Which Linktree alternative fits depends on what you need. For pre-saves and release links, look at Feature.fm, Linkfire or Hypeddit. For a cheap page you design yourself, Carrd. To sell merch from your own site, Bandzoogle. For a website and link in bio that update themselves with every release, Loud.

We make Loud, so we're on this list. It isn't a ranking: the tools are grouped by what they're for, release promotion first, then selling, then pages you build or that build themselves, and Loud sits where it fits, last. Everything about the other tools comes from their own pages, linked below. Prices checked October 2026.

When might you want a Linktree alternative?

Linktree does a lot: its pricing page lists music links, pre-saves, tour dates and email sign-ups on the free plan. If it works for you, keep it. You might look elsewhere if:

  • You're tired of updating the same links by hand after every release.
  • You want a real website, not just a list of buttons.
  • You want other release tools: pre-saves, smart links, streaming stats.
  • You want to sell music or merch from your own page.

Feature.fm is built for promoting releases. If pre-saves are new to you, start with how Spotify pre-saves work. Every plan includes one bio link.

Free plan: yes, with one pre-save service and 7 days of stats. It collects fan emails, but you have to upgrade to see them.

Paid: Basic Artist US$8 a month, Artist US$19, Pro Artist US$39. Every plan starts with a 7 day free trial of Pro Artist.

Music features: pre-saves on Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, SoundCloud, Amazon Music, Deezer, YouTube Music and more; "Future Save" on Artist and Pro Artist, so a fan opts in once for your future releases; contests; Mailchimp sync on Pro Artist; your own domain on Artist and Pro Artist.

Better than Loud at: pre-saves. That's its core, and Loud can't create them.

Linkfire makes bio, pre-release, release, ticket and podcast links. Its pricing page says every plan includes full feature access; plans differ in workspaces and seats.

Free plan: a free trial with no card. If you don't pay after, the account becomes a limited free one.

Paid: Pro is $21 a month billed yearly or $27 monthly. Teams, for up to five artist workspaces, is $45 a month billed yearly or $55 monthly. Plus VAT where it applies.

Music features: streaming stats, where your listeners are, ad tracking pixels, your own domain, email collection and merch on bio links.

Better than Loud at: stats, and tools for teams that handle several artists.

3. Hypeddit: release promotion

Hypeddit isn't really a link in bio. It's a promotion tool you can put in your bio during a release: smart links, pre-saves, download gates and ads.

Free plan: yes, "Rookie", with unlimited smart links and download gates.

Paid: billed yearly, Basic is US$108 a year, Pro US$156 and Elite US$1,188. Its page also offers monthly billing; check the monthly price there.

Music features: download gates, pre-saves, fan emails, your own links and domain, and Spotify, YouTube and TikTok ad campaigns on Pro.

Better than Loud at: download gates and ads. Loud has neither.

Beacons is for creators in general, not musicians: link in bio, store and email in one account.

Free plan: yes. Unlimited links, a 9% fee on store sales and 50 email sends a month.

Paid: Creator US$8.33 a month billed yearly (US$100) or US$10 monthly. Creator Plus US$25 a month billed yearly (US$300) or US$30 monthly, with a 0% sales fee. There's also Creator Max; check its price on the pricing page.

Better than Loud at: selling products from the same page. We compare the two in Loud vs Beacons.

5. Bandzoogle: a full website with a store

Bandzoogle is a website builder for musicians, with tools to sell from your own site.

Free plan: none on its pricing page. A 14 day free trial.

Paid: Lite US$9.16 a month billed yearly (US$11 monthly), Standard US$14.16 (US$17), Pro US$18.33 (US$22). Every plan includes a .com domain free while you're a member.

Music features: 0% commission on music, merch and tickets, fan subscriptions, a music player, a press kit page and email newsletters.

Better than Loud at: selling, design freedom and number of pages. Full comparison in Loud vs Bandzoogle.

6. Carrd: a cheap one-page site you design

Carrd makes simple one-page sites. It isn't made for music, but it's flexible and cheap.

Free plan: yes, with Carrd branding.

Paid: Pro Lite US$9 a year (3 sites, no branding). Pro Standard US$19 a year adds your own domain, forms and analytics.

Better than Loud at: price and design freedom. The catch: you build and update everything yourself.

Loud starts from one of your songs (you search it and tap yours) and builds two pages: a full website (yourname.stayloud.co) and a link in bio (stayloud.co/yourname). Every day it checks for new music and new YouTube videos. When it finds something new, both pages update and the release gets its own page with Spotify and Apple Music buttons.

Free plan: none. You build your page for free, and publishing starts a 14 day free trial.

Paid: Pro is US$4 a month billed yearly (US$48) or US$5 monthly. Tour is US$12 a month billed yearly (US$144) or US$15 monthly.

Limits: Loud is new (October 2026). You need at least one song out on streaming. It doesn't sell merch or tickets and can't create pre-saves itself. Fan sign-up and fan emails turn on once you confirm the page is yours, usually by sending us a code from your Instagram. Fan emails come with Tour. A website builder gives you much more design freedom.

Which Linktree alternative should you pick?

  • You run pre-save campaigns: Feature.fm or Linkfire.
  • You give away downloads or run ads: Hypeddit.
  • You sell digital products: Beacons.
  • You sell music, merch and tickets from your own site: Bandzoogle.
  • You want to design one page yourself for very little: Carrd.
  • You want a website and link in bio that update themselves when you release: Loud.
  • You want lots of integrations and a store in one link: stay on Linktree. See Loud vs Linktree.

FAQ

Is there a free Linktree alternative for musicians?

Yes. Feature.fm, Hypeddit, Beacons and Carrd have free plans. Linkfire has a trial, then a limited free account. Loud and Bandzoogle have a 14 day trial, with no free plan.

Which Linktree alternative has pre-saves?

Feature.fm, Linkfire and Hypeddit create them, and so does Linktree. Loud doesn't: you paste the pre-save link from your distributor and Loud shows it on your site and link in bio.

Yes, with Bandzoogle (0% commission), Beacons or Linktree. Loud doesn't sell merch or tickets.

A link in bio gets people from Instagram or TikTok to your music (here's what to put in it). A website holds everything (music, videos, shows, contact) and can show up on Google. Loud and Bandzoogle give you a full website and Carrd a one-page site; the others focus on link pages.

Which is the cheapest option?

Of the paid plans here, Carrd's Pro Lite, at US$9 a year. But you build everything yourself. Among music tools, Feature.fm starts at US$8 a month and Loud Pro at US$4 a month billed yearly. Feature.fm and Hypeddit also have free plans.

Your website and link in bio, built from your music.

You make the music. Loud builds both from your songs, keeps them up to date with every release, and gathers your fans so you can write to them directly.
