Long links,woven short.

Short tinyurl.et links that open the right app on every phone, count every click, and never change once they're made.

Free, no account. One link per visitor, valid for 30 days.

From long link to measured click in three steps.

  1. 1

    Paste

    Drop in any long link: a product page, a receipt, a form, a video.

  2. 2

    Share

    Copy the short link or its QR code. Print it, post it, send it by SMS.

  3. 3

    Measure

    See clicks by day, device, country and source. Bots are left out.

Built for how Ethiopia shares links.

Shops and creators

One link in your bio, on your poster and in your Telegram channel. Phones open your app, computers open your site.

tinyurl.et/selam-shop

Banks and fintech

Shorten every receipt link before the SMS goes out, straight from your core system through the API.

Publishers

Turn each new article title into a readable link, in bulk, the moment it's published.

One link. The right door on every phone.

Add an App Store link, a Play Store link or an app deep link. iPhones go one way, Android phones another, computers to your website. One link to print, one link to share.

Example link.

Everything a short link should do.

Click analytics
Daily clicks, devices, operating systems, countries and sources for every link.
Your own alias
tinyurl.et/your-shop instead of random letters, or a link made from a post title.
QR codes
Every link comes with a QR code you can download for print.
API and templates
Create links from your systems, one at a time or 100 per request.
Safe by default
Links can't be edited, phishing domains are blocked, and link previews aren't counted as clicks.
Pay in birr
Monthly plans through Chapa: Telebirr, CBE Birr or card. No dollar card needed.

Once woven, a link never changes.

A link on a printed receipt, a poster at Bole or an SMS sent to ten thousand people has to mean the same thing tomorrow. So nobody can edit a tinyurl.et link after it's made, not you, not us, not someone who guessed your password. If a link is wrong, you switch it off and make a new one.

Short links from your own systems.

Register a template once, then send just the reference. Every receipt, statement or article gets its own short link, with your metadata attached for reconciliation.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes, for one link at a time, valid for 30 days, with no account. Plans add permanent links, aliases, analytics and the API.

Can I change a link after creating it?

No. Links are permanent once created, so a printed or sent link always means the same thing. You can switch a link off and make a new one.

How does the phone routing work?

When someone opens the link we check their device: iPhones go to your iPhone link, Android phones to your Android link, everyone else to your website.

What happens when my plan ends?

Your links keep working. Creating new links and using the API pauses until you renew.

Your first short link is one paste away.
