Linktree Alternatives: 4 Link-in-Bio Options, Free and Paid
What Linktree's plans include, and four alternatives for your link in bio: Beacons, Carrd, CodeQR pages and a page on your own website, with free limits and first paid plans.


If you are looking for a Linktree alternative, you probably want to drop the Linktree branding without paying, avoid fees on what you sell, or put the page on your own domain. Beacons has a free plan with real-time analytics but takes a 9% seller fee on free accounts. Carrd builds a simple one-page site from $19 a year with your own domain. CodeQR, which we build, includes a link-in-bio page on its Free plan next to short links and QR codes. And a page on your own website costs nothing extra if you already have one.
Plans and prices below come from each company's pricing page, read on October 29, 2026.
What Linktree's plans include
Linktree has four plans: Free, Starter, Pro and Premium. Prices are shown in your local currency, so check the pricing page from your country. Starter adds basic analytics. Pro is the first plan that lists "Remove Linktree branding", along with custom designs, "Sell and earn with 0% fees" and a 7-day free trial. Premium adds link rules and routing, all-time analytics and data export.
So on Free and Starter your page carries Linktree's branding, and all-time analytics comes only with Premium.
Beacons
Beacons' Free plan is listed as "Free forever" and includes a customizable link in bio, real-time analytics and selling of digital products, with "9% seller fees". The Creator plan costs $100 a year ($8.33 a month) or $10 a month and adds a free custom domain. Creator Plus costs $300 a year or $30 a month and brings seller fees to 0%.
It suits creators who sell digital products from their page and want analytics on the free plan. The 9% fee on Free and Creator is the cost to weigh.
Carrd
Carrd is a simple builder for one-page sites, which works well as a link-in-bio page you design yourself. Its pricing page says "Go Pro from just $19 / year". Pro Lite costs $9 a year for 3 sites without Carrd's branding; Pro Standard costs $19 a year for 10 sites and adds custom domains. Without Pro, you can publish up to three sites, and they carry the "Made with Carrd" branding.
At $19 a year, it costs less than Beacons' Creator plan for a page on your own domain, if you are happy to design the page yourself.
CodeQR pages
CodeQR includes a Bio link page type on its Free plan, in the same workspace as your short links and QR codes. You can design the page to match your brand, see its views, and print a QR code that opens it on flyers, packaging or merch. On the Free plan, pages show CodeQR branding; paid plans can remove it.
Businesses and creators who already use short links or QR codes get the bio page in the same place. Plans are on the pricing page.
A page on your own website
If you have a website, a simple links page on your own domain does the same job with no extra subscription and no third-party branding. You keep full control of the design and the address. The trade-off is time: you build and update it yourself, and you need your site's analytics to see clicks.
How to choose
- Free, with analytics and selling: Beacons Free, if the 9% seller fee is acceptable.
- Your own domain for the least money: Carrd Pro Standard at $19 a year.
- Link in bio plus short links and QR codes: CodeQR.
- No new tool at all: a links page on your own website.
- Staying with Linktree but without branding: Linktree Pro.
What to put on a link-in-bio page
- A few links, the most important first. A long list hides the one you want people to click.
- A clear label on each button: "Book a table", "Shop the new collection", "Latest episode".
- Your other profiles, as icons rather than full buttons.
- One contact option, such as email or WhatsApp.
Update the order when your priority changes, for example a launch or an event, and remove links that nobody clicks.
