Linktree Pricing in 2026: Plans, Seller Fees, and What You Actually Pay
Gated and paid links on every plan. No platform branding, ever.

The short answer
Linktree costs $0 to $35 per month. The four plans are Free ($0), Starter ($8/mo), Pro ($15/mo) and Premium ($35/mo), with annual billing bringing those down to roughly $6, $12 and $30 a month. Linktree raised its paid prices in November 2025, and pricing varies by region.
The monthly fee is not the whole cost. Linktree also charges a seller fee on digital product sales: 12% on Free, 9% on Pro, and 0% only on Premium. Payment processing (Stripe, at 2.9% + $0.30) sits on top of that, on every plan and on every platform, including ours.
The practical consequence: once you sell more than about $222 a month in digital products, Linktree Pro at $15 costs you more than Premium at $35, because the 9% fee overtakes the $20 price gap. The cheap plan becomes the expensive one the moment the page starts earning.

01The sticker price
What Linktree charges per month
Four tiers, one free. Here is what each one is actually for, before we get to the part that is not printed on the pricing page.
| Linktree plan | Monthly | Billed annually | Seller fee on digital sales | Who it is for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | 12% | Listing links, with Linktree branding on your page |
| Starter | $8/mo | about $6/mo | See Linktree's current terms | Removing the badge, basic customization |
| Pro | $15/mo | about $12/mo | 9% | Deeper analytics, the plan most creators land on |
| Premium | $35/mo | about $30/mo | 0% | The only Linktree tier that stops taking a cut |
Prices checked July 2026. Linktree raised paid prices in November 2025 and charges different amounts in different regions, so confirm the current numbers on Linktree's own pricing page before you commit. We update this page when they move.
Annual billing saves roughly 20%
Paying for twelve months up front brings Pro to about $12 a month and Premium to about $30. It is a real discount, and it is also a twelve month commitment to a platform you may outgrow in three. Most creators who switch do it in year one.
Your price depends on your country
Linktree prices regionally, so the figure you see quoted in a US review is not necessarily the figure on your invoice. Check the number logged in from your own account rather than trusting a screenshot from a blog post, ours included.
The fee is the real price
A $15 plan that takes 9% of a $3,000 month is a $285 plan. The subscription line on your card statement is the small half of what Linktree costs a creator who sells. That is the entire point of the next section.
02The buried cost
The seller fee is what you are really paying
Linktree's pricing table is honest about the monthly number. The number that scales with your success sits somewhere else.
When you sell a digital product through Linktree, Linktree takes a percentage of each sale. It is 12% on the Free plan, 9% on Pro, and 0% only if you are on Premium at $35 a month. So the plan you chose because it was cheap is charging you a variable fee that has no ceiling, and the plan you skipped because it was expensive is the one that stops charging it.
Work the break-even and it gets stark. Linktree Pro costs $15 plus 9% of sales. Premium costs $35 plus nothing. Those two lines cross when 9% of your sales equals the $20 price gap, which happens at about $222 a month in digital sales. Sell more than that and Pro, the cheaper plan, is costing you more money than Premium every single month.
The free plan crosses even sooner. At 12%, the $0 plan costs more than $35 Premium once you clear roughly $292 a month in sales. One decent product launch and "free" is the most expensive option on the menu. Nothing about this is hidden exactly, but almost nobody does the arithmetic before they pick a tier, and Linktree is not in a hurry to do it for them.
To be fair to every platform here: Stripe's processing fee of 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction applies on Linktree, on Beacons, on Stan Store and on ExclusiveLink. Nobody escapes the card networks. What differs is the platform fee stacked on top of it, and whether that fee grows every time you have a good month.
03Run the numbers
What you actually pay at $1,000, $3,000 and $5,000 in monthly sales
Same creator, same products, same traffic. The only variable is which plan is collecting a percentage. Stripe processing is excluded because it is identical on every row and does not change the ranking.
| Monthly digital sales | Linktree Free $0 + 12% |
Linktree Pro $15 + 9% |
Linktree Premium $35 + 0% |
ExclusiveLink Pro $49 + 0% |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $1,000 | Cost $120 Keep $880 |
Cost $105 Keep $895 |
Cost $35 Keep $965 |
Cost $49 Keep $951 |
| $3,000 | Cost $360 Keep $2,640 |
Cost $285 Keep $2,715 |
Cost $35 Keep $2,965 |
Cost $49 Keep $2,951 |
| $5,000 | Cost $600 Keep $4,400 |
Cost $465 Keep $4,535 |
Cost $35 Keep $4,965 |
Cost $49 Keep $4,951 |
Read that table honestly and you will notice something we are not going to pretend away: at every volume, Linktree Premium keeps more of your money than ExclusiveLink Pro. Premium is $35, our Pro is $49, and both take 0%. On fee arithmetic alone, Linktree Premium wins by $14 a month. If the only thing you care about is the lowest possible cost per dollar of sales, that is the answer and you should take it.
What the arithmetic cannot show you is what the $14 buys: a custom domain from Pro, gated and paid links as the core of the product rather than an add-on, per-link revenue analytics with UTM, geo and device, and no platform branding on any plan we sell. That is the trade. We would rather you see it clearly than be talked into it.
The genuinely damning column is the one on the left. A creator doing $5,000 a month on Linktree's free plan is handing over $600 a month, $7,200 a year, to a plan they picked because it did not cost anything. Moving that person to any 0% plan, ours or Linktree's own Premium, is worth more than every design decision on their page combined. If you are weighing the full switch rather than just the tier, the Linktree alternative comparison covers what changes beyond price.
Where the plans cross over
| Free (12%) costs more than Pro (9% + $15) above | $500/mo |
| Pro (9% + $15) costs more than Premium ($35) above | $222/mo |
| Free (12%) costs more than Premium ($35) above | $292/mo |
| ExclusiveLink Creator (2% + $19) costs more than our Pro ($49) above | $1,500/mo |
Every crossover is just the price gap divided by the fee difference. Sell above the number in the right column and the cheaper looking plan is the expensive one.
04The wider market
How Linktree's pricing compares to everyone else
Almost every link in bio platform runs the same playbook: a low monthly price with a percentage on your sales, and a zero fee tier that costs a lot more per month.
| Platform | Entry price | Zero fee plan | Fee below that plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Linktree | Free, then $8/mo | Premium, $35/mo | 12% on Free, 9% on Pro |
| Beacons | Free, then $10/mo | Store Pro, $30/mo | 9% on Free and Creator Pro |
| Stan Store | $29/mo | Creator, $29/mo | No platform transaction fee at any tier |
| ExclusiveLink | $19/mo, no free tier | Pro, $49/mo | 2% on Creator, 0% on Pro and above |
Beacons undercuts on the zero fee tier
Beacons Store Pro reaches 0% at $30 a month, five dollars under Linktree Premium, with Business Pro at $90 above it. Below Store Pro you are paying 9%, which is the same trap in a different jersey. Beacons is a serious option and we will not pretend otherwise.
Stan Store charges no platform fee at all
Stan starts at $29 a month with no transaction fee, and Creator Pro is $99. There is no free tier and no cheap tier, which is a defensible way to price. You pay a real subscription and you keep your revenue. It is also the least flexible page of the group.
We charge more up front and less later
ExclusiveLink is $19 for Creator (2%), $49 for Pro (0%), $149 for Studio and custom for Enterprise. No free plan, no branding on any tier, custom domain from Pro. Our full breakdown lives on the link in bio pricing page.

