Yoco Payments Are Now Live on the GoHighLevel App Marketplace
Ask any South African running their business on GoHighLevel where the platform falls short, and you'll hear the same answer: payments. GoHighLevel leans on Stripe, Stripe doesn't operate in South Africa, and that single gap has forced local agencies and business owners into manual invoices, off-platform links, and a lot of "just send me an EFT" messages that quietly cost them sales.
Today there's another way to close that gap. The Yoco integration for GoHighLevel is now live on the GHL App Marketplace — letting South African businesses accept card payments in rands directly inside their funnels, order forms, invoices, and payment links.
Card payments, the way South Africa already takes them
Yoco is one of the most recognised payment names in South Africa. If you've bought anything from a local small business in the last few years, there's a good chance Yoco was involved somewhere in the transaction. That trust matters at checkout — customers are far more likely to complete a purchase through a brand they already know.
Until now, putting Yoco behind a GoHighLevel checkout meant clunky workarounds. With this integration, Yoco becomes a native payment option inside GoHighLevel. Your customer enters their card details and pays in ZAR without ever leaving your page, funds settle to your existing Yoco account, and the transaction flows back into GoHighLevel so your records and automations stay clean.
No redirects, no separate payment pages, no asking customers to trust an unfamiliar gateway.
What you can do with it
Once connected, Yoco works as a payment provider across GoHighLevel:
Funnels and order forms — sell directly from your sales pages in rands
Invoices and payment links — send a request, get paid by card
Web forms and checkouts — capture payment wherever it fits your flow
Yoco currently supports once-off card payments — Visa and Mastercard, both debit and credit. If your business runs on recurring billing or subscriptions, our Payfast for GoHighLevel integration handles that case; for straightforward card checkout, Yoco is fast to set up and instantly familiar to your customers.
Built for South African businesses
Yoco settles in rands to South African bank accounts, so you price in ZAR, get paid in ZAR, and skip the currency-conversion headaches and Reserve Bank restrictions that come with trying to force a foreign gateway to fit. Your books stay simple and your customers see prices in the currency they actually use.
For agencies, it's one less objection on the table. You can bring South African clients onto GoHighLevel and point them at a payment provider they already recognise — no lengthy explanation of why Stripe isn't an option.
Set up in minutes
There's no code to write and nothing to host. Getting live is quick:
Find the Yoco app in the GoHighLevel App Marketplace and install it (Agency or Subaccount level).
Enable it on the subaccounts where you want to accept payments.
Connect your Yoco account by pasting in your Test and Live secret keys from your Yoco dashboard, then set Yoco as your default provider.
Most businesses are taking live payments within minutes. For a full walkthrough with every step, follow our step-by-step Yoco setup guide.

Why it matters
Payment friction is the quietest cause of lost revenue there is. When a customer reaches checkout and the payment method looks unfamiliar, many simply don't finish — and they rarely tell you why. By making Yoco a first-class option inside GoHighLevel, you meet South African customers with a brand they trust, in a currency they expect, without breaking the single-system workflow that made you choose GoHighLevel in the first place.
Need a custom GoHighLevel build?
Every business runs a little differently. If you have questions about the Yoco integration, need a different payment gateway connected to GoHighLevel, or want a bespoke GHL marketplace app built around your own workflow — that's exactly what we do.
We build and ship production-grade GoHighLevel marketplace apps and payment integrations. If you've got a specific requirement, get in touch with our team and tell us what you're trying to achieve. We'll tell you honestly what's possible and what it takes.
