How to Redirect Users in GoHighLevel After Contract Signing
In this guide, you will learn step by step how to redirect a user to a specific page after signing a contract inside GoHighLevel. If you are familiar with project tools like ClickUp, this will feel similar to building automated workflows: once a contract is signed, GoHighLevel will automatically move the opportunity to a new stage and send the user to the exact page you want.
This process relies on opportunity pipeline stages and automation triggers. By the end, you will have a fully working redirect flow that improves user experience and ensures every signed contract leads to the correct next step.
Why Use GoHighLevel Redirects After Contract Signing?
Redirecting users after signing a contract in GoHighLevel creates a smooth, guided experience. Instead of leaving users on a confirmation screen, you can send them to:
- A thank-you or onboarding page
- A membership or course access page
- A scheduling or next-steps page
- A payment confirmation or upsell page
By combining GoHighLevel contracts, opportunities, and automations, you can precisely control what happens after a signature is recorded.
Prerequisites for the GoHighLevel Contract Redirect
Before setting up the redirect, make sure these items are ready in your GoHighLevel account:
- An existing pipeline where opportunities are tracked
- A specific pipeline stage that will represent “Contract Signed”
- A contract workflow or process that moves an opportunity when the contract is completed
- The URL of the page where you want users to land after signing
Once these are in place, you can connect the contract signing event to a redirect using GoHighLevel triggers and actions.
Step 1: Create or Confirm the Contract Signed Pipeline Stage in GoHighLevel
The redirect logic depends on a specific pipeline stage that indicates the contract is signed. This will be used as the trigger condition.
-
Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
-
Navigate to Opportunities and open the pipeline you use for this workflow.
-
Check if there is a stage dedicated to signed contracts (for example, “Contract Signed” or “Signed & Onboarding”).
-
If none exists, create a new stage that clearly represents the moment a contract is fully signed.
This stage will be the key reference point for your GoHighLevel trigger.
Step 2: Ensure the Contract Moves the Opportunity to the Correct Stage
Next, make sure that whenever a contract is signed, the related opportunity is automatically moved into the “Contract Signed” stage.
-
Locate your contract workflow or automations in GoHighLevel.
-
Edit the workflow that handles contract sending and tracking.
-
Add or confirm an action that updates the opportunity’s pipeline stage to the new “Contract Signed” stage when the contract status becomes signed.
-
Save the workflow so the opportunity is consistently updated when a contract is completed.
Having this update in place ensures that GoHighLevel can detect the signed status via the pipeline stage and trigger the redirect sequence.
Step 3: Build a GoHighLevel Trigger Based on Pipeline Stage Change
With the stage ready, create a trigger that fires whenever an opportunity reaches the “Contract Signed” stage.
-
In GoHighLevel, go to Automations or Triggers (depending on your interface version).
-
Click Create Trigger to start a new automation.
-
Set the trigger event to something like Opportunity Stage Changed or the equivalent option available in your GoHighLevel account.
-
Configure the trigger filter so it only fires when:
- The pipeline equals your selected pipeline, and
- The stage equals your “Contract Signed” stage.
-
Give the trigger a clear name such as Redirect After Contract Signed.
This GoHighLevel trigger is the foundation that will start the redirect sequence immediately after the contract is signed.
Step 4: Add the Redirect Action in GoHighLevel
After configuring the trigger, add an action that sends the user to your desired page. Depending on your specific setup, the action can be implemented in different ways, such as:
- Sending an email with a direct link
- Sending an SMS with a redirect link
- Adding a page redirect inside a funnel or website that is shown post-signature
To connect the trigger with a redirect-style action in GoHighLevel:
-
Inside the trigger you created, click Add Action.
-
Choose an action that delivers or initiates the redirect, for example:
- Send Email – include the URL where the user should go next.
- Send SMS – place the redirect URL in the message body.
- Add to Workflow – send the user into a workflow that uses a funnel step or page that auto-redirects.
-
Paste the exact URL of your desired destination page (thank-you, onboarding, dashboard, etc.).
-
Save the action to make sure it is tied to the pipeline stage change.
While GoHighLevel does not force a browser redirect from the contract itself, this setup ensures that immediately after the contract is signed and the stage changes, the system automatically guides the user to the next page.
Step 5: Test the GoHighLevel Redirect Flow
Testing is critical to verify that the GoHighLevel automation behaves as expected.
-
Create or use a test contact and opportunity in the relevant pipeline.
-
Send a test contract to this contact from your GoHighLevel account.
-
Complete the contract signature as if you were the client.
-
Confirm that:
- The opportunity moves to the “Contract Signed” stage.
- The trigger fires correctly.
- The email, SMS, or redirect method delivers the correct page URL.
-
Open the URL and verify that it loads the exact page you intended to use after contract signing.
If anything is missing, return to your GoHighLevel trigger and actions, adjust filters or URLs, and re-test until the flow is seamless.
Best Practices for GoHighLevel Contract Redirects
To keep your automation clear and scalable, follow these best practices:
- Name pipeline stages clearly so anyone on your team knows which stage indicates a signed contract.
- Use descriptive trigger names in GoHighLevel, such as “Contract Signed → Redirect to Onboarding.”
- Keep URLs updated whenever you change your onboarding or thank-you pages.
- Log communications in the contact record so you can track when the redirect link was delivered.
- Document your process so other users can easily maintain or modify your GoHighLevel setup.
