Linktree alternatives that let you sell, compared

A Linktree alternative is any link in bio page that does what Linktree's free plan does, and four of the five here do one thing more: they take the payment. This guide compares five Linktree alternatives, four of which sell, each read from its own pricing page on 4 September 2026: Onlink, Beacons, Stan Store, Lnk.Bio and Bio Link, with Linktree's own page, read in dollars on 6 September 2026, as the baseline.

The short version: three of the five print a free plan with no end date, and among the five, Onlink is the only one whose free plan prints digital products, courses, bookings and donations, at 10% a sale. Beacons sells digital products and affiliate links on its free plan at 9%; Stan Store has no free plan; Lnk.Bio opens its shop on a one-time plan and takes 5% of a sale; Bio Link lists nothing to sell. The tables below hold every number.

How did we compare these alternatives?

By reading each tool's own pricing and help pages on 4 September 2026, then Linktree's pricing page through a crawler in the United States on 6 September 2026 so that it printed dollars, and Linktree's help articles and Lnk.Bio's shop and comparison pages in a browser the same day, and putting the five questions below to each. Every competitor line is that page's own words or numbers, and every Onlink number comes from the constants the product charges on, which the Onlink pricing page prints.

  • Free plan: the tool's own list, and whether it ends.
  • Selling: whether the page takes a payment, the fee by plan, and where the money lands.
  • Linktree's three paid lines: selling, the badge removed with your own look, and 0%, and the price of each elsewhere.
  • Design: what the page is, and what you can change on it.
  • The first sale: what it costs up front on each tool, which decides the conclusion.

Why look for a Linktree alternative?

Three reasons, and all three are printed on Linktree's own pricing page: a page without the Linktree badge, a page that looks like your work, and a sale at 0%. On Linktree the first two sit on Pro and the third on Premium, so the search for an alternative usually starts the day one of them starts to matter.

Here is what Linktree's pricing page printed to a reader in the United States on 6 September 2026. The free plan, "Free with restrictions", lists "Unlimited basic links" and "Sell products, courses, and make money on brand offers", and its fees article puts a free-plan sale at 12%. Starter ($6 a month billed annually, $8 monthly) adds "Sell digital products (9% fees)". Pro ($12 billed annually, $15 monthly) adds "Remove Linktree branding" and "Custom themes, fonts, & layouts". Premium ($30 billed annually, $35 monthly) adds "Sell digital products (0% fees)". In a pilot described in its ads article, "Some Free Linktrees may show a short ad to visitors after they click an external link", and "Ads never appear on paid Linktree plans". The page shows the visitor's local currency, so a reader elsewhere sees other figures.

The free plan is the line that decides this comparison, and it is the line we built Onlink around. The part of the product a creator needs to get paid should not sit behind a subscription, so on Onlink the free plan holds the page, every card type and every kind of selling, and the fee is charged only when a sale happens. The other decision was where the money goes: a sale is paid into the creator's own Stripe account through Stripe Connect, and never passes through us.

Which Linktree alternatives are free?

Onlink, Beacons and Lnk.Bio print a free plan, and none of the three prints an end date for it. Stan Store has no free plan and offers a 14-day trial, and Bio Link's page leads with a 7-day trial of its one paid plan and does not itemise a free tier.

What each free plan holds is the real difference, and the table below is each tool's own list; what the free plans of Canva and Bio Sites hold as well is in our free link in bio comparison.

