Alternatives
Linktree alternatives compared on free plans, branding removal, own domains and seller fees, with every price checked on the vendor's page in October 2026.
We make one of these, and it is first on the list — weigh that. Every entry says what it fixes about Linktree and what it costs you, ours included, and every price links to the page we took it from. Leaving over one specific problem? Start from the reason instead.
The best Linktree alternative depends on why you are leaving. For design control on a free plan, Stick. For a domain of your own at the lowest price, Carrd. For selling, Stan Store if you sell every month and Beacons if you sell occasionally. For a long list of links on a budget, Lnk.Bio. If your posts are already scheduled in Later or Pallyy, their pages live next to them.

Prices in US dollars, checked on each vendor's own pricing or help pages; the date is on every entry below. A dash means the figure does not apply or could not be sourced, and we would rather leave it blank than guess.
Two names older roundups still recommend are not here: Linktree shut Bento down in February 2026, and Tap Bio stops on 31 October 2026.
Design control without paying for it
Instead of Linktree: Design is not the paid part: every block, every theme and the styling of each block are in the free plan, and a digital product sells through your own Stripe account without Stick taking a percentage.
The catch: Custom domains and badge removal are still in development.

An all-in-one creator business
Instead of Linktree: Selling on the free plan costs a 9% fee and no subscription, and the page can sit on a domain you own from the $10 Creator tier, which no Linktree plan offers.
The catch: Heavy if all you want is a page — you are carrying a store, a media kit and an email tool you may never open.

Selling, if you already sell
Instead of Linktree: Built around the checkout — downloads, courses, coaching calls and bookings — and it takes 0% of every sale on both plans, from the first one.
The catch: No free plan at all — a 14-day trial, then $29 a month whether you sell anything or not.

One-page sites at the lowest price
Instead of Linktree: The page can sit on a domain you own, which no Linktree plan allows, from $19 a year — and the branding comes off at $9 a year.
The catch: A general visual one-page builder rather than a bio-specific workflow. A domain of your own is $19/yr, not the $9 headline price; advanced settings require Pro Plus.

Creators already scheduling social posts
Instead of Linktree: Its free page keeps three months of click data, against 28 days of detailed analytics on Linktree Free, and it sits in the same tool as the posts that point to it.
The catch: The page lives inside a wider social scheduling product, and the free page carries Later branding.

Teams already scheduling posts in Pallyy
Instead of Linktree: Scheduling and the bio page come in one subscription, so a team managing several accounts plans the posts and the page they point to in the same place.
The catch: The bio page is a side feature of a scheduler: it is not on the free plan, and Pallyy's custom domains cover its shared calendar rather than the page.

A long list of links, cheaply
Instead of Linktree: Unlimited links on the free plan, and one payment instead of a subscription: $24.99 once takes the logo off for good.
The catch: Plain by design — this is a list, not a page you art-direct.

Pages that open a chat in a messenger
Instead of Linktree: Buttons that open a chat in a messenger app directly, feeds that update themselves on the higher plans, and the page on a domain you own from Pro — which no Linktree plan offers.
The catch: No free plan, the Shor logo stays on the page — its help centre covers putting your referral link in it, not taking it off — and most of its documentation dates from 2021 and 2022.

Stick, Beacons, Carrd, Later, and Lnk.Bio have a free plan rather than a trial; on Stan Store, Pallyy, and Shorby the page starts on a paid plan. Each free plan keeps its own branding on the page, the same trade Linktree makes, so the comparison worth making is what each one holds back and what it costs to take the branding off:
Ours is the whole builder rather than a sample of it: every block, every theme and the styling of each block on its own, with a Stick badge on the page. The line-by-line against Linktree's free plan is on Stick vs Linktree.
The list above is sorted by tool. People rarely leave a tool in general, though — they leave over one specific wall. Six account for most departures, and on two of them the honest answer is a competitor.
Linktree keeps its logo and a "Made with Linktree" footer on every free page, and removing it means paying for Pro — Starter keeps it.
What fixes it: Nobody, on a free plan. Every tool here brands its free tier — what differs is the price to take it off: $9 a year on Carrd, or $24.99 once on Lnk.Bio. We are no better: pages published on Stick carry a Stick badge, and removing it is not available yet. If a clean page is what you are switching for, this is not the reason to switch to us.
The free tier gives you a fixed set of themes, so pages built on it are recognisable as Linktree pages at a glance.
What fixes it: Stick puts every available block type, every theme and full per-block styling in its free plan — a free page should not have to look free. Carrd goes furthest if you are comfortable close to the markup. Bento used to be the fast, visual answer, but Linktree shut it down on 13 February 2026.
Linktree Free and Starter can give digital products, courses and bookings away but cannot charge for them. Selling takes Pro, at $14 a month billed annually or $17 monthly, where Linktree takes 0% and card processing still applies. Until October 2026 its pricing table listed a 12% fee on Free and 9% on Starter and Pro instead.
What fixes it: Beacons lets you sell on its free plan and takes 9% of each sale, which costs nothing in a month you sell nothing. If you sell steadily, a fixed price with no percentage is the better deal — Linktree Pro is one, and Stan Store at $29/mo is another. Stick takes no percentage either: a Digital Product block sells through a checkout on your own Stripe account, and Stripe's processing fees apply.
Linktree has no custom domain on any tier. Your page is linktr.ee/yourname whatever you pay, so paying more does not fix this one.
What fixes it: Carrd, at $19/yr for the tier that carries custom domains — the cheapest way onto a domain of your own. Beacons includes one from its $10 Creator tier. If the domain is the only reason you are looking, that comparison is the whole decision — Stick does not currently support custom domains and pages publish at yourname.stick.site.
Linktree Free keeps lifetime totals but only the last 28 days of detail, and insights for each link start on Starter. Starter extends the history to 90 days, Pro to 365 days and Premium to lifetime.
What fixes it: Check whether 28 days is enough before switching. Later's free page keeps three months of click data. Stick includes per-link analytics in its free plan; other tools set their own history and export limits, and the entries above link to each one's plan page.
Linktree Subscribe can collect email addresses on Free. Longer audience history, CSV export and mailing-list integrations are paid capabilities.
What fixes it: Stick includes form blocks and contact export in the free plan. Beacons is the better answer if you also want a broader email-marketing suite under the same login.
The default, and the reason the category has a name. A broad app marketplace, years of integrations, and a layout audiences already recognise. If none of the six above is actually biting — if the page works, the branding does not bother you and you are not selling — switching costs you an afternoon and buys nothing. The best reason to move is a specific problem, not a general feeling that there must be something better.
It is also the only one your audience recognises on sight, and that is worth something no feature list captures. The line-by-line against ours, including where theirs wins, is on Stick vs Linktree. If you are staying and wondering whether to pay, read what Linktree Free includes and what each plan costs.
Linktree does not provide a one-click export of the page itself or an HTTP redirect from an old Linktree profile URL to a new provider. Premium analytics CSV export and Linktree's Link Redirect feature are different things. Rebuilding the page is usually the easy part; the real work is changing the URL in every social profile, email signature, business card and QR code where you used it.
Building one with us is free, and if you are still deciding what belongs on the page at all, start with what a link in bio is for. The flat comparison of every tool, Linktree included, is the link in bio tools table.
Stick is one of the alternatives on this page, so this comparison is interested rather than neutral.
