    Linklay vs Lnk.Bio

    The real choice is the billing model. Lnk.Bio sells one-time plans — $9.99 for Mini, $24.99 for Unique — and puts its Facebook pixel behind Mini, while a custom domain is a separate paid subscription. Linklay charges $9.99/month for Pro but gives away analytics and three ad pixels on its free plan. Pay once and add tracking cheaply, or pay nothing and get tracking today.

    Choose Linklay if

    Choose Linklay when you want measurement immediately and at no cost, and when you want the free tier's terms written down: live analytics, Meta, TikTok and Google pixels, email capture, QR codes and scheduled links are all documented at $0.

    Choose Lnk.Bio if

    Choose Lnk.Bio when you refuse another monthly subscription. A one-time $9.99 or $24.99 payment unlocks its paid tier permanently, and it documents UTM parameters and presets, statistics export to a spreadsheet, link scheduling, password-protected links, a newsletter form with Mailchimp, a shop, and iOS, Android, Shopify, Chrome and Firefox apps — a wider integration surface than Linklay publishes.

    Limitations of this comparison

    Lnk.Bio does not publish its free-tier analytics depth, its TikTok pixel tier, its commerce terms, its payment processors or its branding-removal tier, and its custom domain is an extra subscription. Linklay publishes no UTM handling, no export and no Android app.
