How WarpLink Keeps Every Link Redirecting
How WarpLink keeps links redirecting on every plan: deep linking, install attribution, and real-time analytics in one SDK, with published pricing.
TL;DR: WarpLink is link infrastructure for mobile teams: deep linking, install attribution, and real-time analytics in one SDK. It's built on one rule: your links on aplnk.to never stop redirecting, even on the free tier, even after you stop paying. Pricing starts at $0 with no sales call. Create a free account and create your first link in minutes.
One Rule: Your Links Never Stop Redirecting
WarpLink is built on a single promise: redirects are never blocked. Pass your free-tier click limit and your links keep firing. Cancel your plan entirely and links on your app's own aplnk.to address still resolve. A custom domain serves while your plan includes it: the Free plan includes a 3-month trial, and after a paid plan ends there is a grace period of up to 30 days (see plan changes). Only the analytics view and custom domains beyond the trial gate behind an upgrade, never the link itself.
That sounds obvious until you've shipped on something that broke it. Deep linking has long been a bad trade. The dependable services hide the price behind a sales call, meter you per link or per click, and set minimums a small team can't justify. The cheaper options leave your links at the mercy of someone else's roadmap. Either way, a solo developer or a five-person team gets squeezed.
WarpLink is the deep linking, attribution, and analytics layer that doesn't put your links at that kind of risk, and doesn't make you call sales to learn the price.
One SDK: Link, Attribute, Measure
The same SDK that routes a tap to the right screen also tells you which link drove the install and shows you the click in your dashboard. One integration, not three vendors stitched together.
| Capability | What you get | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| Linking | One URL for iOS, Android, and web | Universal Links, App Links, and deferred deep links that survive the install. AASA and assetlinks.json are generated and hosted when you register an app. |
| Attribution | Know which link drove each install | An exact Play Install Referrer match on Android first. Probabilistic matching serves iOS, and Android when no referrer is available. No advertising identifiers and no IDFA. The SDK tells you which method matched. |
| Analytics | See clicks soon after they land | Click events reach your dashboard within minutes, deduplicated server-side so retries and duplicates don't inflate your numbers. |
Speed is part of it. Redirects resolve at the edge, close to the user instead of in one region, in under 10ms.
You can also run links on a domain you control, like go.yourapp.com, so every tap carries your brand instead of a generic shortener. The branded domain is free to try for three months and a paid feature after that. Links on your app's own aplnk.to address keep resolving either way. Links on a custom domain stop when the domain stops serving: it serves while your plan includes it, and after a paid plan ends there is a grace period of up to 30 days.
Why Your Links Are Safe With Us
Reliability is the whole job of link infrastructure. Our team ships updates constantly and answers support directly, and we built WarpLink so your links never depend on a proprietary format.
That's because they're built on the platform's own Universal Links and App Links, not a proprietary format only we can resolve. They point at destinations you control, and the link data is yours to export through the API anytime.
The SDKs are open source under MIT, so the code running on your users' devices is yours to keep and fork.
You can audit the SDKs and export your data before you ship a single link.

Pricing You Can Read
Pricing is published on the page, with no "contact sales" anywhere in the funnel. The free tier is a real product, not a trial.
| Plan | Price | Tracked clicks / mo |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 10,000 |
| Starter | $19 | 100,000 |
| Growth | $49 | 500,000 |
| Scale | $99 | 2,000,000 |
| Unlimited | $149 | No click ceiling |
The free tier needs no credit card and never expires. Annual billing gives you two months free on every paid plan, and you upgrade in two clicks the day you cross 10,000 clicks and want your analytics back. Full details are on the pricing page.
Initialize in One Line, Integrate in an Afternoon
The SDK starts with one call:
import WarpLink
// Initialize once. Deep links and deferred deep links flow to onLink.
// SDK key from Keys > SDK
WarpLink.configure(
apiKey: "wl_live_yoursdkkeyhere000000000000000000",
options: WarpLinkOptions(onLink: { result in
if case .success(let deepLink) = result, let deepLink {
navigate(to: deepLink)
}
})
)
That's the init. A full deep-link setup also needs your associated-domains entitlement, a handler for incoming links, and your apple-app-site-association or assetlinks.json hosted, which WarpLink generates for you. Creating a link in the dashboard takes seconds. Getting Universal Links verified on a device can take longer, because that waits on Apple and Google refreshing your association files.
If you're migrating from another service, the migration guides map existing URLs across, and the deep linking comparisons weigh the cost and lock-in of the alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from a URL shortener? A shortener turns a long URL into a short one. WarpLink routes the tap to the right screen inside your app, carries context through an install so a new user lands where they meant to, attributes the install to the link, and counts the click. The short URL is the easy part.
Do I need separate tools for attribution and analytics? No. The same SDK that creates and resolves the link also attributes the install and records the click. One integration, one dashboard, one bill, instead of a deep linking vendor plus a separate attribution provider plus an analytics tool.
Is the free tier really free, and what counts as a tracked click? The free tier is 10,000 tracked clicks a month, no credit card, no expiry. A tracked click is a deduplicated visit to one of your links, whether it ends in a redirect or opens your app directly, so retries and duplicates do not eat your quota. Past the limit your redirects keep firing and only the analytics view asks you to upgrade. It is a real free tier, not a trial that turns into an invoice.
