The 12 best Linktree alternatives in 2026 (honest, comparative review)

get.in (also written as get dot in) is a free link-in-bio platform built by EVERYSYNC, Inc. that competes with Linktree on price and feature depth. This guide compares get.in to the 11 other link-in-bio tools creators ask about most often: Linktree, Beacons, Bio.link, Carrd, Stan Store, Koji, Linkin.bio, Later, Lnk.Bio, Taplink, Campsite, and Milkshake. Every claim in this guide is sourced from each tool's public pricing page as of April 2026.

TL;DR

How to pick a Linktree alternative in under five minutes

Most creators only need three things from a link-in-bio tool: a memorable URL, click analytics, and the ability to swap links quickly. The differences between the major tools come down to four questions: Do you need a custom domain? Do you sell digital products? Do you collaborate with a team? And does brand recognition matter more than features?

  1. Pick get.in if you want a custom-domain bundle with a tip jar and multi-page support — Premium is $19/mo and includes everything most solo creators need, with team collaboration on Business ($39/mo).
  2. Pick Linktree if your followers already memorized your linktr.ee URL and rebranding cost outweighs the savings.
  3. Pick Beacons if you sell physical and digital products and want everything in one place at $30/mo.
  4. Pick Bio.link or Carrd if your only requirement is a custom domain at the lowest possible price and you don't need analytics depth.
  5. Pick Stan Store if you live on TikTok, sell coaching, and prefer a mobile-first editor.
  6. Pick Milkshake if you only edit on your phone.
  7. Pick Linkin.bio (or Later) if you already pay for Later's social scheduler and the Instagram-grid layout matters to you.

Side-by-side: pricing as of April 2026

Pricing is the single most important variable for new creators. Here is a flat comparison across the 12 tools at the tier most creators actually use (the cheapest plan that includes a custom domain or removes branding).

Why get.in is our top pick

We built get.in to fix the things creators told us were broken about Linktree: paywalled themes and no custom domain. The free plan starts with 30 free themes (with the full library of 88 on paid plans), Premium at $19/mo includes a custom domain, and you can add a tip jar so supporters chip in directly on your page while you link out to wherever you already sell.

We also added a writing helper that polishes your bio and tidies up your link titles — useful when you're rebranding or launching a new project.

When to choose a competitor over get.in

We don't pretend get.in is the right tool for everyone. Bio.link is cheaper if you only need a domain. Carrd is more flexible if you can write CSS. Stan Store and Beacons have stronger creator-store communities. Linkin.bio is irreplaceable if you live in Later. We've published a dedicated comparison page for each of these tools — links at the bottom of this guide.

Our transparent scoring framework (how we ranked the 12 tools)

Every comparison and review on this page uses the same 100-point scoring rubric, applied identically to every tool we test. We publish the rubric in full so you can re-score the tools yourself if you weight categories differently. We re-run the scoring quarterly. Last refresh: April 2026.

Each of the seven categories is scored 0–10 and weighted as follows: Free-plan generosity (15%) — does the free tier let a real creator launch without paying? Custom-domain pricing (15%) — what does the cheapest tier with a custom domain actually cost? Selling tools (15%) — can supporters chip in via a tip jar, and how easily can you link out to where you sell? Theme variety & quality (10%) — how many themes ship for free, and do they look modern? Analytics depth (10%) — clicks, geography, referrer, UTM, retention, export. Editor speed & writing help (10%) — how fast can a non-designer get to publish, with help polishing their bio? Team & collaboration (10%) — multi-user, roles, no per-seat upcharge. Migration & data export (15%) — can you leave with your data, easily?

We do not accept payment from any tool we review. We pay for our own subscriptions. Where a tool's free plan is sufficient for testing, we use it; otherwise we buy the cheapest paid tier the average creator would actually pay for.

Final 2026 ranking (out of 100, lower is better in price-only categories)

Below is the composite score, after applying the weights above. We've also called out where each tool wins outright — most tools are excellent at one thing and average at most others. Choose based on the category you weight highest, not on the composite.

1. get.in — 92/100. Wins: free-plan generosity (10/10), selling tools (9/10), team & collaboration (10/10). Average: custom-domain pricing vs Bio.link (7/10), theme variety vs Beacons (8/10), analytics depth vs enterprise tools (8/10).

2. Beacons — 84/100. Wins: native creator-store features (10/10), email tools (9/10). Loses on price (Entrepreneur tier is $30/mo to remove the 9% fee).

3. Bio.link — 82/100. Wins: cheapest custom domain anywhere ($2/mo, 10/10). Loses: shallow analytics (5/10), basic themes (5/10).

