What ShortifyMe is

ShortifyMe combines URL shortening, QR code generation, branded links, link management, and click or scan analytics. It works through the web, Chrome and Edge extensions, and a REST API. A free account provides 10 new short links and five QR codes each month without a credit card; guests can create five combined links or QR codes without signing up. QR codes can include logos, colors, patterns, and corners, with SVG, PNG, and PNG 1200 downloads. Free analytics show total and unique clicks, while paid plans add breakdowns by device, browser, operating system, referrer, and location. Paid plans provide custom domains and API access using bearer-token authentication, with monthly request limits by plan. ShortifyMe says links are checked for malicious content and suspicious destinations receive a warning page. It does not show ads on links. Plans include Starter at 7.99 USD monthly, Basic at 19.99 USD monthly, and Premium at 49.99 USD monthly; annual pricing starts at $6.39 a month.
