You can launch a white-label software business on GoHighLevel in about 7 days. SaaS Mode lets you resell the platform under your own brand, set your own prices, and bill clients automatically. It is part of the GoHighLevel Pro plan at $497 per month. This guide breaks the launch into 7 daily steps, from upgrading to Pro to taking your first paying client.
| Detail | Value |
|---|---|
| Time | About 7 days |
| Plan required | GoHighLevel Pro ($497 per month, includes SaaS Mode) |
| Difficulty | Intermediate |
| Prerequisites | A GoHighLevel agency account on the Pro plan; A Stripe account for billing your clients; A domain you can point at GoHighLevel |
Step 1: Upgrade to the Pro plan and turn on SaaS Mode
SaaS Mode lives on the GoHighLevel Pro plan. Upgrade first, then enable SaaS Mode from the agency view.
Open your agency settings and upgrade the account to the Pro plan at $497 per month. The Starter ($97) and Unlimited ($297) plans do not include SaaS Mode, so this step is required.
You can explore the platform first on the 30-day free trial through RocketLauncher, then move to Pro when you are ready to switch SaaS Mode on.
Step 2: Connect Stripe so the platform bills your clients
SaaS Mode uses Stripe Connect to charge your clients and route the money to you.
In the agency view, open SaaS Configurator and connect your Stripe account. Once connected, GoHighLevel can charge your clients on a schedule and hand them a sub-account under your brand.
Step 3: White-label the domain and the look
Point your own domain at the platform so clients see your brand, not GoHighLevel.
Add a custom domain such as app.yourbrand.com and set your logo, colors, and login page. Your clients log in to your software, with your name on it.
Step 4: Build one snapshot as your product
A snapshot is a saved template of funnels, workflows, and pipelines. It becomes the product your clients buy.
Pick one niche and build a snapshot for it: the funnels, the follow-up workflows, the pipeline, and the calendars that niche needs. When a client signs up, this snapshot loads into their new sub-account automatically.
Step 5: Design your SaaS plans and prices
Create two or three plans and set what each one costs and includes.
Create a starter, a pro, and an unlimited plan. Set the monthly price, decide which features each plan unlocks, and turn on rebilling so usage like SMS, email, and AI is marked up to your price.
Step 6: Test the full signup as if you were a client
Sign up through your own order form to confirm billing and the sub-account both fire.
Use a test card on your Stripe account to buy your own plan. Confirm the payment goes through, a sub-account is created, and your snapshot loads.
Step 7: Take your first paying client
Send the order form link to a real prospect and onboard them.
Share your plan page with one warm prospect. When they pay, the platform creates their sub-account and loads your snapshot, so they have a working system on day one.
How to test it worked
Buy your own plan with a Stripe test card. A successful launch shows three things at once:
- The Stripe charge succeeds and shows up in your account.
- A new sub-account appears under your agency with your branding.
- Your snapshot loads its funnels, workflows, and pipeline into the sub-account.
Troubleshooting
SaaS Mode is missing from my settings
You are not on the Pro plan. SaaS Mode is only on the $497 per month Pro plan, not on Starter or Unlimited.
My client was not charged
Check that Stripe is connected in the SaaS Configurator and that the plan has a price set. A plan with no price will not bill.
The snapshot did not load into the new sub-account
Make sure the plan is set to load your snapshot on signup. Open the plan settings and pick the snapshot before sharing the order form.
Frequently asked questions
What plan do I need to launch a white-label SaaS on GoHighLevel?
You need the GoHighLevel Pro plan at $497 per month. SaaS Mode is included on Pro and is not available on the Starter ($97) or Unlimited ($297) plans.
Can I really launch in 7 days?
Yes, if you focus on one niche and one snapshot. The platform handles billing and sub-account creation, so most of the 7 days goes into building one strong snapshot and your pricing.
Do my clients see GoHighLevel?
No. With white-label set up, clients log in to your domain, see your logo, and pay your prices. The GoHighLevel name is hidden.
How do I make money on top of the platform?
You charge your clients more than your platform cost, and you mark up usage like SMS, email, and AI through rebilling. The difference is your margin.
How do I try this before committing?
Claim the 30-day free trial through RocketLauncher, explore SaaS Mode, then upgrade to Pro when you are ready to take clients.
