## **🔍 Overview**

Search Atlas integrates with GoHighLevel (GHL) to help agencies manage SEO services for their clients. The standard GHL integration is priced at **$79/month per sub-account**. This article explains how that pricing works, what discount options may be available, and how to submit a request for a custom introductory rate.

## **📊 Standard GHL Integration Pricing**

By default, each GHL sub-account connected through Search Atlas is billed at **$79/month**. This rate applies regardless of whether the sub-account belongs to an active client or a prospect you are onboarding. There is no automatic trial or reduced rate applied at the account level.

## **💰 Can I Get a Discounted Rate for Prospects?**

Some agency owners ask whether they can offer prospects a lower introductory rate — for example, **$37/month for the first 30 days** — before the price increases to the standard $79/month upon conversion. This type of tiered or introductory pricing is **not available as a self-serve option** in the platform at this time.

However, custom pricing arrangements may be considered on a case-by-case basis. To explore this, you will need to speak directly with the Search Atlas team through the in-platform chat. Here is what to prepare before reaching out:

- **The number of prospects** you are looking to onboard at the discounted rate
- **The proposed introductory period** (e.g., 30 days) and the price point you are requesting
- **Your expected conversion rate** or timeline for moving prospects to full-paying clients
- **Your current plan and account details** so the team can review eligibility

## **⚙️ How GHL Sub-Account Billing Works**

Understanding the billing mechanics can help you plan your prospect onboarding strategy:

1. **Sub-accounts are billed monthly** from the date they are connected to your Search Atlas workspace.
2. **Each sub-account is billed independently**, so adding a prospect sub-account triggers the standard monthly charge unless a custom arrangement is in place.
3. **Removing a sub-account** before the billing cycle renews will stop future charges, but partial-month refunds are subject to Search Atlas refund policy.
4. **Upgrades and changes** to a sub-account's status (e.g., prospect to active client) do not automatically change the billing rate — pricing is set at the account configuration level.

## **🛠️ Steps to Request a Custom Introductory Rate**

1. Log in to your Search Atlas account.
2. Open the chat widget in the **bottom-right corner** of the platform.
3. Type **human teammate** to be connected with a member of our team.
4. Explain your use case — include the number of prospects, the rate you are requesting, and the intended duration of the discount.
5. The team will review your account and respond with available options.

**Note:** Custom pricing requests are not guaranteed and are reviewed based on account standing, volume, and business context. Submitting a request does not confirm approval.

## **💡 Tips for Managing Prospect Costs**

While waiting for a custom pricing decision, here are a few ways to manage costs when onboarding GHL prospects:

- **Only connect sub-accounts when ready to begin active SEO work.** Avoid connecting a prospect's sub-account before you need to run campaigns or audits.
- **Use Search Atlas reporting tools** to demonstrate value to prospects quickly, which can shorten the conversion timeline and reduce the number of months billed at prospect stage.
- **Track your sub-account list regularly** to ensure you are not paying for inactive or stalled prospect accounts.
