Start with what the page has to do
There is no single best link in bio tool, because the job changes. If you only need a tidy list of links, almost every tool below does it free. If the page has to take money, the fee on each sale matters more than the monthly price. If you answer Instagram comments with a link, the page matters less than the tool that sends it. Pick the job first, then the tool.
A disclosure before the list: DMFast publishes this post, and DMFast is one of the tools in it. It is labelled “ours”, it is never listed first, and its limits are stated like everyone else’s. Everything said here about other products comes from their own pricing and help pages, as recorded on 6 October 2026. Plans and fees change often, so open the current page before you pay anyone.
| If you need… | Look at |
|---|---|
| A free page of unlimited links | Linktree, Taplink, Komi, hoo.be, Milkshake |
| A page that sells digital products | Beacons, Komi, hoo.be, Milkshake, Taplink Business, SuperProfile, Topmate |
| A bio page plus Instagram auto-DMs | SuperProfile, Zorcha, Reachlee, Topmate, DMFast (ours) |
| A one-page site you lay out yourself | Carrd |
| A bio page inside a post scheduler | Later |
| A store paid for in rupees through Razorpay | DMFast’s store (ours, India only) |
Free pages with unlimited links
If your page is a list of links, you should not be paying yet. These tools all have a free plan that does that job. The differences are in what gets locked behind the paid tiers.
- Linktree: the free plan lists unlimited basic links and email and phone sign-ups. The paid tiers add a personalised page, custom designs, branding removal, mailing list integrations and, on its top tier, link rules, data export and Instagram auto-replies. Prices and which feature sits on which tier have shifted, so read its pricing page.
- Taplink: the free Basic plan has unlimited links, maps, messenger and social buttons, page-view stats and a QR code. Payments, digital products, lead forms and a custom domain need the Business plan, and paid plans are sold for at least three months at a time.
- Komi: the free Starter plan gives a custom mini-site, unlimited content and affiliate links, unlimited fan contacts, analytics and access to brand deals. Pro is $16 a month on the page (shown with $20 crossed out and 20% off for annual billing) and adds a custom domain, no Komi branding and email campaigns.
- hoo.be: the free plan has one profile, unlimited links, basic analytics, limited contact collection, a tip jar and hoo.be branding. Pro is $9.99 a month and Premium $29.99, which allows up to five profiles and custom domains.
- Milkshake: a phone app that builds a mobile site out of cards. Free has unlimited links and cards. Removing the Milkshake branding costs US$2.99 a month on Lite.
Tip: Free plans are cheapest to leave early and expensive to leave late. Before you spend an evening designing a page, check whether you can export your contacts and whether your own domain works on the free plan. On most of these tools it does not.
Pages that also sell, and what each sale costs
Many link in bio tools now sell digital products, and this is where the real price hides. A tool can be free to use and still keep a slice of every sale. The fee falls as you move up the plans, so work out which side of the line your sales put you on.
| Tool | Cost as recorded | Fee on sales |
|---|---|---|
| Beacons | Free; Creator $10 a month; Creator Plus $30 a month | 9% on Free and Creator; 0% from Creator Plus |
| hoo.be | Free; Pro $9.99; Premium $29.99 a month | 9% on Free, 5% on Pro, 0% on Premium |
| Milkshake | Free; Lite US$2.99 a month; Pro and Pro+ billed yearly | 12% on Free and Lite, 9% on Pro, 7% on Pro+, plus Stripe’s fee |
| Komi | Starter free; Pro $16 a month | 0% on digital products on Pro; Starter’s fee is not stated on its pricing page |
| SuperProfile | Starter free; Creator $29 a month ($4.99 for the first month) | Its pricing page says 0% commission; selling needs Creator |
| Topmate | No monthly fee to sell | 10% on sales through your link, 20% through its marketplace |
| Taplink | Basic free; payments on Business | Not recorded |
Read the Milkshake row twice: its fee is on top of the payment processor’s fee, which is how most of these tools work. If a pricing page does not say whether the processor’s fee is separate, assume it is and ask before you rely on the numbers. Whether each of these can pay out to an Indian bank account, or accept UPI from your buyers, is not something the pages above settle, so test with a real small purchase before you promote a link.
A bio page that works with your Instagram automations
If your growth plan is “comment a word, get the link”, the bio page and the auto-DM tool are best in one account, so the link a bot sends and the page it lands on can be tracked together. Several tools bundle both.