What each free plan includes, per its own pages, read on 4 September 2026 and, for Linktree's fees and Lnk.Bio's shop, 6 September 2026
ToolWhat the free plan includesWhat selling costs on it
OnlinkUnlimited links, photos and videos, Spotify and YouTube cards, an Instagram card that shows your posts or reels, notes and a map; selling digital products, courses, paid calls (bookings), donations and tips; a lead magnet; the affiliate programme; analytics with revenue; 10 GB of media; the auto-updating YouTube channel card is on Pro and Premium10% of each sale, plus Stripe's processing fee

Sources, each read on 4 September 2026 unless stated: Onlink pricing, Linktree pricing (read from the United States on 6 September 2026, in dollars), Linktree's fees article, selling guide and ads on Free article (each 6 September 2026), Beacons pricing, Stan Store home, Stan Store plans, Stan Store pricing, Stan's help centre on Stripe accounts and cash-outs, Lnk.Bio pricing, Lnk.Bio's shop page and comparison page (both 6 September 2026), Bio Link pricing. Are you forced to pay at some point? On Onlink, no: the free plan has no card and no time limit, you pay 10% when a sale happens, and a subscription only if you want a lower fee or more tools, as the Onlink pricing page lays out. The affiliate programme also runs on the free plan: anyone who signs up through your page becomes your referral, and it pays a one-time reward of $5 to $60 when that referral subscribes to a paid plan, confirmed 30 days after the sale and paid to your Stripe account.

Which Linktree alternatives let you sell, and what does a sale cost?

Four of the five sell something, and the fee on a sale decides what you keep: Onlink takes 10% on Free, 7% on Pro and 0% on Premium; Beacons takes 9% on Free and Creator and 0% from Creator Plus ($25 a month billed annually); Stan Store takes 0% on both its plans, from $29 a month. Lnk.Bio opens a shop on its Unique plan at 5% a sale, and Bio Link lists nothing to sell; Beacons alone against Onlink, plan by plan, is in Onlink vs Beacons.

Onlink is a link in bio page that sells on every plan, the free one included, with the money paid into your own Stripe account. On Free you get unlimited links, photos, videos, Spotify and YouTube cards, notes and a map, plus digital products, courses, paid calls, donations and tips, and 10 GB of media, for $0 and a 10% fee on each sale.

The page is a bento grid rather than a column: cards of different sizes, placed where you drag them, laid out once for desktop and again for the phone. Pro ($12.50 a month, or $10 a month billed annually) lowers the fee to 7% and raises storage to 20 GB, with the analytics breakdown, audience CRM and export; Premium ($37.50 a month, or $30 a month billed annually) takes the fee to 0% with 50 GB and a verified badge. There is no Onlink branding badge on the page on any plan, and no custom domain on any plan: the page lives at on.link/yourname. Every number is on the Onlink pricing page.

Beacons

Beacons sells on its free plan: "Sell unlimited digital products" and "Create affiliate links" are listed under Free, with "9% seller fees". Creator ($10 a month, or $8.33 billed annually) keeps the 9%; Creator Plus ($30 a month, or $25 billed annually) prints "0% seller fees", the plan table shows 0% for Creator Max ($90 a month, or $75 billed annually) as well, and Plus is where "Sell unlimited courses with video hosting" and memberships begin.

Where the money goes is on the page too: you "cash out right away directly to your Stripe or PayPal accounts", per Beacons' pricing page read on 4 September 2026. The free plan also lists 50 email sends a month, "Real-time analytics" and 30 daily AI credits; "Remove Beacons branding" is a row in its plan grid whose tier marks did not survive our text capture, so we do not name the plan, and "Free custom domain" is printed on the Creator card.

Stan Store

Stan Store is a storefront in your link in bio with no free plan: Creator is $29 a month ($300 a year) and Creator Pro is $99 a month ($948 a year), and its home page prints "Transaction Fees, Always." under a 0%. The trial is 14 days, and there is no plan below $29.

Creator includes a "Mobile- and desktop-friendly storefront", "Calendar and booking tools", an "Unlimited online course builder", lead magnets and recurring subscriptions, per Stan's help centre read on 4 September 2026; Creator Pro adds discount codes, upsells, funnels, email flows and pixel tracking. The address stan.store/pricing answers as an unclaimed store rather than a pricing page, so Stan's numbers come from the help centre, from Stan's home page and from Stan's own pricing article. A sale settles in a Stripe account "managed by Stan", and you cash the balance out yourself, per its help centre on Stripe accounts and cash-outs; the steps are in our Onlink vs Stan Store comparison.

