Custom Social Previews

Make every link you share look designed, not dumped. With Custom Social Previews, your short links post as a polished, branded card — with your own title, description, and image — instead of a bare URL that nobody clicks.

The link still forwards visitors to your destination exactly as normal. You're just controlling the first impression.

Why it matters

  • Custom title & description

    Write the headline and blurb that appear when your link is shared on social platforms and messaging apps. Say what the link is — and why someone should tap it — in your own words.

  • Custom image

    Add a branded image so your link shows up as a full visual card. Your logo, your product shot, your campaign art — front and center in every feed and chat.

  • Higher click-through

    A designed card earns far more clicks than a naked URL. Same link, same destination — a much stronger reason to tap.

Add a social preview

  1. Create or edit a link from the dashboard (New Link, or open an existing link).
  2. Open the social preview section and set your title, description, and image.
  3. Preview the card to see how it will look when shared, and adjust the copy or image until it feels right.
  4. Save. From now on, anywhere that link is shared, it posts as your branded card — while visitors are still forwarded to your destination as usual.

Pick the right image

For the best-looking card across platforms, use a wide image — around 1200 × 630 pixels (a roughly 1.9:1 ratio). Keep important text and your logo near the center so nothing gets cropped, and use a high-resolution file so it stays crisp on large screens.