05Honestly
When Linktree is the right answer
We sell a competing product, so treat this section as the one where we have every incentive to lie and are choosing not to.
You only list links and never sell
If your bio link points at a YouTube channel, a podcast and a Spotify profile, and no money ever changes hands on the page, Linktree's free plan is genuinely excellent and costs you nothing. A 12% seller fee on zero dollars of sales is zero dollars. We do not have a free tier and we are not going to invent a reason for you to pay us $19 a month to do something a free product does perfectly well.
You sell a little and want the lowest bill
Under about $220 a month in digital sales, Linktree Pro at $15 plus 9% is cheaper than anything we offer, and cheaper than Linktree's own Premium. If your page is a side project rather than a business, the honest advice is to stay put, keep the $15 plan, and revisit this page when a launch clears a few thousand dollars.
Where it stops working
The moment selling becomes the point of the page, Linktree's pricing starts working against you. You are either paying a fee that grows with every good month, or you are on Premium at $35 for a product where selling was always a bolt-on. That is the gap we built for.
What the fee actually buys back
On ExclusiveLink Pro, 0% platform fee means a $5,000 month costs $49, flat, forever. Add gated and paid links, your own domain, real per-link revenue analytics, and a page that carries nobody's branding but yours. The fee you stop paying funds a page that sells harder.
06Questions
Linktree pricing, answered directly
Is Linktree free?
Yes. Linktree has a real free plan at $0 a month, and for someone who only lists links it is genuinely enough. The catch is that the free plan charges a 12% seller fee on digital product sales and puts Linktree branding on your page. Free stays free only if you never sell.
How much does Linktree cost per month?
Linktree costs $0, $8, $15 or $35 a month for Free, Starter, Pro and Premium respectively. Billed annually, the paid tiers drop to roughly $6, $12 and $30 a month. Linktree raised its paid prices in November 2025, and the amount you are charged varies by region, so check your own account.
Does Linktree take a cut of your sales?
Yes. Linktree charges a seller fee on digital product sales: 12% on the Free plan, 9% on Pro, and 0% only on Premium at $35 a month. Stripe's payment processing of 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction is charged on top of that, and applies on every platform, including ExclusiveLink.
Is Linktree Pro worth it?
Only if you barely sell. Pro costs $15 a month plus a 9% seller fee, so it overtakes Premium ($35, 0% fee) once you clear about $222 a month in digital sales. Below that number Pro is a reasonable buy. Above it, you are paying extra for the privilege of being on the cheaper plan.
What is the cheapest way to sell from a link in bio?
It depends entirely on volume. Below roughly $300 a month in sales, a cheap percentage plan like Linktree Pro wins. Between $300 and $1,500, a low fee plan such as ExclusiveLink Creator ($19 plus 2%) or a 0% plan pays for itself. Above that, always take a flat 0% fee plan.
All figures on this page were checked in July 2026. Vendors change pricing without much warning, so confirm the current numbers on Linktree's site before you buy.
Stop paying a percentage
A fee that grows with you is not a plan. It is a tax.
ExclusiveLink Pro is $49 a month and takes 0% of your sales, at $1,000 or $50,000. Claim exclusive.link/yourname and keep what you earn.
