Freeshortlink
A Linkly alternative for editable short links and QR codes
Edit where your links point after they are printed, see who clicks, and download QR codes with your logo.
Your short link is ready. Want full click stats and an ad-free page?
No signup needed for 3 links a day. Create a free account for 10 links a month.
Editable destinations first
If you print a QR code on a menu, a flyer or a box, the most important feature is being able to change where it points later. On Freeshortlink Premium you can edit the destination and the alias of any link at any time, and the printed code keeps working.
Per-link click statistics
Premium shows clicks over time, countries, referrers, devices and browsers, plus a live list of recent clicks, on one page per link. Free accounts see the total click count per link.
