GoHighLevel Pricing

GoHighLevel is one of the most powerful, all-in-one platforms for marketing agencies, but its pricing page can be a source of significant confusion. With three different tiers, add-ons, and the mysterious “SaaS Mode,” it’s easy to feel uncertain about which plan is the right investment for your business. The fear of making the wrong choice is real. Choosing the wrong plan can mean overpaying for features you don’t need or, worse, hamstringing your growth by not having the features you do. This isn’t just a software decision; it’s a foundational business model decision. This guide will break down the GoHighLevel pricing structure in plain English, going far beyond the surface-level feature list. We’ll explore the strategic implications of each plan, uncover the true usage-based costs, and provide a clear framework for you to make a decision that aligns with your agency’s long-term vision. As GoHighLevel consultants, we help agencies navigate this choice every day. Let’s cut through the noise and find the perfect plan for you.

The Three Core GoHighLevel Plans: A Strategic Overview

GoHighLevel’s pricing is built around three main tiers. The primary difference between them is the number of client accounts (sub-accounts) you can manage and, most importantly, the ability to resell the software as your own. Think of them not just as feature levels, but as distinct business models. Choosing the wrong plan is one of the most common mistakes we see in new GHL accounts. If you’re not sure which tier fits your business model, we can walk you through it — we’ve set up accounts across all three plans and know exactly where each one breaks down. See If We’re a Fit →

Plan	Monthly Price	Core Feature	Who It’s For
Agency Starter	$97/month	3 Sub-Accounts	A single business or a new agency managing up to 3 client accounts.
Agency Unlimited	$297/month	Unlimited Sub-Accounts	The standard plan for marketing agencies managing multiple clients.
Agency Pro	$497/month	Unlimited Sub-Accounts + SaaS Mode	Agencies who want to white-label and resell GoHighLevel as their own branded SaaS product.

The Agency Starter Plan: $97/month – The Solo Operator’s Toolkit

The Starter plan gives you access to almost all of GoHighLevel’s powerful features—the CRM, funnels, email marketing, workflows, etc.—but with one major limitation: you’re capped at 3 sub-accounts (separate client accounts). Once you need a fourth, you’ll need to upgrade. This plan is a good fit if:

• You are a solo business owner (e.g., a coach, consultant, or local business) who wants to use GoHighLevel to run your own marketing and sales.
• You are a brand new freelancer who wants to learn the platform inside and out before upgrading to serve clients. It’s the lowest-cost way to get hands-on with the full platform.

This plan is a bad fit if:

• You are a marketing agency planning to manage more than 3 clients. Each client needs its own sub-account with its own contacts, pipelines, and branding, so once you pass 3 you’ll need to upgrade. Trying to squeeze multiple clients into one account is a recipe for data chaos and privacy breaches.

The Agency Unlimited Plan: $297/month – The Classic Agency Model

This is the flagship plan for most marketing agencies. It includes everything in the Starter plan but removes the cap on sub-accounts. You can create unlimited client accounts, each with its own dedicated CRM, pipelines, funnels, and users. This is the model where you do the work *for* your clients. This plan is a good fit if:

• You are a marketing agency that manages campaigns and systems on behalf of your clients. Your team logs in to the client’s sub-account to build funnels, run ads, and manage their pipeline.
• You want to give each client their own portal to view their leads and campaign performance, providing transparency and value.
• Your business model is purely service-based, and you are not yet interested in reselling the software itself.

The Agency Pro Plan: $497/month – The Agency as a Tech Company

The Agency Pro plan is where GoHighLevel transforms from a tool you use into an asset you sell. It includes everything in the Agency Unlimited plan, plus SaaS Mode and the ability to white-label the mobile app. What is SaaS Mode? SaaS Mode allows you to resell the GoHighLevel platform as your own branded software. You can create your own pricing plans, bill your clients automatically through Stripe, and keep 100% of the revenue. For example, you could create a “Pro Plan” for $197/month that gives your clients access to the CRM, funnels, and email marketing features, all under your own brand. This is a fundamental shift from a “done-for-you” service to a “do-it-yourself” software offering, often supplemented with your services. This plan is a good fit if:

• You want to create a new, high-margin recurring revenue stream for your agency.
• You want to offer a more “sticky” solution to your clients, reducing churn by embedding your software into their daily operations.
• You want to fully brand the GoHighLevel experience, including the desktop and mobile app, as your own. See our white-label setup guide for more.

The “Hidden Costs” of GoHighLevel: A Transparent Breakdown

While the monthly subscription is the main cost, there are usage-based fees for sending emails, texts, and making calls. These are not “hidden,” but they are variable and important to understand. GoHighLevel passes through the direct costs from its providers (like Twilio and Mailgun) with a small markup. This is a key area where the Agency Pro plan shines, as you can rebill these costs at a profit.

Service	Approximate Cost to You	Example Re-billing Rate (SaaS Mode)	Your Potential Profit
Emails (LC Email)	$0.675 per 1,000 emails	$1.00 per 1,000 emails	$0.325 per 1,000 emails
SMS (LC Phone – US)	$0.0079 per segment	$0.01 – $0.02 per segment	$0.0021 – $0.0121 per segment
Phone Calls (LC Phone – US)	$0.014 per minute	$0.02 – $0.03 per minute	$0.006 – $0.016 per minute

Crucially, on the Agency Pro plan, you can set your own rates for these services and rebill your clients at a profit. For example, you could charge your client $0.01 per SMS, making a small margin on every message they send. This can create a significant, passive revenue stream at scale.

Which Plan is Right for You? A Simple Decision Tree

1. Are you a marketing agency that serves clients?
   • No: The Agency Starter plan is perfect for you.
   • Yes: Move to question 2.
2. Do you want to white-label and resell the software to your clients as your own SaaS product?
   • No, I just want to manage my clients’ accounts for them: The Agency Unlimited plan is your best bet.
   • Yes, I want to create a new recurring revenue stream: The Agency Pro plan is the clear choice.

If you’re ready to move forward and want your account built correctly from day one — right plan, right architecture, right workflows — that’s exactly what we do. See If We’re a Fit and we’ll take it from there.

Our Recommendation: Start with the End in Mind

For any serious marketing agency, the decision is between the Agency Unlimited and the Agency Pro plan. While it might be tempting to start with the $297 plan to save money, we strongly encourage our clients to consider the long-term value of the Agency Pro plan. The extra $200/month is not a cost; it’s an investment in a second, more scalable business model. The ability to create a sticky, branded software product for your clients is a powerful differentiator. It transforms your agency from a service provider into a technology partner, dramatically increasing client retention and lifetime value. When a client’s entire business—their CRM, their funnels, their automations—runs on *your* software, they are far less likely to leave. You are no longer a line item they can cut; you are the engine of their business.
