What Linktree offers at each price tier

Linktree has four subscription tiers: Free, Starter, Pro, and Advanced. The Free plan lets you create a single landing page with up to three links and basic analytics. Starter costs $5 per month and adds custom branding, up to 50 links, and more detailed click tracking. Pro is $20 per month and includes priority support, advanced analytics, and the ability to sell digital products directly from your page. Advanced costs $50 per month and adds team collaboration features, custom domain options, and API access.

Each tier renews monthly unless you switch plans or cancel. Linktree also offers annual billing at a discount — paying for 12 months upfront typically costs about 20 percent less than paying monthly. The exact discount varies by plan and changes periodically, so check the pricing page when you sign up to see the current annual rate.

The Free plan has no payment method required and no commitment. You can use it indefinitely, though it includes Linktree branding on your page and limits what you can customize. Moving to a paid plan removes that branding and unlocks features based on which tier you choose.

Key Takeaways

  • The Free plan works for people who need a straightforward link page with basic analytics and do not mind Linktree branding.
  • Starter ($5/month) adds custom branding and the ability to add up to 50 links, making it useful for small creators or side projects.
  • Pro ($20/month) includes advanced analytics and the ability to sell digital products, which appeals to people running a business from their link page.
  • Advanced ($50/month) adds team features and API access, designed for agencies or larger operations managing multiple accounts.
  • Annual billing saves roughly 20 percent compared to paying month to month, though the exact savings shifts with Linktree's pricing updates.

How the Free plan compares to paid tiers

The Free plan is genuinely usable — you get a working landing page, clickable links, and basic data on how many people clicked each one. The main trade-offs are the Linktree watermark at the bottom of your page, a limit of three links, and no custom branding or domain. If you have a small number of links to share and do not mind the branding, the Free plan does the job.

Starter removes the watermark and raises the link limit to 50, which covers most individual creators. You also get to customize colors and fonts to match your brand. The analytics stay basic — you see clicks per link and traffic over time, but not detailed breakdowns by device, location, or referrer. Starter is the entry point if you want your page to look like yours rather than like Linktree's.

Pro and Advanced are built for people using Linktree as a business tool. Pro adds the ability to embed a shop, sell digital files, and see which links drive the most revenue. Advanced adds team members who can edit the same page, a custom domain (so your link page lives at yourname.com instead of linktree.com/yourname), and webhooks for integrating Linktree with other tools.

What analytics and tracking look like at each level

Free and Starter both show you total clicks per link and a graph of clicks over time. You cannot see where clicks came from, what device people used, or whether the same person clicked multiple times. This is enough to know which links are popular, but not enough to understand your audience.

Pro adds audience insights: you see clicks broken down by device type (mobile, desktop, tablet), country, and referrer (where the person came from before clicking your link). You also get data on which links drive the most traffic and can see trends over weeks or months. This level of detail helps you understand whether your audience is mostly mobile users, which geographic regions matter most, and which links actually convert.

Advanced includes everything Pro has, plus the ability to set up custom events and track them through Linktree's API. This means you can send data from other tools into Linktree or pull Linktree data into your own systems. It is the option for people building custom workflows or integrating Linktree with a larger business setup.

Customization and branding options by plan

The Free plan shows Linktree branding prominently — your page has the Linktree logo and watermark, and you cannot change the overall look much beyond picking a background color. Starter removes the watermark and lets you upload a custom profile picture, change link colors, and adjust fonts. You still cannot use your own domain name; your page lives at linktree.com/yourname.

Pro adds the ability to use a custom domain, so you can point yourname.com to your Linktree page. This makes your link page feel like part of your own site rather than a Linktree property. You also get more control over the layout and can add a custom favicon (the small icon that appears in the browser tab).

Advanced includes everything Pro has, plus team branding options if you are managing pages for multiple clients or brands. You can set up different color schemes, fonts, and layouts for different pages without switching accounts.

Selling products and monetization features

Free and Starter do not include any selling tools. Your links point outward to other sites — you cannot take payment or sell anything directly from your Linktree page.

Pro adds a shop feature where you can upload digital products (PDFs, videos, templates, courses) and sell them directly. Linktree takes a 5 percent transaction fee on top of payment processing fees (which depend on your payment processor). You set the price, and customers pay through Stripe or PayPal. The shop appears as a link on your page, and customers can browse and purchase without leaving Linktree.

Advanced includes the same shop feature as Pro, plus the ability to set up affiliate links and track commissions. You can also use webhooks to send purchase data to other tools like email platforms or accounting software.

Support and team features

Free and Starter users can access Linktree's help center and community forum, but do not have direct support channels. Response times depend on the community, and there is no may provide of help for urgent issues.

Pro includes email support with a response time target of 24 hours. You can contact Linktree directly if something breaks or you have questions about your account.

Advanced adds priority support (faster response times) and the ability to invite team members to edit your page. Each team member can have different permission levels — some can edit links, others can only view analytics. This is useful if you work with a social media manager or assistant who needs to update your page without having full account access.

When to upgrade and how billing works

Start with the Free plan if you are testing Linktree or have only a few links to share. There is no risk, and you can always upgrade later. Move to Starter if you want to remove the Linktree branding and add more than three links — the $5 monthly cost is low enough that most people find it worth it for a cleaner look.

Upgrade to Pro if you want to sell products, need detailed audience analytics, or plan to use Linktree as a primary business tool. The $20 monthly cost makes sense if you are earning revenue through your link page or need to understand your audience better.

Advanced is for agencies, teams, or people running a complex operation. The $50 monthly cost is justified only if you need team collaboration, custom domains for multiple brands, or API integrations.

You can change your plan at any time. If you upgrade mid-month, Linktree prorates the charge — you pay only for the days remaining in your current billing cycle. If you downgrade, the change takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle, and you keep access to paid features until then.

Annual billing saves money if you know you will use Linktree for a full year. The discount is roughly 20 percent, though Linktree occasionally runs promotions that increase the savings. You can switch from monthly to annual billing (or vice versa) whenever you renew.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Linktree for free forever?

Yes. The Free plan has no expiration and no hidden costs. You can use it indefinitely, though it includes Linktree branding and limits you to three links. You can upgrade to a paid plan whenever you want, and you can downgrade back to Free at any time.

What happens if I cancel my subscription?

Your page stays live until the end of your current billing cycle. After that, your account reverts to the Free plan. All your links and analytics stay in your account, so you can reactivate a paid plan later without losing anything.

Does Linktree charge setup fees or hidden costs?

No setup fees. Paid plans charge only the monthly or annual subscription price. If you use the shop feature on Pro or Advanced, Linktree takes a 5 percent transaction fee on each sale, plus standard payment processing fees from your payment processor (Stripe or PayPal).

Can I switch between monthly and annual billing?

Yes, you can change your billing frequency whenever your subscription renews. If you switch from monthly to annual, you pay the annual rate at your next renewal date. If you switch from annual to monthly, the change takes effect when your annual term ends.

Do I need a custom domain to use Pro or Advanced?

No. Custom domains are a feature available on Pro and Advanced, but you do not have to use one. Your page works fine at linktree.com/yourname even on a paid plan. A custom domain is optional if you want your link page to feel more integrated with your own website.