- SuperProfile: a link-in-bio store with Instagram AutoDMs. The free Starter plan runs unlimited AutoDMs on Reels and posts. Story, DM and Live auto-replies, up to five Instagram accounts and selling products, courses and bookings need Creator at $29 a month.
- Zorcha: unlimited automations, DMs and contacts on the free plan, which also includes a link-in-bio page with templates, buttons and embeds. Collecting emails or phone numbers in DMs starts on Pro at $14.99 a month ($9.99 billed yearly).
- Reachlee: a bio page and click tracking come with the free plan, which has 1,000 DMs a month and 100 contacts and carries Reachlee branding. Pro is $9 a month.
- Topmate: your Topmate page is the single link for sessions, products and social links, and Instagram Auto DM is a separate subscription, from ₹399 a month.
Later sits at the other end: a scheduler whose Link in Bio tool is on every plan, with no free plan, only a 14-day trial. At the time of writing its cheapest plan is US$18.75 a month billed yearly. It makes sense if you already schedule posts there, and the pricing page lists no comment-to-DM replies.
A one-page site you design yourself: Carrd
Carrd is not a link in bio tool in the narrow sense. It builds a full one-page site from templates, and you decide the layout rather than filling in a preset list. Up to three sites are free. Paid plans are billed by the year, with custom domains, forms and widgets from $19 a year at the time of writing.
The trade is that payments are not built in. Taking money means embedding Stripe, PayPal or Gumroad widgets, which start at Pro Standard. Free sites also show a “Made with Carrd” footer. It suits someone who wants a cheap, good-looking page with a custom domain, and is happy to wire up payments by hand.
Ours: DMFast’s link-in-bio page and store
DMFast is an app that answers Instagram and Facebook comments and DMs automatically, and it has a link-in-bio page and tracked links alongside that. Its store is for sellers in India: digital products, lead magnets (a free product in exchange for an email and optionally a phone number) and 1-on-1 bookings, paid through Razorpay. DMFast takes no fee on sales, and Razorpay’s fee comes out of each payment before your payout.
The limits are real. DMFast works only with Instagram professional accounts and Facebook Pages, not WhatsApp, TikTok or Threads. The store is India only. It is not a general site builder, so if you want to design a free-form page with your own layout, Carrd is a better fit. If you do not use Instagram automation at all, a plain free page from the first group will do the same job.
What to check before you pay, especially in India
- Find the fee on sales and the plan where it drops. For anyone selling, this number matters more than the subscription.
- Check the branding rule. Free plans on most of these tools put the vendor’s name on your page. Decide whether you mind that, and what removing it costs.
- Look at the billing currency. Most of the tools above list prices in dollars or euros; Topmate lists its Auto DM plans in rupees. Foreign-currency billing can add card charges you will not see on the pricing page.
- Do a test purchase on your own page with UPI and a card. Confirm the money reaches your bank account and see how long it takes.
- Find out how to leave. Can you export your contacts? Does the vendor let you point your own domain at the page?
- Open the page again in three months. Every record behind this post is dated, and tiers move.
Tip: Selling anything in India raises questions that no link in bio tool can answer for you: when GST applies and how the income is taxed. Our posts on GST and income tax for creators explain the basics, and a chartered accountant can answer your own case.
Questions people ask
Which link in bio tool is best for a beginner in India?
One with a free plan that you can leave. Linktree, Taplink, Komi, hoo.be and Milkshake all have one, as recorded on 6 October 2026. Start there, add the payment and automation tools only when a real need appears, and test any payment feature with a small purchase first.
Do I need a link in bio tool at all?
Not always. Instagram lets you put up to five links in your bio on its own, according to its Help Center. A tool helps when you want more than five, tracking, a sign-up form or a store. If most of your links go out in replies to comments, the automation tool matters more than the page.
Can I sell digital products from a link in bio page?
Yes, on tools that include a store: Beacons, Komi, hoo.be, Milkshake, SuperProfile, Topmate, Taplink Business and DMFast’s store for sellers in India. Each takes a share of sales, charges a subscription, or both, so compare the fee as well as the monthly price.
Is Linktree free?
Linktree has a free plan with unlimited basic links and email and phone sign-ups, as of its pricing page in October 2026. Its paid tiers add design, analytics, selling and Instagram tools. The tiers have been rearranged before, so check which feature you want sits on which plan.
Does DMFast replace my link in bio tool?
It can, if you only need a simple page and tracked links alongside Instagram or Facebook automation. It is not a free-form page builder and the store works only for sellers in India, so keep a separate tool if you want full design control.
