Pointerly vs Linktree
Linktree is great for a single link in your bio—but if you're an Amazon Associate or creator who needs smart links, multiple affiliate tags, and real analytics, you're paying a lot for features that weren't built for you. Pointerly is.
Why switch
Why creators choose Pointerly over Linktree
Not just a comparison—here’s why switching pays off.
Linktree wasn't built for affiliate links
Linktree excels at one link and simple link-in-bio pages. When you need to send followers to Amazon (or different marketplaces), track which links convert, or rotate affiliate tags by campaign, you hit limits fast. Pointerly is built around affiliate link management: smart deep links that open the app or correct store, affiliate tag management, and click tracking so you know what's working.
Real analytics without upgrading
On Linktree, detailed analytics are behind a paywall. With Pointerly you get real-time click data, device and country breakdown, and link-level stats on the free plan. That means you can optimize your bio and links before you spend a dollar.
Custom domain and more links from day one
Linktree's free tier gives you one link and a linktr.ee subdomain. Pointerly gives you 50 links on the free plan and supports custom domains on paid tiers so your links and bio page look like you, not a brand.
One place for links, bio pages, deals, and Creator Connect
Beyond link-in-bio, Pointerly adds deal discovery, AI-powered post ideas, and Creator Connect so you can apply to brand campaigns and get paid. Linktree has expanded too, but not with an Amazon-first, affiliate-first focus. If your income comes from affiliates, Pointerly is built for that.
