Plans and Subscription

This guide explains where to choose a plan in Uplinkly, how free and paid access work, and when you need an active subscription for extended platform functionality.

How Plans Work in Uplinkly

Uplinkly includes a free starting tier so new users can test the platform, connect their first domains, and create branded short links without committing to a paid subscription immediately.

As your needs grow, you can upgrade to a paid plan to unlock more slots, extended capabilities, provider integrations, and internal domain-purchase workflows.

In short:

The free plan is designed for testing and initial usage. Paid plans are intended for users who need more scale, more flexibility, and access to advanced workflows.

Where You Can Choose a Plan

Uplinkly allows users to open the subscription flow from several different places, depending on whether they are already registered or still exploring the platform.

Before registration

If you are not registered yet, you can open the plans page directly here:

This is the main public pricing and subscription page available before account creation.

After registration

If you already have an account, you can manage subscription-related actions from your settings page:

This is where users typically review balance, plan information, slots, and account-level provider settings.

There is also an additional entry point on the main website near the bottom of the page, close to the footer, where users can navigate into the plan-selection flow.

What the Free Plan Includes

The free plan is meant to help users get started with the platform and test the core short-link workflow.

Domains

Up to 5

Free-plan users can add up to 5 domains to their workspace.

Short links

Up to 100

Free-plan users can generate up to 100 short links.

This makes the free plan suitable for testing, early setup, and smaller branded-link workflows.

What Paid Access Unlocks

A paid subscription is intended for users who need more capacity and access to additional platform functionality.

  • More domain slots
  • Unlimited short links
  • Extended workflow flexibility
  • Access to internal domain-purchase flow
  • Support for provider-based account integrations where required

If you plan to work with more domains, generate links at scale, or use more advanced domain and provider flows, upgrading to a paid plan is the correct next step.

When a Paid Subscription Is Required

Some workflows in Uplinkly are intentionally tied to paid access. This keeps the free tier simple while reserving more advanced operations for users who need a larger-scale setup.

More domain slots

If you need to go beyond the free-plan domain limit, you need an active paid plan.

Unlimited short links

Removing the short-link cap requires upgrading from the free tier.

Internal domain purchase

Buying domains inside the platform requires a paid subscription and available balance.

Expanded usage

As your branded-link and domain workflow grows, paid access becomes the natural upgrade path.

Buying Domains Inside the Platform

Uplinkly supports domain purchases inside the platform using the built-in workflow. This allows users to handle domain acquisition without leaving the service.

To use that flow, you need:

  • an active paid subscription
  • enough balance in your account
Important:

The internal domain-purchase flow is not available as a free-plan feature. It is part of the paid workflow and also depends on account balance.

Managing Subscription-Related Actions After Registration

Once registered, the main place for plan-related actions is the settings page. This is where users typically manage:

  • current balance
  • plan-related limits
  • next payment date
  • additional domain slots
  • provider connection settings

Choosing a Plan Before Registration

For users who are still evaluating the platform, the public pricing page is the main place to review and choose a subscription before account creation.

This is the best entry point if you want to review plan options first and then decide whether to register directly into a paid workflow.
