Linktree has four pricing tiers. The monthly cost ranges from $0 to $35 depending on which plan you choose.
But the subscription price only tells part of the story. Transaction fees, missing features, and the tools you need to add on top of Linktree all affect what you actually pay each month.
Here is the full breakdown.
TL;DR: Linktree costs $0 (Free), $8 (Starter), $15 (Pro), or $35 (Premium) per month. Annual billing saves about 20%. If you sell anything through Linktree, transaction fees of 9-12% apply on all plans except Premium. Creators who sell live sessions typically spend $40+/month when you add the video and scheduling tools Linktree doesn't include.
Linktree Monthly Pricing: All Four Plans
Linktree raised its prices in November 2025. Here is what each plan costs now.
| Plan | Monthly Price | Annual Price (per month) | Annual Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | N/A |
| Starter | $8 | ~$6.40 | ~20% |
| Pro | $15 | ~$12 | ~20% |
| Premium | $35 | ~$28 | ~20% |
Before the price hike, Starter was $5, Pro was $9, and Premium was $24. That is a 46-67% increase depending on the plan.
Every plan includes unlimited links. The differences come down to customization, analytics, lead capture, and commerce fees.
What Each Plan Includes
Here is a quick look at what you get (and what you don't) on each tier.
Free ($0/month)
- Unlimited links with drag-and-drop ordering
- Basic themes and color options
- Simple analytics (total views and clicks)
- QR code generation
- Social icons
- Embedded video with autoplay
- Commerce with a 12% transaction fee
The free plan handles basic link-in-bio needs. If you just want to point your Instagram followers to your YouTube, podcast, and website, this is all you need.
Starter ($8/month)
- Everything in Free, plus:
- Custom backgrounds and stock images
- Link animations and spotlight effects
- Affiliate link support
- Enhanced analytics (device, location, referral data)
- Commerce fee drops to 9%
Starter is the entry-level upgrade for creators who want their page to look more polished. The better analytics help you understand where your traffic comes from.
Pro ($15/month)
- Everything in Starter, plus:
- Remove Linktree branding
- Email and phone number collection
- Conversion tracking
- Link scheduling
- Integrations (Mailchimp, Zapier, Google Sheets)
- Facebook and TikTok pixel support
- Commerce fee stays at 9%
Pro is the most popular paid plan. Email collection and branded pages make it the minimum for creators who want to grow a list from their bio link.
Premium ($35/month)
- Everything in Pro, plus:
- 0% commerce fee on all sales
- SEO metadata controls
- Full API access
- Team collaboration
- Unlimited social scheduling across 3 brands
- Lifetime analytics (no rolling window)
- Concierge onboarding
Premium's main selling point is eliminating the transaction fee. If your monthly sales through Linktree exceed about $389, the Premium subscription pays for itself compared to paying 9% on Pro.
The Fees Most People Miss
The monthly subscription is just one cost. If you sell anything through Linktree, transaction fees change the math significantly.
Transaction Fees by Plan
| Plan | Linktree Fee | Stripe Fee | Payout Fee | Total on a $50 Sale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $6.00 (12%) | $1.75 | $0.25 | $8.00 |
| Starter | $4.50 (9%) | $1.75 | $0.25 | $6.50 |
| Pro | $4.50 (9%) | $1.75 | $0.25 | $6.50 |
| Premium | $0 (0%) | $1.75 | $0.25 | $2.00 |
On the Free plan, you lose 16% of a $50 sale to fees. Even on Pro, it is 13%. Only Premium gets you close to standard payment processing costs.
These fees apply to digital product sales, tips, and commerce transactions. They are on top of the monthly subscription.
What $500/month in Sales Actually Costs You
Say you sell $500 worth of digital products per month through Linktree. Here is your true monthly cost on each plan.
| Plan | Subscription | Transaction Fees | Stripe Fees | You Keep |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $60 | ~$16 | ~$424 |
| Starter | $8 | $45 | ~$16 | ~$431 |
| Pro | $15 | $45 | ~$16 | ~$424 |
| Premium | $35 | $0 | ~$16 | ~$449 |
At $500/month in sales, Premium saves you about $18-25/month compared to other tiers. But notice that the Pro plan actually costs more than Free at this volume because the $15 subscription doesn't offset enough in fee savings.
