klipo .link
Use cases

Where klipo.link really makes a difference

Six concrete situations, with the features that apply and an example for each.

Local shops and restaurants Agencies and campaign managers Public organizations, municipalities and non-profits Content creators and social media Product and SaaS teams Events, trade shows and ticketing

Local shops and restaurants

A poster, storefront or paper menu doesn't get reprinted every time a promotion changes. The link has to stay the same, but point somewhere different depending on the season.

  • A readable, memorable alias, for example klipo.link/summer-menu
  • A QR code you can download as SVG or PNG, ready for print
  • The destination can be changed at any time from the dashboard, without touching the code that's already printed
Example

A restaurant prints a QR code on its tables just once. In December it points to the holiday menu, in June to the patio menu — without changing a single sign.

Agencies and campaign managers

The same campaign runs across several channels — newsletter, social media, print — and you need to be able to say which one actually drove clicks before the next client meeting.

  • Tags to group links by client or by campaign
  • Detailed stats by source, country and device
  • Team access so several people can work on the same links
  • A CSV or PDF export ready to attach to a client report
Example

An agency creates a separate link for the newsletter and for Instagram, both pointing to the same destination page. The end-of-month report shows at a glance that Instagram drove twice as many clicks.

Public organizations, municipalities and non-profits

A citizen communication — a public consultation, a notice, an awareness campaign — has an end date known in advance, and the organization needs to be able to show where its data is hosted. Under Law 25, Quebec's access-to-information commission (the CAI) can impose administrative monetary penalties of up to $10 million or 2% of worldwide revenue, and penal sanctions of up to $25 million or 4% of the previous fiscal year's worldwide revenue — whichever amount is higher in each case.

  • Data hosted in Quebec, rather than with a provider subject to a foreign jurisdiction
  • An expiration date set at creation: the link stops working on its own, with no manual follow-up
  • Team access to share link management between several employees
Example

A municipality publishes a link to a public consultation survey with an expiration date set for the day after the deadline. Nobody has to remember to disable it.

Content creators and social media

An Instagram or TikTok profile only allows one clickable link in the bio, but what that link needs to point to changes with every announcement, launch or collaboration.

  • The link's destination can be changed at any time, the link shown in the bio stays the same
  • A custom alias that stays consistent with your personal brand
  • Live click stats to see what's working
Example

A creator has kept the same bio link for a year. It pointed to her latest YouTube video last week; it points to her new product today.

Product and SaaS teams

A transactional email or notification needs to send a user to the App Store on iPhone, the Play Store on Android, or a web page depending on their language — without multiplying the links to manage.

  • Conditional redirect rules based on the visitor's device, country or language
  • A REST API with revocable tokens to create and manage links from your own product
  • Stats accessible through the API to integrate into your own dashboards
Example

A mobile app sends the same short link to all its users by email. Klipo redirects each one to the right app store based on the device that clicked.

Events, trade shows and ticketing

A booth, a sign or an invitation card points to a registration or schedule page, but that link has no reason to exist once the event is over.

  • An automatic expiration date: the link stops working without anyone having to think about it again
  • A print-ready QR code, reusable across all physical signage
  • Live stats to adjust promotion during the event
Example

A trade show prints its QR code on invitation cards two months in advance. The link expires automatically the day after the event.

Your situation isn't listed here?

klipo.link is still a general-purpose URL shortener: custom aliases, QR codes and stats apply to any link, not just the six situations above.
