Link-in-bio tools help creators and brands get around social media platform limitations. Think of them as a workaround for not being able to add clickable links to posts, and for the cap on the number of links you can have in your bio.
As of 2026, you can include five links in your Instagram bio, and one link on TikTok. These tools help bring more content front and center for your followers.
Ahead, learn about six popular link-in-bio tools with real examples from brands.
What is a link-in-bio tool?
A link-in-bio tool is a mobile-friendly landing page builder designed for social media. These tools are popular with creators who want to monetize Instagram without creating a website, since they provide a go-to place to include your affiliate links.
Your brand can also use link-in-bio tools to help turn viewers into customers by sharing multiple calls to action (CTAs) on a single mobile-friendly page.
Some link-in-bio tools let you do more than just add multiple links. Here are a few extra features to look for:
- Shopping tools. These let you embed products with buttons for customers to add items to their carts or buy now.
- Lead capture forms. Easily embed a newsletter sign-up or other type of contact collection form into your bio link page.
- Embeds. You can embed media like videos and songs for a more dynamic experience.
- QR code generators. Customers at in-person events can scan a QR code that opens your landing page.
- Analytics. Some link-in-bio tools track information, like how many people accessed your landing page and how many clicks each link received.
- Drag-and-drop editor. This feature makes it easy to customize your page without coding.