What Linktree Does Not Include
Linktree is a link-in-bio tool. It organizes your links and handles basic commerce. But there are several things it does not do that affect your real monthly cost if you need them.
No Video Calls
If you sell coaching sessions, consulting calls, or any kind of live meeting, Linktree cannot host the call. You need Zoom ($13.33/month for Pro) or another video platform. Linktree's booking feature schedules the session but does not provide the video room.
No Session Recording or AI Notes
Linktree does not record sessions or generate summaries. If you run paid calls through Zoom, you manage recordings yourself. There are no automatic transcripts, no AI-generated takeaways, and no shared session notes.
No Client Management
Linktree tracks transactions but does not track client relationships. No session history, no intake forms, no follow-up tools. If you do repeat sessions with clients, you are managing that in a spreadsheet or separate CRM.
No Workshops or Group Sessions
You cannot sell tickets to a live event through Linktree. There is no group video functionality, no attendee management, and no capacity limits.
The Real Monthly Cost for Creators Who Sell Sessions
Creators who sell their time through live sessions often need a stack of tools on top of Linktree. Here is what that stack typically costs.
| Tool | Monthly Cost |
|---|---|
| Linktree Pro | $15 |
| Zoom Pro (for video calls) | $13.33 |
| Calendly Standard (for scheduling) | $12 |
| Total before any revenue | $40.33/month |
That is $40.33/month in subscriptions before you earn a dollar. Add the 9% Linktree transaction fee and Stripe processing on your revenue, and the real cost climbs fast.
For a creator doing $1,000/month in paid sessions through this stack:
- Subscriptions: $40.33
- Linktree fee (9% on $1,000): $90
- Stripe fees: ~$32
- Total: $162.33/month
That is a 16.2% effective cost on your revenue.
How Talkspresso Compares
If you sell live sessions, Talkspresso replaces Linktree, Zoom, and Calendly with a single platform.
| Linktree + Zoom + Calendly | Talkspresso | |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly subscription | $40.33 | $0 |
| Transaction fee | 9% (Linktree) | 10% (flat) |
| Payment processing | Stripe fees | Stripe fees |
| Video calls | Zoom (separate tool) | Built-in HD |
| Scheduling | Calendly (separate tool) | Built-in |
| Session recording | Manual (Zoom) | Automatic |
| AI session summaries | No | Yes |
| Client management | No | Yes |
| Workshops (up to 500) | No | Yes |
On $1,000/month in revenue, Talkspresso costs about $132 (10% fee + Stripe). The Linktree stack costs $162.33. That is $30/month saved, and you get recording, AI notes, and client management included.
At lower volumes, the gap is even wider. A creator earning $500/month pays $40.33 in subscriptions alone with the Linktree stack, before any transaction fees. With Talkspresso, they pay nothing until they earn.
Which Linktree Plan Should You Choose?
Free works if you only share links and do not sell anything. No reason to pay for link organization.
Starter ($8/month) makes sense if you want visual customization and better analytics but do not sell through Linktree. The 9% fee is still steep for sellers.
Pro ($15/month) is the right choice if you need email collection and want to remove branding. Best for creators building a mailing list from their bio link.
Premium ($35/month) only makes sense if you sell $400+/month through Linktree commerce. Below that, the subscription costs more than the fee savings.
Skip Linktree entirely if you sell live sessions, coaching calls, or workshops. You will end up paying for three separate tools when a single platform handles everything.
The Bottom Line
Linktree costs between $0 and $35 per month for the subscription. But the real monthly cost depends on what you are using it for.
For sharing links, the free plan is genuinely great. For selling digital products at volume, Premium's 0% transaction fee can save you money. For selling live services, the tool stack you need around Linktree (video, scheduling, client management) pushes the real cost well above the sticker price.
Before picking a plan, calculate your expected sales volume and factor in transaction fees. And if you are selling your time through paid sessions, compare the total cost of Linktree plus add-ons against platforms that include everything in one place.
