How to Collect Partial Payments and Deposits in GoHighLevel

If you are used to managing projects in ClickUp and now want to collect deposits or partial payments inside GoHighLevel, you can easily do this by combining Stripe products and payment links. This guide walks you through every step required to set up a professional partial payment workflow.

The method below uses Stripe as the payment processor that connects to your GoHighLevel account. You will create two Stripe products, generate a special payment link, and then use that link inside GoHighLevel funnels, websites, emails, or text campaigns.

Prerequisites for Using GoHighLevel Partial Payments

Before you configure partial payments in GoHighLevel, make sure the following items are ready:

• An active GoHighLevel account with admin access.
• A connected Stripe account inside GoHighLevel.
• Clear pricing for your main offer and the deposit amount you want to charge.

Once these basics are in place, you can start building the partial payment system that will work seamlessly alongside your current GoHighLevel automations.

Step 1: Create the Primary Product in Stripe for GoHighLevel

The first step is to create the main product in Stripe that represents the total value of your offer. This will later be linked to GoHighLevel through a Stripe payment link.

1. Log in to your Stripe dashboard.

2. Go to Products in the left-hand menu.

3. Click + Add product or Add product.

4. Enter a clear Product name (for example, “Website Design Package”).

5. In the Price section, set the total amount you normally charge for the full service or product.

6. Choose the appropriate currency and billing options as needed.

7. Click Save product.

This primary product represents the full price and will be the basis for the deposit structure that GoHighLevel will use.

Step 2: Add a Deposit Price to the Stripe Product

Next, you will add a second price to the same Stripe product, which will serve as the deposit or initial partial payment.

1. Open the product you just created in Stripe.

2. Scroll down to the Pricing section.

3. Click Add another price.

4. Set the deposit amount (for example, 30% or a flat dollar value of your choice).

5. Use the same currency as the main price.

6. Click Save to store the second price.

At this point, your Stripe product should contain two prices: the full amount and the deposit amount. These will both be selectable within your GoHighLevel payment link setup.

Step 3: Generate a Stripe Payment Link for GoHighLevel

To use partial payments inside GoHighLevel pages or funnels, you must create a Stripe payment link that includes both the full and deposit prices.

1. In Stripe, go to Payment Links from the main menu.

2. Click + Create payment link.

3. Search for and select the product you created in the previous steps.

4. Make sure both the full price and deposit price options are visible under the product.

5. Stripe will generate a Payment Link URL. Copy this link.

This payment link can now be used inside GoHighLevel to let your clients choose between paying the deposit or the full amount.

Step 4: Add the Stripe Payment Link Inside GoHighLevel

Now that you have the payment link from Stripe, you can embed or share it through different parts of your GoHighLevel system.

Using the Link in GoHighLevel Funnels or Websites

1. Log in to your GoHighLevel account.

2. Navigate to Sites and select either Funnels or Websites, depending on where you want to accept payments.

3. Open the funnel step or web page where you want to display the payment option.

4. Add a button element to the page.

5. In the button settings, choose the option to link to a URL.

6. Paste the Stripe payment link into the URL field.

7. Update the button text to something clear, such as “Pay Deposit” or “Complete Payment”.

8. Save and publish the funnel or page.

Visitors who click the button on your GoHighLevel page will be redirected to the Stripe checkout where they can select the deposit or full payment amount based on the options in your payment link.

Sharing the Link via GoHighLevel Campaigns

You can also share the same Stripe payment link through GoHighLevel automation tools:

• Insert the link into SMS campaigns or email campaigns.

• Use it inside workflows to send payment reminders.

• Add it to appointment confirmation messages for services that require a deposit.

This creates a flexible way to connect your Stripe checkout with the communication and automation features provided by GoHighLevel.

How Clients Experience Partial Payments in GoHighLevel

When clients click on your button or link in a GoHighLevel page, funnel, or message, they land on a Stripe checkout page. They will see:

• The product name you set in Stripe.

• The option to pay the deposit amount.

• The option to pay the full amount.

After they complete the payment, Stripe records the transaction and GoHighLevel can then use automations triggered by successful payments, depending on how you configure your workflows and integrations.

Best Practices for Using GoHighLevel with Partial Payments

To get the most value from this setup, consider the following tips:

• Clearly label the deposit option so clients know it is non-refundable if that applies.

• Use confirmation emails or SMS through GoHighLevel to restate the amount paid and remaining balance.

• Create tags or pipeline stages that update when a deposit is paid, so your team can follow up efficiently.

• Test the entire flow by creating a test link and processing a small payment before going live.

These practices align your Stripe payments with your GoHighLevel CRM, pipelines, and workflows for a streamlined client experience.
