Best for a link-in-bio page with a small store
Linktree makes a link-in-bio page with sign-ups, a store and scheduling, from a free plan up to $30 a month. Linktree branding stays on until the $14 Pro plan, and the free plan's restrictions are why most people end up paying.
Who Linktree is for
- Fits if you need one link in your social profiles that points to a few places
- Works for creators who sell a few downloads and want it on the same page
Who Linktree is not for
- Tight if you stay free, as Linktree branding stays on and sales fees only fall to 0% on Pro
- Pricey if you want the extras, since link rules, export and unlimited Instagram auto-replies are $30 a month on Premium
- Watch out: each payout is charged $0.25, and other transaction and processing fees may apply
- Watch out: the prices were read in US dollars from India, so a US visitor's view may differ
Why Linktree gets a 2.4
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- BValue for moneyStarter is $7 a month billed annually ($9 monthly), inside the category's cheapest quarter that starts at $10. Pro, where branding goes, is $14, and Premium is $30.
- CFree plan and trialUnlimited basic links and email and phone sign-ups on the free plan, with restrictions. Branding stays and sales fees only reach 0% on Pro, so you will meet the caps. Paid plans have a 7-day trial.
- CFeaturesA link page, selling, sign-ups, scheduling, Instagram auto-replies and team spaces. Gaps are on the plan ladder: link rules, data export and unlimited auto-replies need Premium.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. The page is quick to start, but a store, sign-ups and scheduling each need setting up.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb, iOS and Android, with Shopify, Spotify and Instagram connections. There is no desktop program.

Keep Linktree, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Linktree you would be making checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 11 of the 28 other tools for selling digital products grade higher. It costs $84 a year.
What you could make
- Digital downloads and online courses: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Linktree’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
