FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Minilink.
A dynamic URL redirect acts as a traffic router. You create a short code pointing to your target website. If that target changes, you edit the destination inside your Minilink dashboard — the short code stays the same permanently.
Yes. Pro and Enterprise plans support white-labeled custom domains. Just point a CNAME DNS record to our platform, register it in your dashboard, and immediately share links from your own brand domain.
Absolutely. All IP addresses are anonymized before database storage. We aggregate geo data server-side using MaxMind databases and never store personally identifiable visitor information.
Free plan QR codes do not expire. Pro and Enterprise codes are dynamic — you can update the destination URL at any time from your dashboard without reprinting the code.
Yes. We provide a full REST API accessible with an API key. You can create, update, delete, and retrieve link stats programmatically. Full API docs are available at /api-docs.
We will notify you via email when you reach 80% and 100% of your plan limits. Links created before the limit is hit continue to work normally — only new link creation is paused until you upgrade.
