Boost Invoice Redirection Speed in GHL

If you’ve been using 2-in-1 documents to send proposals and contracts in GoHighLevel, you know how powerful that workflow can be. But until now, it came with a catch—slow invoice redirects that left your clients waiting… and sometimes bailing.

That’s officially fixed.

• Before: When someone clicked “Finish and Complete Payment,” they had to wait around 60 to 90 seconds before the invoice finally loaded. If there were recurring products in the document? It could take even longer. Not a great look.
• Now: That same action takes just 10–20 seconds—a massive time savings that keeps clients moving forward instead of wondering if something broke.
• Bonus: A new progress modal appears during the redirect. Instead of staring at a blank screen, clients now see a “Redirecting to Payment…” message with a visible progress bar.

This isn’t just about looks. GoHighLevel cleaned up the backend and added a new progress screen, so the whole payment process feels faster, smoother, and more reliable—for you and your clients.

Faster payments. Happier clients. Less friction.

This update isn’t just about shaving seconds—it’s about saving sales.

In the real world, every moment counts. When your client finishes a document and clicks “Complete Payment,” they expect something to happen fast. Every extra second is an opportunity for doubt, distraction, or drop-off. Now, with invoice redirection speed supercharged, GHL users finally get the responsiveness they’ve been missing.

Here’s why that matters:

• Reduces Abandonment – A long delay can feel like a tech glitch. Now your clients don’t second-guess whether the payment screen is broken—they get there in under 20 seconds.
• Streamlines Cash Flow – Faster redirects mean faster access to invoice redirection speed, which means faster payments. Simple math, big impact.
• Improves User Confidence – That new “Redirecting…” UI reassures users that everything’s working. Confidence leads to conversions.
• Boosts Agency Credibility – You’re white-labeling GHL, so slow redirects reflect on your brand. This update helps you look slick and professional.

If you’re an agency running recurring billing or selling services through contracts, this change delivers real-time wins.

You don’t have to activate anything or change your billing structure—this update is already live and working in the background. But to take full advantage of the improved invoice redirection speed, you’ll want to make sure your 2-in-1 documents are set up correctly with recurring products and payments enabled.

Here’s how to make it happen:

The main menu on the left side of your screen has all the key tools you’ll use for this process.
1.1 Go ahead and click on “Payments.” That’s where we’ll start.
1.2 Click on the “Documents” sub-menu.

2.1 If you’ve used this before, choose a saved document. If not, just click “New Document” to begin.
2.2 Add your proposal content and structure as needed.
2.3 Scroll to the “Product List” section of the document.

3.1 Click “Add an Item” and select a product marked as recurring.

4.1 Scroll to the Payment Settings section inside the document editor.
4.2 Toggle “Enable Direct Payments” to ON.
4.3 Select the payment provider you plan to use—Stripe, PayPal, or whatever you’ve connected.

5.1 Use the Send button in the top-right to email it directly.
5.2 Or copy the public share link to distribute it manually.

6.1 The client clicks “Finish and Complete Payment.”
6.2 They’ll now see a modal that says “Redirecting to Payment…” with a progress bar.
6.3 In just 10–20 seconds, they’re automatically redirected to the invoice screen.

That’s it. No extra settings. Just smarter speed behind the scenes.

Want to make the most of this speed boost? Here are a few quick ways to take full advantage of the faster invoice redirection flow inside GoHighLevel:

• Always Use Recurring Products in 2-in-1 Documents
  This speed boost currently triggers when recurring products are included. If you’re still using one-time items only, you’re missing out on the redirect upgrade.
• Set Client Expectations in Your Messaging
  In your email or SMS that delivers the document, add a quick line like:
  “After you click ‘Finish and Complete Payment,’ you’ll be automatically redirected to the invoice. It takes about 10 seconds.”
  That way, they know what to expect—and they wait for it.
• Preview the Experience Yourself
  Use a dummy contact and walk through your document-to-invoice flow. You’ll see exactly what your client sees, including the new “Redirecting…” UI modal.
• Test With Different Browsers
  Occasionally, browser extensions or client-side lag can still cause hiccups. Chrome and Safari are generally smoothest for document flows.
• Pair It With Automation
   Have GHL send out a thank-you email or text automatically after payment. When you pair that with the speed boost from the redirect, your workflow looks polished and pro.

Just a few adjustments can make your whole payment process feel more premium—and cut down on manual work.

This update isn’t just a tech improvement—it’s a business upgrade.

Every interaction your client has with your system reflects on your agency. Slow invoice redirects? That screams “clunky.” Fast, smooth, transparent transitions? That tells your clients you run a tight ship.

Here’s what this faster invoice redirection really delivers:

• Fewer Drop-Offs
  When clients aren’t stuck waiting, they don’t bail. That means fewer abandoned payments and more completed invoice redirection speed.
• More Revenue, Faster
  Clients who hit the payment screen faster are more likely to pay faster. That directly improves cash flow and shortens your sales cycle.
• Stronger Client Trust
  The new redirect UI reinforces trust. Clients see that things are working and feel confident proceeding. It’s the digital version of a firm handshake.
• Smoother SOPs for Teams
  If your VA or sales team sends 10+ documents a day, this small upgrade can save hours over a month in follow-ups and client confusion.
• Better White-Label Perception
  Agencies that white-label GHL want it to feel like high-end software. This redirect performance gives that professional-grade impression without any custom dev.

This is one of those under-the-hood updates that quietly boosts your client experience and helps you win more business—without adding any extra steps.

This GoHighLevel update may seem small, but the ripple effect is huge.

The redirect to invoice redirection speed is now ten times faster, so clients get to the payment screen quickly—no confusion, no delays, no drop-offs. Plus, the new progress screen shows them what’s going on, making the whole process feel a lot more polished.

It’s already live. No switches to flip. Just start using recurring products in your documents and enjoy the upgrade.

And remember: speed equals trust. When your system runs fast and feels easy to use, your clients notice—and trust you more.