Lnk.Bio

Lnk.Bio is a links page with a free plan that prints "Unlimited Lnks", embeds, a map, basic statistics, 577 templates and 3 pages, and it sells on the Unique plan, a $24.99 one-time payment that lists "Open your Shop". Mini is printed as $0.99 a month in the plan table and as a $9.99 one-time payment in the about section, and its comparison page reconciles the two as "Mini Monthly $0.99/mo" and "Mini One-time $9.99 lifetime".

Ultra is $89.99 a year and adds "Connect existing domain", a booking calendar and verification; a custom domain is also sold as an add-on at $39.99 a year on any plan, per Lnk.Bio's pricing read on 4 September 2026, and at $29.99 on its comparison page. Its shop page, read on 6 September 2026, prints a "Fixed percentage fee per sale" of 5%, "Excludes Stripe/PayPal fees", with "Collect payments via PayPal or Stripe" and "Lnk.Bio doesn't hold your funds".

Bio Link is a links-and-posts page with one paid plan, Pro, at $14.99 a month or $7.49 a month billed yearly, and a 7-day trial; the page does not itemise a free tier and lists nothing you can sell. What Pro lists is "Unlimited sites", an AI chat for visitors, "Use your own custom domain", "No branding, fully white-label", posts and an email list, per Bio Link's pricing read on 4 September 2026.

If selling is the reason you are leaving Linktree, Bio Link is not the alternative; if a white-label page with your own domain is the reason, Bio Link Pro lists both, Beacons Creator prints "Free custom domain", and Lnk.Bio sells one as a $39.99 a year add-on on any plan.

A 0% tier is worth its subscription only past a certain volume of sales. On Onlink the arithmetic is simple: Premium at $30 a month billed annually costs the same as the 10% fee on $300 of sales ($375 on monthly billing), so below that the free plan costs less, and above it Premium does. Nothing on Onlink is charged until a sale happens, so you can start on Free and move to Premium once you pass it.

What does each Linktree tier buy, and where is the same thing free?

Linktree sells three things by tier: selling at 9% instead of 12% on Starter, the badge removed and your own themes on Pro, and selling at 0% on Premium. On Onlink the first two are on the free plan, and on the other alternatives each one sits at a different price, as the table shows.

Per the pages linked under the first table. Monthly prices without an annual commitment, and the design and analytics tables for all six tools, are in our guide to the best link in bio tools.

Onlink: its page is a bento grid of cards in different sizes, with photo cards (an image or a video each), note, Spotify, Instagram and paid cards placed where you drag them, so the page reads as a site rather than a column. Of the others, Linktree and Lnk.Bio describe links with themes on top, Beacons and Bio Link add a site builder, and Stan Store a storefront.

What you can change about the page, per each site's own pages, read on 4 September 2026 and 6 September 2026
What you can changeOnlinkThe alternatives, per their own pages
LayoutA bento grid: cards of different sizes, each placed where you drag it; the other cards settle around itLinktree and Lnk.Bio: a list of links on a theme; Beacons and Bio Link: a site builder; Stan Store: a storefront with "11 ready-to-use link in bio templates"
Desktop and phoneTwo layouts, arranged separately: the desktop grid and the phone grid are each yours to setStan Store prints a "Mobile- and desktop-friendly storefront"; Lnk.Bio's features page lists "Mobile layout" and "Desktop layout"; the others do not print a separate desktop layout
BackgroundA colour, a gradient or a pattern on every plan; a photo or a video on paid plansLinktree: "Custom themes, fonts, & layouts" on Pro and "video backgrounds" on paid plans; Lnk.Bio: "Custom mobile wallpaper", "Custom desktop wallpaper" and "Custom video wallpaper" on its features page; Bio Link: "15+ trending themes"; Beacons: "Unlimited Link in Bio Customization"; Stan Store: not printed
Avatar and cardsAvatar placement, card sizes and card positions are yours on every planLinktree: a "Hero profile image" on Pro and Premium; the others print themes and colours, not the placement of the page's parts

