The record

Product: TheShortener combines URL shortening, QR codes, analytics, an API, browser extension, and related services.
Link analytics: The dashboard can report link activity such as clicks, countries, devices, and campaign performance.
Branded links: Users can create aliases on platform domains or connect a verified custom domain, with eligibility depending on plan.
Targeting and teams: Geographic and device targeting, tracking pixels, campaigns, and team collaboration are available on eligible paid plans.
QR codes: The QR generator supports static and dynamic codes and lists text, URL, email, SMS, call, WiFi, vCard, and event formats.
Bio pages: Bio Pages group links on one profile page and offer dynamic widgets, customizable design, and profile and link tracking.
File links: File hosting supports files up to 60 MB each; guest uploads allow up to three files and 180 MiB total per rolling 24 hours.
File controls: Account file links can show downloads and pageviews and support passwords, expiry dates, and maximum download counts.
Integrations: The Bio Pages page lists widgets including PayPal, WhatsApp, YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, Typeform, Calendly, Google Maps, and LinkedIn.
Developer API: The API uses an account API key sent as a bearer authorization token and documents a rate limit of 1,000 requests per minute that may vary by plan.
Chrome extension: The Chrome extension requires an account and API key, and reads the current page URL only when the user clicks to shorten it.
Security and privacy: The privacy policy lists HTTPS for supported endpoints, server-side credential handling, access controls, API-key generation and revocation, monitoring, backups, and recovery procedures as safeguards.
Shopify integration: TheShortener Links Shopify app requests read-only product access and says it does not access customer records, orders, checkout, payment, billing, or POS information.
Free use: Visitors can create a basic short link without signing up, while a free account saves links and provides dashboard analytics.
Price from: $8.99/mo
