Short link generator
Create a short URL from any web address in one click, then customise, share and track it.
A short link generator turns a long address like a product page with tracking parameters into a short, clean link such as go.yourbrand.com/sale. The short link redirects visitors to the original page.
Use the generator above without an account, or sign up free to create up to 1,000 links with your own names and see every click.
Shorten your link
Free, instant, no ads. A QR code comes with it.
Public shortening is paused while the dedicated short-link domain is being connected. Connect a domain you own to make short links.

How to do it in three steps

Any http or https address works: a web page, a form, a video or a file.

Generate the short link
Press Shorten to create it. A QR code is generated at the same time.

Customise it (free account)
Rename the back-half, move it to your own domain and add tags or UTM parameters.
Short link, short URL, shortlink — all the same
Whatever you call it, it is a redirect: a short address that forwards to a longer one. A good generator gives you a permanent, readable link and tells you how many people clicked it.
Generate many short links at once
Create links one by one in the dashboard, in bulk from a CSV file or Google Sheets (Starter plan), or through the API — up to 1,000 per request.
Short codes that make sense
By default you get a random code. You can switch a domain to incremental codes, choose the code length, or type any readable name yourself.