Getting startedPick a handle and the page exists; add cards; nothing to install, no codeLinktree: "Create and customize your Linktree in minutes"; Lnk.Bio: "Log in via Instagram, add your links and retrieve your unique URL"; Stan Store: a help guide titled "How to Build & Launch Your Stan Store in 30 Minutes"

Per the pages linked under the first table, plus Linktree's paid features overview, Lnk.Bio's features page and Stan's launch guide, read on 6 September 2026, 6 September 2026 and 4 September 2026. The difference a creator feels is in the editing: on the others the choices are the theme, the colours and the fonts around a list; on Onlink there is no theme layer, because the page is the grid itself, and the phone layout is a second grid you arrange the same way.

How do you switch from Linktree without losing anything?

Your followers are on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, not on Linktree, so switching is building the new page first and then changing one address in each profile. Nothing you have posted moves or breaks; only the link behind "link in bio" changes.

  1. Build the new page before you touch anything. On Onlink, pick a handle and the page exists; add the links from your Linktree page as cards, then the photos, video and paid cards you want on the page.
  2. Put the new address in the website field of each profile: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn and X.
  3. Keep the old Linktree page live for a few weeks, with one link on it pointing to the new page, so anyone who saved the old address still lands somewhere.
  4. If you sold on Linktree, connect your Stripe account on the new page before you announce it, so the first visitor who wants to buy can.

Nothing to install and no code on any step; where each profile's website field is, and what it accepts, is in our guide to what a link in bio can do. The one thing you cannot carry over is a custom domain, because Onlink does not offer one: the page lives at on.link/yourname.

What matters more than price?

For a creator leaving Linktree, what matters more than the price is whether the new page lets you sell before you pay anything. Of the five alternatives, the lowest risk is the plan that charges only when a sale happens, and the lowest price only matters once you know what you will sell, and how much.

Four of the five sell something, and on two of them the first sale costs nothing up front: Onlink Free at 10% and Beacons Free at 9%, against 12% on Linktree's own free plan. Stan Store's first sale needs the $29 Creator plan, Lnk.Bio's the $24.99 Unique plan and then 5% of each sale, and Bio Link lists nothing to sell.

  • What the first sale costs you up front, per each site's own page: Onlink $0, then 10% of the sale; Beacons $0, then 9%; Linktree $0, then 12%; Stan Store $29 a month first, then 0%; Lnk.Bio $24.99 once, then 5%.
  • What a subscription buys you, once you sell: on Onlink a lower fee (7% on Pro at $10 a month billed annually, 0% on Premium at $30); on Linktree 9% on Starter ($6 billed annually) and 0% on Premium ($30 billed annually); on Beacons 0% from Creator Plus ($25 billed annually); on Stan Store 0% from the first month ($29 a month, or $300 a year).
  • Where a 0% subscription meets Onlink Free's 10%: Beacons Creator Plus's $25 a month billed annually at $250 of sales a month, Stan Store's $29 at $290, and Onlink Premium's $30 billed annually at $300; below those totals Onlink Free costs less, above them the 0% plan does.

Which Linktree alternative should you pick?

It depends on which of the three reasons sent you looking, and the table takes them one at a time. For the badge, the look and selling, the answer is Onlink's free plan, where all three are on at $0; for a custom domain it is not Onlink, on any plan.

