Getting started

DropLink creates shareable checkout links for your Shopify store. A buyer who clicks your link lands in a pre-filled Shopify checkout — products, quantities, subscription plans, and discounts already applied. No storefront page required.

1. Create your first link

From the DropLink dashboard in your Shopify admin, click Create link.

  • Title — an internal name (e.g. "Summer sale Instagram"). Buyers never see it.
  • Products — pick from your store with the native product picker.
  • Selling plan — if the product has subscription plans, choose one and the link checks the buyer out as a subscriber. This works on every plan, including Free — it's the thing Shopify's own cart permalinks can't do.
  • Discount code (Starter+) — auto-applied at checkout.
  • UTM parameters (Starter+) — attached to the checkout for your analytics.
  • Order note (Starter+) — appears on the resulting Shopify order.

You'll get a short URL like https://go.zerglo.com/abc1234 and a downloadable QR code.

2. Share it anywhere

The short link works wherever you can paste text: Instagram bios, email campaigns, SMS, YouTube descriptions, podcast show notes — or print the QR code on packaging, flyers, and event signage.

3. Track what happens

Every click is recorded (with the visitor's IP hashed, never stored raw). The Analytics page shows clicks and unique visitors per link; on Starter and above, orders are attributed back to the exact link that drove them, with revenue totals and conversion rates.

Link statuses

Status Behavior
Active Redirects buyers and records clicks
Paused Returns a branded "link not found" page; data preserved
Archived Same as paused; hidden from the default dashboard view

Pausing or archiving never deletes your analytics history.
