    Step-by-step walkthroughs with screenshots covering everything from creating your first smart link to managing your team and analysing performance.

    Getting Started

    How to create a geo-smart-link

    Create one Smart Link that sends visitors to a different destination based on their country — Amazon UK for British shoppers, Amazon Australia for Australians, and a default URL for everyone else — all from your Geo-Smart-Links dashboard. Takes about three minutes and works on every plan, including Free.

    How to manage and edit your Smart Links

    Find, search, edit, enable or disable, and delete your Smart Links from the Links page — and export the list to CSV. Every change takes effect on the next click, and the short URL never changes, so anything you’ve already shared keeps working.

    Analytics

    How to read your link analytics

    Read your click data in the Analytics dashboard — total vs human vs bot clicks, country and device breakdowns, routing outcomes, peak hours and per-variant A/B results — then export it to CSV, Excel or PDF.

    How to manage your team

    Invite collaborators to your workspace, set their role, and manage who can access your Smart Links. Your plan sets how many members you can add — the owner doesn’t count towards the limit.

    How to route a Smart Link by device & OS

    Send iPhone visitors to the App Store, Android visitors to Google Play, and desktop users to your website — all from one Smart Link. Add device and operating-system rules in the link builder; an OS match beats a device-type match, and country rules still take priority.

    How to block countries on a Smart Link

    Stop visitors from specific countries reaching an offer that isn’t available or allowed in their region. Block individual countries or whole regions in one click, and choose what blocked visitors see — a hosted “not available” page or your own URL.

    How to A/B test and rotate link destinations

    Split one Smart Link’s traffic across two or more destinations by weight — rotate offers or A/B test landing pages — and see per-variant click counts in analytics. Country and device rules still take priority; rotation covers everyone else.

    How to open links in the app (deep linking)

    Make a Smart Link open Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify, Amazon or Discord in the native app instead of the browser — with a safe web fallback. Higher conversion, and it helps escape in-app browsers. It’s a single toggle.

    How to schedule when a Smart Link is active

    Set a Smart Link to go live at a future time and/or expire automatically — ideal for launches, flash sales and limited-time offers. Leave both blank to keep it always on. Times use your account timezone.

    How to create a custom short code (vanity URL)

    Pick your own memorable ending for a Smart Link — gsl.li/your-brand — instead of a random code, so the link reads clean and on-brand everywhere you share it. Availability is checked live as you type.

    How to create a dynamic QR code

    Generate a dynamic QR code for any Smart Link. Because the QR encodes the short URL, the printed code inherits your geo, device and OS routing, blocking, A/B and scheduling — and you can restyle it any time without reprinting.

    Create a single mobile-friendly page that holds all your links — perfect for an Instagram, TikTok or YouTube bio. Add a theme, social icons and an avatar, then share one short URL that routes like any other Smart Link.
