Short links, on a domain you can trust.

URLBase turns long, messy URLs into short branded links — with click tracking, QR codes, and smart options like password protection and expiry dates. Free to use.

You'll be asked to create a free account so your links and stats stay yours.

Everything a working link needs

Custom short links

Pick a memorable ending — your campaign name, your product, your event — instead of random characters nobody trusts.

Click analytics

See total clicks, clicks by day, and clicks by country for every link, so you know which channel actually performed.

QR codes built in

Every link gets a ready-to-print QR code. Put it on packaging, flyers, menus, and business cards — and still count the scans.

Password protection

Gate a link with a password when the destination is meant for a specific group: clients, students, members, family.

Expiring links

Set a date and time when a link stops working — right for limited offers, event pages, and time-sensitive documents.

Device routing

Send phone visitors somewhere different from desktop visitors when you have separate iOS, Android, and web destinations.

Retargeting pixels

Optionally attach your own Meta or Google pixel to a link, so people who clicked can find your ads again later.

Instant redirects

Links redirect immediately — no waiting pages and no ads standing between your visitor and the destination. Ever.

Yours, not rented

Manage every link from one dashboard: edit the destination, pause a link, or delete it. Your history stays exportable to you.

How it works

1. Paste the long URL

Any web address: a product page, a registration form, a document, a video.

2. Choose your ending

Take the automatic short code, or name it yourself — and add options like a QR code, expiry, or password.

3. Share and watch

Post it anywhere. Every click is counted in your dashboard in near real time.

Questions, answered

Is URLBase really free?
Yes. Creating an account and shortening links is free. If we add paid extras later, the free tier stays free.

Do you show ads to people who click my links?
No. Redirects are instant and clean. We earn from the content pages of this website, never by standing in front of your visitors.

Can I change where a link points later?
Yes — edit the destination any time from your dashboard. The short link itself never changes, so printed materials stay valid.

What happens to a link if I delete my account?
Your links stop working and your data is removed. Export anything you need first.

Do you sell click data?
No. Click statistics belong to the link owner. We collect only what the service needs to operate, described in our privacy policy.
