The story

HighLevel is a horizontal marketing/CRM SaaS for agencies (white-labeled, resold to SMB clients). Embedded finance is a thin layer: the company exposes Payments & Invoicing as a feature but routes transactions through third-party PSPs (Stripe, PayPal, NMI, Authorize.net, Square, Adyen, Razorpay) chosen by the sub-account, rather than operating its own payments rail. The Marketplace/Payments API lets developers plug in additional processors.
