How It Works

How It Works

Three steps from a raw URL to a branded, trackable short link.

1. Paste your URL

Drop any destination URL into the shortener. The system validates, shortens, and returns a clean link in under a second.

  • Works with any valid URL
  • Safety and abuse checks run automatically
  • Optional custom link ending for descriptive, readable words

2. Brand and customize

Connect your own domain, set scheduling rules, and choose how the link behaves — scheduling windows, expiry dates, and backup destinations.

  • Use your custom domain or ours
  • Set start and expiry dates
  • Add backup URLs for expired links
