or access method and then trigger a confirmation email that contains the correct link or instructions.
Step 1: Set up products in GoHighLevel
Begin by defining the items you want to sell as products so they can be used in funnels and checkouts.
-
In your sub-account, go to Payments > Products.
-
Click + New Product.
-
Enter the product name (for example, “E-Book Download” or “Course Access Pass”).
-
Add a description, price, and any relevant billing settings.
-
Save the product so it becomes available in order forms and checkouts in GoHighLevel.
Each digital product should map to one delivery asset, such as a download link, a members area, or a third-party course URL.
Step 2: Create offers and connect them to GoHighLevel funnels
Next, package your digital products into offers that can be sold on funnels or websites.
-
Navigate to Sites > Funnels (or Websites).
-
Open the funnel or page where you want to sell the digital product.
-
Add or edit your order form or checkout element.
-
In the checkout settings, select the product you created under the Products section.
-
Optionally, add order bumps or upsells using additional products configured in GoHighLevel.
This connection ensures every completed purchase is tracked in Payments and can be used to trigger fulfillment workflows.
Step 3: Configure the thank-you page for GoHighLevel orders
The thank-you page is often the first delivery point for your digital product.
-
In your funnel, identify the Thank You or Order Confirmation step.
-
Edit the page and include a clear confirmation message.
-
Add a button or link that will either:
- Send customers directly to the download or access page, or
- Inform them that details will arrive via email within a few minutes.
-
Save and publish your funnel.
For higher security or more complex access control, you can avoid placing the raw download link on this page and instead rely on the automated confirmation email from GoHighLevel.
Step 4: Prepare your digital access links for GoHighLevel
Before you automate fulfillment, you need a reliable destination for the product access link.
Common options include:
- A direct download URL hosted on your own site or cloud storage
- A course portal or membership area login page
- A private page containing embedded videos or additional files
Copy this URL so you can paste it into email templates and page elements inside GoHighLevel.
Step 5: Build a confirmation email in GoHighLevel
Your confirmation email is where most customers will retrieve their digital product or access instructions.
-
Go to Marketing > Emails in your GoHighLevel account.
-
Click + New to create an email template.
-
Give the template a clear internal name, such as “Digital Product Delivery – E-Book”.
-
Set a subject line like “Your Digital Purchase and Access Details”.
-
In the email body, include:
- A thank-you message
- Order confirmation or product name
- The access link or button that points to the digital asset
- Support contact information
-
Use personalization tags (name and product if available) to make the message feel tailored.
-
Save the template for use in workflows.
This email will be the primary delivery channel triggered every time a matching product purchase is completed in GoHighLevel.
Step 6: Create an automation workflow in GoHighLevel
Now connect the purchase event to your delivery email using a workflow.
-
Navigate to Automation > Workflows.
-
Click + New Workflow.
-
Choose Start from Scratch for maximum control.
-
Set the trigger to something like:
- Trigger: Payment > Order Completed, or
- Trigger: Purchase > Product Purchased (depending on your available options).
-
Filter the trigger so it only fires when the specific digital product is purchased.
-
Add an Action step: Send Email.
-
Select the confirmation email template you created earlier.
-
Optionally add a short delay (for example, 1–2 minutes) to mimic natural processing time.
-
Turn the workflow ON after testing.
Whenever a qualifying order is completed, GoHighLevel will automatically send the associated delivery email with the correct link.
Step 7: Test the digital delivery process in GoHighLevel
Always run a full test before sending live traffic to your funnel.
-
Open your live funnel or checkout page in a private browser window.
-
Complete a test purchase using a test card or low-price product if applicable.
-
Confirm that:
- The order shows up correctly under Payments > Transactions.
- The workflow in GoHighLevel is triggered.
- The confirmation email arrives in the inbox and spam folders are clear.
- The download or access link works and leads to the correct digital product.
If anything fails, adjust the workflow trigger filters, email template, or product mapping and run another test.
