Save 50-80 characters per message
The difference between a 1-part SMS and a 2-part SMS is your billing rate. Short links keep your messages under 160 characters and cut send costs.
SMS messages cap at 160 characters. A raw URL can eat 80 of them. A ZipLink URL uses 25 — leaving room for your actual message.
The difference between a 1-part SMS and a 2-part SMS is your billing rate. Short links keep your messages under 160 characters and cut send costs.
Unlike email open rates, SMS lacks native tracking. A unique ZipLink per campaign gives you actual click data to measure what converts.
Run a Black Friday SMS blast? Create /bf-sale. Running a loyalty offer? Create /members-deal. Keep campaigns cleanly separated in your analytics.
Set an expiry on flash sale links so they stop working when the promotion ends — no risk of customers clicking old offers you no longer honor.

Free account. No credit card. Full analytics on every link.
Are ZipLink short links SMS-safe?
Yes. Our links are plain HTTPS URLs with no special characters. They render correctly in all major SMS platforms and carrier networks.
Will carriers flag my short links as spam?
ZipLink maintains a clean domain reputation. However, SMS spam classification depends on your message content and sender ID compliance — not the link shortener.
Can I track how many recipients clicked?
Yes. Each unique link gets its own click counter. Create one link per campaign and you'll have clear click-through data.
