Clean short URLs Optional analytics EU-hosted No third-party trackers

Benefits

Short links make long destinations easier to share, remember and measure.

Cleaner sharing

Turn bulky URLs into short Lynko links that fit social bios, captions, email signatures and printed material.

Campaign clarity

Use readable slugs for launches, offers and seasonal campaigns so every link has a clear purpose.

Choice over tracking

Create tracked links when you need insight, or keep a simple redirect when measurement is not needed.

How it works

Paste your destination

Add the page, shop, video, form or campaign URL you want visitors to reach.

Choose settings

Pick a readable ending when available, then add expiry, password or analytics settings if your plan supports them.

Share and review

Use the short link in public channels and review clean activity data from your Lynko workspace.

Features

Readable short codes

Premium users can create custom endings for links when a code is available.

Link controls

Use expiry dates, click limits and password protection for short links that need extra control.

Connected toolkit

Combine short links with QR codes, link-in-bio pages, campaigns, polls and Smart Cards.

Use cases

Social and creator links

Share cleaner URLs in profiles, captions, stories, video descriptions and creator updates.

Print and events

Use short links on posters, handouts, slides, product inserts and event signs.

Campaign routing

Send audiences to offers, signup forms, product pages or link-in-bio pages without exposing a long URL.

See what earns the next click

Follow clicks, scans, page views, votes and pixel activity in one workspace. Tracking must be enabled, and each report shows the signals available for that tool.

Understand the trend

Review daily totals, average activity, active days, peak days and top-performing items. Compare with the previous period when the complete comparison is still available.

Find useful audience signals

Explore available referrers, device types, browsers, languages and approximate locations. Missing or hidden signals stay clearly labelled; activity counts do not identify individual people.

Choose your reporting depth

Every plan includes activity trends and preset periods. Paid plans add more history and breakdown rows. Silver and Gold add custom dates and timeline CSV reports in the main analytics views. Older Pixel history can use monthly totals.

Small pixels, useful signals

Choose a small WebP design for lightweight page measurement. Image requests are activity signals; email protection, caching and blocked images can affect counts.

Report dates use UTC. Available history follows your current plan, and an upgrade cannot recover data that has already been deleted.