Which alternative for which reason, per each site's own pages
If you…Pick
Want the badge off the pageOnlink, on every plan; Linktree removes it on Pro, Lnk.Bio on Unique, Bio Link on Pro, Beacons in its plan grid; Stan Store's pages we read do not say
Want the page to look like your workOnlink Free, a grid of photo cards, image or video, that you place yourself
Want to sell a file, a course or a paid call before you pay anythingOnlink Free, 10% a sale
Want a course with hosted video on a free planOnlink Free, with 10 GB of media
Sell at 0% from day one, with a subscriptionOnlink Premium, $30 a month billed annually ($360 a year); Stan Store Creator ($29 a month, or $300 a year), Beacons Creator Plus ($25 a month billed annually, $300 a year) and Linktree Premium ($30 a month billed annually, $360 a year) print 0% too
Need your own domain nameBeacons Creator, Bio Link Pro, or Lnk.Bio as a $39.99-a-year add-on or on Ultra; Onlink has no custom domain on any plan

Per the pages linked under the first table. The same reasons, with the price of each answer:

  • You want the badge off the page: Onlink has none on any plan, Free included. Elsewhere it is a paid line: Lnk.Bio Unique ($24.99 one-time), Bio Link Pro ($7.49 a month billed yearly), and Linktree itself on Pro; Beacons lists it in its plan grid, and our capture kept no tier marks, so we do not name the plan.
  • You want the page to look like your work: Onlink's bento grid, with photo cards, image or video, that you place yourself, is on the free plan. Linktree's own themes and fonts are on Pro; Lnk.Bio's custom colours and fonts are on Unique.
  • You want to sell before you pay anything: Onlink's free plan sells digital products, courses, paid calls, donations and tips at 10%; Beacons' free plan sells digital products and affiliate links at 9%; Linktree's free plan lists selling at 12%, per its fees article.
  • You sell courses with the lessons hosted: Onlink on any plan, Free included, keeps them inside the 10 GB, 20 GB or 50 GB the plan includes; Beacons hosts course video from Creator Plus ($30 a month), Stan Store from Creator ($29 a month).
  • You already sell more than $300 a month and want 0%: Onlink Premium at $30 a month billed annually; Beacons Creator Plus ($25 a month billed annually, $300 a year), Stan Store Creator ($300 a year) and Linktree Premium ($30 a month billed annually, $360 a year) print 0% too.
  • You need your own domain name: not Onlink, which has none on any plan. Beacons Creator prints "Free custom domain", Bio Link Pro lists one, and Lnk.Bio lists a .bio domain on Unique, connecting your own on Ultra, and a $39.99 a year add-on on any plan.

Every competitor price in this list comes from the pages linked under the tables above, read on 4 September 2026, and on 6 September 2026 for Linktree and for Lnk.Bio's shop.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a completely free Linktree alternative?

Yes: Onlink, Beacons and Lnk.Bio each print a free plan with no end date, per their own pages read on 4 September 2026. Onlink's is the one of the three with unlimited links, photos, videos, Spotify and YouTube cards, notes, a map and selling digital products, courses, paid calls, donations and tips, and the only charge is 10% when a sale happens, plus Stripe's processing fee.

What can you use instead of Linktree?

Any link in bio page that takes one address and holds everything you share: on this list, Onlink, Beacons, Stan Store, Lnk.Bio and Bio Link. If you want the page to sell, Onlink, Beacons and Stan Store take payments; Lnk.Bio opens a shop on its Unique plan; Bio Link does not list selling.

Is Linktree outdated?

Linktree's pricing page, read on 6 September 2026, still prints a free plan with "Unlimited basic links" and a line about selling, so the product is current; what changed around it is that two of the five alternatives here sell on a free plan, and one puts photos and video on the page itself. Whether that makes Linktree outdated depends on whether your page needs to sell or to look like your work; the plan-by-plan comparison, in dollars, is in Onlink vs Linktree.

Can I use a Linktree alternative for Instagram?

Yes. Instagram gives a profile up to five website fields, per its help page read on 4 September 2026, and any page on this list goes in one; the same address works in the website fields of TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn and X, per their help pages read on 6 September 2026 in our guide to what a link in bio can do. On Onlink the page adapts to the phone on its own, so it reads the same from an Instagram profile as from a desktop.

No. The free plan has no card, no time limit and no setup fee; you pay 10% of a sale when one happens and nothing before. Nothing on Onlink asks you to close your Linktree page first, so there is no gap.
