Is Linktree Free? What You Actually Get (And What It Costs)

"Is Linktree free?" is one of the most searched questions about link-in-bio tools — with good reason. Linktree has a free plan but it comes with significant restrictions that most people only discover after they've already set up their profile and started using it. This guide breaks down exactly what you get on Linktree's free plan, what costs extra and what a genuinely free alternative looks like.

What Linktree's free plan actually includes

  • Unlimited links — you can add as many links as you want
  • Basic click analytics — total clicks only, no breakdown by country, device or referrer
  • Limited customisation — a small selection of themes, no custom colours on free
  • Linktree branding on your page — their logo appears at the bottom
  • No custom domain — your URL is linktr.ee/yourname not your own domain
  • No email capture — collecting subscriber emails requires a paid plan
  • No scheduling — you can't schedule links to go live at specific times on free

What Linktree locks behind a paid plan

  • Detailed analytics — country, device and referrer breakdowns
  • Remove Linktree branding from your page
  • Custom domain support
  • Email capture and subscriber management
  • Priority customer support
  • Advanced customisation — custom colours, fonts, backgrounds
  • Integrations with Mailchimp, HubSpot and other tools

How much does Linktree cost?

Linktree's paid plans start at around $5/month (Starter), with the full Pro plan at around $24/month. Pricing is in USD and varies by region. For UK users this means paying in dollars with currency conversion on top — and the plans have changed multiple times, with previous free features being moved to paid tiers.

Pricing changes

Linktree has moved features from free to paid tiers several times. Features that were free when you signed up may now require a paid plan. Always check the current pricing at linktree.com/pricing.
