Short.io figures verified on Tseny Bitly. Ours come from the same place the payment page reads.
Pick a difference, read it
Six places where Za.gl and Short.io behave differently, with the number from the table beside each one.
A domain, assumed
Short.io gives free accounts 1,000 branded links and 50,000 tracked clicks a month across 5 custom domains, which is a lot. It also assumes the part that costs money elsewhere is the domain, and that you already own one and can point its DNS. Without that, the links are demo links. Za.gl starts from the opposite side: the shared domain is the product, and there is nothing to configure.
