Rebrandly is built around custom branded domains — that is its whole pitch. It works well, but the entry paid plan is more expensive than ClickDash and lacks file sharing.

Why teams switch to ClickDash

Less than half the entry paid price

Rebrandly Starter is $13/mo billed yearly; ClickDash Hobby is $5/mo. Both let you add a custom domain on paid plans, with comparable analytics.

File sharing in the same workflow

Rebrandly is link-only. With ClickDash you can shorten links and host files (PDFs, ZIPs, assets) under the same custom domain and the same dashboard.

No per-link cap on the free tier

Rebrandly free is capped at 500 links lifetime. ClickDash free is 500 links per month — useful if you generate a lot of short-lived campaign links.

Where Rebrandly still has the edge

Honest call-outs — pick the tool that fits your priorities, not the one with the loudest pitch.

Domain marketplace built in

Rebrandly lets you buy a branded short domain directly inside the product. ClickDash assumes you already own (or buy elsewhere) a domain to point at us.

More mature link-team features

Rebrandly has bulk operations, link approval workflows, and team roles tuned for larger marketing teams.

FAQ

Switching from Rebrandly to ClickDash

Common questions about migrating from Rebrandly.

01Can I keep my Rebrandly custom domain?
Yes. Add the domain in ClickDash, update its CNAME, and verify.
02Will my old Rebrandly short links keep working?
They keep working as long as your Rebrandly subscription is active. Plan a cutover before cancelling.
03Can I import 1,000+ Rebrandly links at once?
Yes — CSV import handles bulk uploads. Custom slugs preserve where they don't collide.
04Does ClickDash do branded domain QR codes like Rebrandly?
Yes. Once your custom domain is set up, all QR codes use that domain in the encoded URL.
05Why is ClickDash so much cheaper than Rebrandly?
We are smaller, leaner on infrastructure, and our entry tier is genuinely an entry tier — not a stripped-down lead-gen tier.
