We don't value-price. We cost-price. Every link charges infrastructure cost plus a margin under 33%. We publish the costs.
Every link is a combination of redirect infrastructure, analytics processing, domain hosting, and QR generation. Here's exactly what each one costs us — and what we charge you.
* Bitly effective per-link cost: Core $8/mo (100 links) = $0.08/link. Growth $35/mo (3,000 links) = $0.012/link. Premium $199/mo (10,000 links) = $0.02/link. Most small businesses use the Core/Growth plans.
Even heavy users typically pay less. At 10,000+ links/month with high click volume, Bitly's enterprise plan may be cheaper per link. We're honest about that. For most businesses under 1,000 links/month, FairLinks saves 90%+.
You pay $0. Your balance stays. No subscription to cancel.
No. Links are permanent. They keep redirecting and tracking clicks forever. The $0.0001/click charge only applies when someone actually clicks.
No. Never. Your wallet balance has no expiration.
Yes. Set a monthly cap in your wallet settings. When you hit it, we stop tracking clicks (links still redirect).
No free tier. You get 10 free links on signup (no card needed). Then pay per use. Full features from link one.
