How it works
Set up your domain
Add a custom domain and verify DNS via CNAME, or start immediately with the default Acturity domain.
Create your link
Enter a destination URL, choose a custom slug (3-20 characters), and set optional rules for expiration, passwords, or geo-targeting.
Share and track
Distribute your link anywhere — every click is tracked in real time with geographic, device, browser, and referrer data.
