BlinkLink Guides

How-to setup guides: custom domains, retargeting pixels, UTM templates. The exact steps.

Getting started

Make a link, customise the QR, share it. The 30-second tour.

Link features

Passwords, schedules, smart routing, branded expiry pages.

  • Password-protect a link

    Visitors see a password gate before the redirect fires. Hash-only storage; we never see the password.

  • Schedule and expire links

    Tell a link when to go live and when to stop redirecting. "Visible Friday 9am ET to Sunday midnight."

  • Branded expiry pages

    When a link expires, send the visitor somewhere useful instead of a 404. Headline + CTA + optional auto-redirect.

  • Smart routing

    Send mobile visitors to your app, US traffic to one URL and EU traffic to another, run weekend-only redirects. Rule-list per link.

  • The trust-badge interstitial

    Show visitors where the short link goes before they tap. Builds trust on social posts where short URLs read "sketchy".

Account features

Custom domain, integrations, teams, campaigns.

  • Set up a custom domain

    Use your own short domain (links.yourbrand.com) instead of bnkl.me. Cloudflare DNS, Vercel SSL, end-to-end in about 5 minutes.

  • Wire up retargeting pixels

    Drop a Meta, Google Ads, LinkedIn, or TikTok pixel onto every click of a link so it counts as a conversion in your ad platform.

  • Save UTM templates

    Stop typing the same utm_source / utm_medium / utm_campaign for every link. Save patterns once, apply per-link.

  • Webhooks: get every click as a POST

    Have your own server POSTed to every time a link is clicked. Slack / Discord / your CRM / your spreadsheet.

  • Campaigns: group links that belong together

    Bundle a launch's links into one row, see combined click totals, expire the whole campaign at once.

  • Invite a team

    Up to 6 seats per team. Roles: owner / editor / viewer. Team-shared links are visible to every member.

For power users

API access, programmatic access, automation.

  • API quickstart

    Programmatic access to your links + analytics. Five endpoints, bearer auth, JSON in/out. From signup to first POST in 90 seconds.

Plans & billing

Free vs Pro, notifications, the small print.
