GoHighLevel Payment Links Guide

ClickUp users and agency owners who are migrating to GoHighLevel often need a simple way to collect payments online without building complex funnels. This step-by-step guide shows you exactly how to set up, customize, and share payment links in GoHighLevel so you can start getting paid quickly and securely.

Payment links let you generate a simple URL that your clients can use to pay for products, services, or subscriptions. In GoHighLevel, these links are connected to your Stripe account and can be shared almost anywhere: email, SMS, chat, or even embedded in funnels and websites.

What Are Payment Links in GoHighLevel?

In GoHighLevel, a payment link is a hosted checkout page generated from a specific product or invoice. When your customer clicks the link, they see a secure Stripe-powered checkout where they can complete their purchase.

You can use GoHighLevel payment links to:

  • Sell one-time products or services.
  • Charge recurring subscriptions or memberships.
  • Collect deposits or booking fees.
  • Attach payments to opportunities or contacts in your CRM.

Because everything is created inside GoHighLevel, your team can easily track who paid, when they paid, and what they bought, all in one place.

Prerequisites Before Creating GoHighLevel Payment Links

Before you can generate payment links, make sure the following items are set up in your GoHighLevel account:

  • Stripe connection: Connect Stripe under your agency or sub-account payments settings.
  • Sub-account access: Log in to the correct GoHighLevel sub-account where you want to collect payments.
  • Products or invoices: Create at least one product or invoice that can be tied to a payment link.

Once these prerequisites are complete, you can start building and sharing payment links directly from the payments section in GoHighLevel.

How to Create Payment Links in GoHighLevel

Follow these steps to create a new payment link inside your GoHighLevel sub-account:

  1. Open the Sub-Account: From your GoHighLevel agency view, choose the specific sub-account where you want to manage payments.
  2. Navigate to Payments: In the left-hand menu, click on the payments or invoices section (label may vary slightly depending on interface updates).
  3. Create or Select a Product/Invoice:
    • If you already have a product or invoice, select it from the list.
    • If not, create a new product or invoice, adding a name, price, billing interval, and currency.
  4. Generate the Payment Link: After saving the product or invoice, look for an option such as “Create Payment Link” or “Get Payment Link” within the record details.
  5. Copy the URL: Once the link is generated, copy the URL provided. This is the payment link you can send to customers.

From this point, every time a customer uses the link, their payment will be processed through Stripe and logged inside GoHighLevel.

Configuring GoHighLevel Payment Link Settings

The exact options may vary, but in general, you can configure several important settings for each GoHighLevel payment link:

  • Product or plan details: Name, description, and pricing.
  • Billing type: One-time or recurring (subscription).
  • Trial or setup fees: Optional trial period or one-time setup charge if supported by the product.
  • Tax rates: Tax rules configured within your Stripe account and mapped through GoHighLevel.
  • Redirect behavior: Optional redirect URL after successful payment, such as a thank-you page or onboarding form.

Adjust these options before sharing the link so customers see the correct amount and payment terms when they land on your GoHighLevel checkout page.

How to Share GoHighLevel Payment Links

Once you have the URL, you can use GoHighLevel automation and communication tools to distribute your payment links wherever clients are most likely to see them.

Sharing GoHighLevel Links via Email

To share a payment link through email:

  1. Open the conversations or marketing email section in your GoHighLevel sub-account.
  2. Create a new email or select an existing template.
  3. Paste the payment link URL as a clickable hyperlink (e.g., “Pay Now” or “Complete Your Order”).
  4. Send the email to individual contacts or a list segment.

Because the link is hosted, your clients don’t need to log in; they just click and pay.

Sharing GoHighLevel Links via SMS

To send payment links through SMS inside GoHighLevel:

  1. Open the conversations or workflows area.
  2. Write an SMS message that includes a short prompt and the payment link URL.
  3. Send it manually from the contact record or automatically using a workflow step.

SMS is especially useful for reminders, overdue invoices, or quick one-click payment requests.

Using GoHighLevel Payment Links on Funnels and Websites

You can also embed GoHighLevel payment links into pages managed in your account:

  • Add the URL to buttons on funnel steps (e.g., “Checkout” or “Enroll Now”).
  • Link from a pricing section on your website.
  • Use the link in popups or call-to-action banners.

When visitors click the button, they are taken directly to the secure checkout related to that GoHighLevel product or invoice.

Managing Payments Collected With GoHighLevel Links

After your payment links are live, you can track and manage transactions inside GoHighLevel:

  • View payment history: Check the payments section to see completed, pending, or failed charges associated with each payment link.
  • Match payments to contacts: Each completed payment is linked to a contact record, giving you a full activity history.
  • Update opportunities: Trigger pipelines or automation whenever a payment is successful, so your sales team stays updated.
  • Handle refunds or disputes: Manage these in Stripe, and use the data in GoHighLevel to follow up with clients.

Keeping all these records together inside GoHighLevel makes it easier to report on revenue, retention, and campaign performance.

Troubleshooting GoHighLevel Payment Links

If customers report issues with a payment link in GoHighLevel, review the following:

  • Stripe status: Confirm that Stripe is still connected and active in your sub-account.
  • Product visibility: Make sure the product or invoice tied to the link has not been deleted or disabled.
  • Currency and price: Verify that the price and currency are correctly configured and supported by Stripe.
  • Link accuracy: Ensure the full URL is copied without edits or truncation before sending.

If the issue persists, consult the official GoHighLevel documentation for payment links at this support article or contact support through your account.
