GoHighLevel SaaS Reselling Add-Ons Setup Guide

If you are moving from ClickUp task tracking or another platform into building a true SaaS agency model, understanding how to configure GoHighLevel SaaS add-ons is essential. This guide walks you through how to sell, price, and manage these add-ons so you can grow recurring revenue while keeping billing and limits under control.

The instructions below are based on the official GoHighLevel documentation and focus on reselling add-ons inside your SaaS plans.

What Are GoHighLevel SaaS Reselling Add-Ons?

In GoHighLevel, SaaS reselling add-ons are extra products and services that you can include on top of a standard SaaS subscription. These add-ons are billed directly to your client and then passed through to you from GoHighLevel.

Common examples of resellable items include:

  • Reputation management tools
  • AI conversation usage
  • Premium integrations or usage-based services

Each add-on can be attached to a SaaS plan and controlled with limits so you can avoid overuse and surprise costs.

Key Concepts for GoHighLevel SaaS Add-Ons

Before setting anything up, it helps to understand how GoHighLevel structures SaaS add-ons.

  • Add-on SKU: A specific product you are reselling (for example, a phone number add-on or AI usage).
  • SaaS plan mapping: Linking an add-on to a particular plan so it is automatically offered or controlled.
  • Usage and limits: How GoHighLevel tracks client consumption and enforces caps.
  • Billing and invoicing: How your client is charged and how you are billed by GoHighLevel.

These fundamentals allow you to build predictable, scalable pricing packages using the platform.

How GoHighLevel SaaS Add-On Billing Works

GoHighLevel uses an automated billing flow for SaaS reselling add-ons so you can focus on sales instead of manual accounting.

Client Billing Logic in GoHighLevel

When you attach an add-on to a SaaS package, the client is billed according to the pricing and frequency you configure. Typically, this follows your existing subscription billing cycle.

Key behaviors include:

  • Automatic recurring charges for subscription-based add-ons
  • Usage-based charges where applicable (for example, per unit or per seat)
  • Proration rules depending on mid-cycle changes

The platform handles the math and ensures charges are aligned with the client’s active plan.

How You Are Charged by GoHighLevel

Behind the scenes, GoHighLevel charges your agency account for the wholesale or base cost of each add-on. Your margin comes from the difference between the price you set for the client and what GoHighLevel charges you.

This makes it crucial to set prices that cover your costs and still remain attractive to your customers.

How to Configure GoHighLevel SaaS Add-Ons

Use the following steps to configure reselling add-ons on your SaaS plans inside GoHighLevel:

1. Access the SaaS Config Area in GoHighLevel

  1. Log in to your GoHighLevel agency dashboard.
  2. Navigate to your SaaS Config or SaaS settings area.
  3. Locate the section dedicated to Add-ons or reselling configuration.

This central area is where all SaaS plan and add-on mapping is managed.

2. Review Available GoHighLevel Add-On Options

  1. Inside the add-ons section, examine the list of products that can be resold.
  2. Note which items are usage-based and which are flat-fee.
  3. Check any default costs or wholesale prices provided by GoHighLevel.

Understanding the list helps you design packages that fit your niche and revenue targets.

3. Map Add-Ons to Specific SaaS Plans

  1. Select the SaaS plan you want to enhance.
  2. Choose the add-ons to attach to this plan.
  3. Set whether each add-on is included by default, optional, or available as an upgrade.

Mapping add-ons at the plan level ensures that when a client signs up for a given plan, the correct products and limits are applied automatically.

4. Configure Pricing and Limits

For each GoHighLevel add-on you resell, you must define both price and usage limits.

  1. Set the retail price your client will pay (per month, per cycle, or per unit).
  2. Review the underlying cost from GoHighLevel to ensure your margin is sufficient.
  3. Define usage caps where supported (for example, number of seats, messages, or AI usage).
  4. Specify what happens at the limit (block, overage charges, or prompt upgrade).

Clear pricing and limit rules protect your margins and prevent billing disputes.

Managing Client Usage for GoHighLevel SaaS Add-Ons

Once your clients start using the system, ongoing management is critical.

Monitor Usage Dashboards

  • Use the GoHighLevel usage or reporting dashboards to review consumption by account.
  • Identify clients approaching limits so you can offer upgrades proactively.
  • Look for unusual spikes that might indicate misconfigurations or abuse.

Consistent monitoring keeps your SaaS offering predictable and cost-effective.

Handle Upgrades and Downgrades

When a client needs a change in their add-on usage:

  1. Open the client’s SaaS subscription in GoHighLevel.
  2. Adjust the plan or attached add-ons as needed.
  3. Confirm how proration and billing will be applied for the new configuration.

Always communicate billing effects in advance so clients understand the impact of changes.

Best Practices for Selling GoHighLevel SaaS Add-Ons

To maximize revenue and minimize support issues, follow these best practices when designing and selling add-ons in GoHighLevel.

Bundle Add-Ons Into Clear Packages

  • Create simple tiers (for example, Starter, Growth, and Scale) with predefined add-ons.
  • Avoid overwhelming prospects with too many separate micro-charges.
  • Reserve custom add-on combinations for higher-value or enterprise clients.

Set Sustainable Margins

  • Always compare your retail price to the cost from GoHighLevel.
  • Include a buffer for support time and potential overages.
  • Review margins regularly as your client base grows.

Explain Limits Transparently

  • Document what each add-on includes and its caps.
  • Share this documentation with new clients during onboarding.
  • Clarify what happens at or above limits (pause, overage fee, or forced upgrade).
