An all-in-one that a team can actually share.
Beacons is a creator-first all-in-one built around one owner. yLnk gives you the same breadth — bio, store, links, QR — plus real team roles, cross-channel campaign reporting, and branded subdomains for the whole suite.

Everything you create in one link.

Campaign performance
Where yLnk pulls ahead of Beacons
Focused on what a single-owner account cannot do.
Real team roles
Beacons is single-owner. yLnk gives Owner, Admin, Editor, Analyst, and Support roles, invite approval with a code and OTP, and an audit log.
Campaign reporting across channels
One view spanning QR links, LinkFolio, forms, and blog posts — not per-surface stats you stitch together.
Branded subdomains across the suite
Map one purpose-specific hostname per product to a domain you control.
Built for growth
Keep the breadth. Add a team.
Shared ownership
Add teammates instead of sharing one login and password.
Clean offboarding
Remove a member and their access to workspace resources ends immediately.
Attribution
See which link, QR, or profile drove each response or order.
One-purpose hosts
links., blog., and shop. each serve a single product, which keeps routing predictable.

The honest part
Where Beacons is the better pick
- A genuinely broad creator toolkit — media kit, email and SMS marketing, AI writing help — in one place.
- A polished, creator-first interface with monetization built in from the start.
- Strong for selling digital products and services without extra setup.
- If you are one person, the single-account model is simpler.
Better for:solo creators monetizing an audience who want a media kit, email and SMS tools, and a store in one creator-first app, and do not need team roles or a URL shortener.
