Everything ShortlyLink Can Do
A complete link platform for affiliate marketers — from smart redirect targeting and real-time analytics to conversion tracking, fraud protection, and a public API.
Link Management
Create, organize, and control every short link.
Custom & auto short codes
Auto-generate an 8-character code or claim a custom branded back-half with charset and reserved-word protection.
AI Suggest
Generate a brandable code, human title, and tags from any destination URL — with a deterministic fallback.
Bulk import
Create up to 500 links in one paste with per-row error reporting and shared campaign, tags, domain, expiry, and UTMs.
Auto-branded links
Set a default verified domain and every new link — including bulk imports and API calls — is branded automatically.
Scheduling & lifecycle
Activate at a start date, auto-expire at an end date, and enable or disable any link on demand.
Password protection
Gate a link behind a branded unlock page — the password is never exposed in the URL.
Parameter passing
Forward a visitor’s own query parameters to the destination, with per-link all / none / allow-list control.
Smart Redirect Targeting
One short link, many destinations — geo → rotation → A/B → deep link.
Geo-targeted redirects
Route visitors to different URLs based on their country.
Weighted URL rotation
Split traffic across multiple destinations by percentage, like a 70/30 test.
Deep links
Send mobile users straight into your iOS or Android app with a web fallback.
Cloaking & social previews
Serve rich Open Graph / Twitter Card meta to crawlers while humans redirect normally.
Retargeting pixels
Fire Facebook, Google, TikTok, and sandboxed custom pixels before forwarding the visitor.
Sub-50ms redirects
Case-insensitive short-code resolution engineered for speed.
QR Codes
Design-grade codes that stay scannable, for every link and page.
Pattern & corner styles
Square, dots, rounded, or classy modules with square, rounded, or circular finder patterns.
Centre logo
Drop your logo into the middle — error correction is raised automatically so the code still scans.
Colours & frames
Any foreground and background colour, plus a captioned frame in box, rounded, or banner style.
Four download formats
PNG, SVG, JPEG, and print-ready PDF — all rendered from one source so they never drift apart.
Saved per-link design
A code re-downloaded months later is identical to the one already printed on your collateral.
Bulk QR export
Select any number of links and download every code as a single ZIP.
Scan tracking
QR scans are counted separately from direct clicks and bio taps across every report.
Landing page codes
Generate the same fully-styled QR for any landing page URL, not just links.
Analytics & Reporting
Real-time, detailed analytics with fraud traffic excluded automatically.
Custom dashboards
Build your own dashboards from 19 widget types, reorder and resize them, and pick which one you land on.
Dashboard overview
Links, clicks, unique clicks, conversions, and activity over time with adaptive hour/day/week/month bucketing.
Data history & custom ranges
Preset windows up to a year, or any from/to range — with the earliest available date reported so a picker can bound itself.
Live click feed
Clicks stream in real time over WebSocket into ownership-checked rooms.
Per-link deep dive
Break down by country, city, region, browser, OS, device, referrer, UTM, and bot-vs-human.
City-level geography
Cities are keyed with their country, so a London in the UK never merges with a London in Canada.
Landing page reporting
Views, button taps, engagement rate, and contact saves for every landing page you publish.
Click heatmap
A 7-day × 24-hour grid showing exactly when your link gets clicked.
Scan analytics
QR scans, direct clicks, and bio taps tracked as distinct sources.
Rich per-click capture
Geo, device, referrer, UTM, bot flag, fraud score, and A/B variant on every event.
Honest data export
CSV or JSON for clicks, conversions, campaigns, and aggregated reports — a truncated export always says so, in the headers and in the file.
Conversion & Revenue Tracking
Track real conversions and revenue — built for affiliate and CPA.
Server-to-server postbacks
Networks report conversions with click id, amount, and status.
Pixel conversions
Fire a conversion straight from your own thank-you page.
Signed & deduplicated
HMAC signature and expiry reject forged conversions; click-id dedup prevents double counting.
Payout clamping
Cap the maximum payout per link or globally.
Revenue dashboard
Confirmed / pending / rejected statuses, surfaced in a dashboard and CSV export.
Conversion webhooks
Pipe every conversion into the rest of your stack automatically.
Optimization
Test, attribute, and organize to get more from every click.
A/B testing
Weighted split tests across named variant destinations, with activate / pause / delete.
Multi-touch attribution
Reconstruct visitor journeys by fingerprint with a touchpoint-count distribution.
Campaigns
Group links into campaigns with aggregate clicks, and filter your list by campaign.
UTM builder & presets
Structured UTMs you can edit after creation, saved as reusable presets so a campaign is never fragmented by three spellings of the same source.
Campaign data export
Per-link summary with UTMs, clicks, scans, conversions and revenue — or the raw click rows for one campaign.
Fraud & Bot Protection
Every click scored and classified to keep your data clean.
Bot detection
User-agent and fingerprint analysis on every click.
Fraud scoring & risk tiers
Classify traffic as normal, log, challenge, or block.
Block tier
High-risk requests get a blocked page, recorded for analytics but excluded from stats.
Challenge tier
A signed, IP- and time-bound JS challenge filters non-JS automated clients.
Velocity checks
Rapid-click and geo-velocity "impossible travel" detection per visitor.
Anomaly alerts
A background job raises traffic-spike and bot-surge alerts every five minutes.
Publishing
Public-facing surfaces you can spin up without a website.
Multiple landing pages
Build up to 25 pages at /@username, each with its own handle, design, and analytics — duplicate one to start the next.
Digital business card
A Save contact button that downloads a proper vCard, importing cleanly into iOS, Android, and Outlook.
YouTube embed
Drop in any YouTube link — watch, share, Shorts, or embed — and it plays inline, cookie-free.
Images & backgrounds
Upload a profile photo and a background image or gradient, with a readability scrim over busy photos.
Social icons & fonts
Eight platforms as real brand icons from a handle or full URL, plus four type treatments.
White-label & previews
Hide the Shortly footer, and get a proper preview card when the page is shared — crawlers get server-rendered meta.
Pre-sell pages
Server-rendered bridge pages at /p/:slug with headline, hero, CTA, and view/CTA tracking.
Publish / unpublish
Draft privately, then flip any surface live with built-in view counters.
Collaboration & Integrations
Work with a team and connect ShortlyLink to your stack.
Teams
Invite members by email with admin / editor / viewer roles and invite tokens.
Webhooks
Subscribe endpoints to click, conversion, bot, expiry, and anomaly events — HMAC-signed and SSRF-guarded.
Public REST API + keys
Generate named sl_ keys and use the /api/v1 API to list, create, stat, and delete links.
Custom domains
Add a branded domain, verify via DNS TXT, and assign it per link.
Slack
Conversion and anomaly alerts, plus a signature-verified /shortly slash command.
In-app alerts
A notification feed for spikes, bot surges, and expirations with unread counts.
