Where to find it

The new payment functionality is located within AI Studio. HighLevel has not published the exact navigation path yet, but it will live within the AI Studio interface for app creation and management.

How agencies will use this

An agency building a custom booking or service app in AI Studio for a client can now integrate payment processing directly into that app. For example, a spa client could have an AI Studio app where customers select a service (e.g., '60-minute massage'), add an upsell (e.g., 'hot stone add-on'), apply a coupon, and complete the purchase, all within the app experience. This removes the need to redirect to an external HighLevel funnel or a third-party checkout page for payment, creating a smoother user journey and keeping the client's customers within the branded app environment. The payments will be processed via HighLevel Payments and linked to HighLevel Products configured for the client.

Our take

This is a major update. The ability to handle payments directly within AI Studio apps significantly expands their utility. While HighLevel has not confirmed the full scope or rollout details, this feature has the potential to streamline client operations and enhance user experience for apps built on the platform. Agencies should monitor for further details on availability and implementation.