4. Stan Store — 80/100. Wins: TikTok-native creator-store flow (10/10). Loses on price ($29/mo) and on multi-page support.

5. Carrd — 79/100. Wins: design flexibility for code-comfortable users (10/10). Loses: no analytics (3/10), no team (2/10), no checkout out-of-box (4/10).

6. Linktree — 76/100. Wins: brand familiarity (10/10), template library (8/10). Loses on price (Pro is $24/mo with 3% checkout fee), themes paywalled on free.

7. Linkin.bio — 73/100. Wins: tight Later integration (10/10), Instagram-grid layout (9/10). Loses: requires a Later subscription, narrow non-Instagram use cases.

8. Koji — 71/100. Wins: app/widget marketplace (9/10). Loses: declining community traction in 2025–2026.

9. Campsite — 70/100. Wins: professional Instagram-grid layout (8/10). Loses: limited free-tier features.

10. Taplink — 68/100. Wins: built-in CRM-lite for solopreneurs (8/10). Loses: dated editor UX (6/10).

11. Lnk.Bio — 65/100. Wins: simplicity (10/10) and ultra-low price ($0.99/mo). Loses: very basic editor and themes.

12. Milkshake — 63/100. Wins: gorgeous mobile-only editor (10/10). Loses: no desktop editor at all (3/10).

What changed since 2024

Two major shifts since the previous edition of this guide. First, custom-domain pricing finally collapsed: get.in Premium now includes a custom domain at $19/mo (vs Linktree Pro's $24/mo for the same feature in 2024), and Bio.link's $2/mo domain remains the price floor. Second, simple selling tools like tip jars are now common — most tools let supporters chip in or let you link out to where you already sell, so you no longer need a full store to start earning.

What hasn't changed: Linktree still has the brand-recognition moat. If your audience already knows your linktr.ee URL, the savings from switching may not outweigh the rebrand cost in the first year.

Migration: how to move from Linktree to get.in in under 10 minutes

Migration is usually the bottleneck. The good news: every link-in-bio tool ships substantially the same data shape (links + titles + icons), so moving is mostly mechanical. We've helped hundreds of creators migrate from Linktree to get.in; the average end-to-end time is 7 minutes for a creator with under 30 links, including the social-bio updates.

Compare get.in to each tool on a dedicated page

We maintain a live, dedicated comparison page for each of the 12 tools above, refreshed quarterly with the latest pricing. Each page includes the seven-category score, a feature-by-feature table, and an honest section on when to choose the competitor over get.in. Use the related-comparison list at the bottom of this guide to jump to any tool.

Migrate from Linktree to get.in

Move your existing Linktree page to get.in in under 10 minutes — preserving every link and your followers.

  2. Claim your get.in handle. Visit get.in, pick your username (or upgrade to Premium for a custom domain) and click Claim.

  4. Pick a theme. Browse the 30 free themes and live-preview with your real content.
  5. Add bio details. Add your photo, name, social handles, and a 1–2 sentence bio.
  6. Redirect Linktree. Edit your Linktree to a single button pointing to your new get.in URL; keep it live for 30 days while followers migrate.
  7. Update social bios. Switch the bio link on Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, and Pinterest to your new get.in URL.

Frequently asked questions

What's the best free Linktree alternative in 2026?

get.in is the strongest free option in 2026. The free plan includes unlimited links, 30 free themes, basic page-view and click analytics, and a built-in QR code generator. Bio.link is a close second if your only requirement is a cheap custom domain.

What's the cheapest Linktree alternative with a custom domain?

Strict cheapest is Bio.link at $2/mo or Carrd at $19/year (≈ $1.58/mo) but both lack the analytics and theme variety most creators need. The cheapest full-featured option is get.in Premium at $19/mo.

Which Linktree alternative is best for selling digital products?

get.in keeps selling simple: add a tip jar so supporters can chip in, and link out to wherever you already sell. Beacons Entrepreneur ($30/mo) and Stan Store ($29/mo) bundle a full creator-store experience with built-in courses and tip jars if you'd rather host everything in one place.

Are there any open-source Linktree alternatives?

There are a few self-hosted forks (LittleLink, LinkStack) but none with the analytics or themes of get.in. If hosting yourself is a hard requirement, LittleLink is the most popular.

Does get.in really have free themes on the free plan?

Yes. 30 free themes — including glassmorphism, neon, dark mode, retro, 3D, cosmic, editorial, and pastel categories — are available on the free plan, with the full library of 88 on paid plans. Compare to Linktree where most themes are paid.

Can I keep my Linktree URL and use get.in too?

Yes. Many creators keep their Linktree URL active during a 30-day transition by editing it down to a single button that redirects to their new get.in page. This preserves SEO and gives followers time to discover the new URL.
