    Dub.co Alternative with Free Geo-Routing

    The same smart routing, without paying for Pro

    Dub is a slick, modern link platform — free custom domains, deep links, QR codes, and analytics that developers love. But its geo targeting, device targeting and A/B testing are reserved for the Pro plan (around $25/month), and branded links still mean connecting a domain you own. Geo-Smart-Links includes country and device routing and A/B testing on the free tier, and gives you a branded gsl.li subdomain with nothing to buy — built for affiliates and creators rather than SaaS attribution.

    Pricing

    Dub has a generous free tier and free custom domains, but the routing that matters — geo targeting, device targeting and A/B testing — sits behind Pro at around $25/month, and branded links need a domain you own. Geo-Smart-Links includes geo and device routing and A/B testing on its free tier, and gives you a branded gsl.li subdomain with nothing to register. Dub wins if you need deep conversion attribution or to run an affiliate program; Geo-Smart-Links is simpler and cheaper for creators who just need smart routing.
