SellFlow vs Linktree
Linktree is the original link-in-bio page: a directory of links, with commerce added on top through its own shop features and third-party integrations.
Linktree solved the "one link" problem, and it solved it so well that its name became the category. If what you need is a tidy, well-designed page that points people at your other pages, it is a very hard product to beat and this comparison will not pretend otherwise.
SellFlow is answering a different question. It assumes the reason you want a link in bio is that people are already asking you for prices in your DMs, and that what you actually need is a storefront with products, variants, stock, a checkout, and a way to tell the buyer their order shipped. The bio link is the front door to that, not the product itself.
So the real decision is not which page looks better. It is whether the link in your bio is a menu or a shop.

| SellFlow | Linktree | |
|---|---|---|
| What you get on the free plan | A hosted storefront on sellflow.bio, up to 2 products, unlimited orders, and 0% transaction fee. No card, no expiry. | Free tier available. Selling features and the number of links available depend on the plan — see their pricing page for current limits. |
| Cut taken per sale | 0% on every plan, including free. You are never charged a percentage of what you sell. | Linktree charges for its plans and applies fees to some of its monetization features. Check their pricing page for the current figures. |
| How buyers order | A checkout page on your storefront. No buyer account, no app install — name, contact and address, done. | Depends on the route: its own shop and payment features, or a hand-off to an integrated store such as Shopify or Gumroad. |
| Order follow-up | Order status updates go to the buyer on WhatsApp from your own number, pre-filled from the order. | Built around click-through to other platforms rather than a per-order conversation with the buyer. |
| What you sell | Physical products with variants and stock, digital downloads, and services with appointment or inquiry leads. | Links, embeds, tips and digital products, plus whatever the integrated store handles. |
| Where you run it | A mobile seller app. Add products, take photos and manage orders from the phone you already sell from. | Web dashboard, with a companion mobile app. |
| Your own domain | Included on the Business plan, connected to your storefront. | Offered on paid plans. |
| Currency and tax | Sell in your own currency with configurable VAT/GST. Built for sellers outside the US as a default, not an afterthought. | Payouts and supported currencies depend on the payment provider connected. |
Pick SellFlow if…
- You are taking orders in DMs and re-typing them into a notes app.
- You need real product records: variants, stock counts, prices in your currency.
- You want the buyer to get a WhatsApp message when their order ships, from your number.
- You do not want a percentage of each sale going anywhere.
Pick Linktree if…
- Your bio link is genuinely a menu — a podcast, a newsletter, three social profiles and a Shopify store that already works.
- You want the largest template and integration library in the category.
- You are not selling directly at all, and monetize through sponsorship or platform payouts.
We would rather you land on the right tool than churn off ours in a month.
Questions people ask
Is SellFlow a free Linktree alternative?
Yes. SellFlow has a free plan with no card required and no expiry: a hosted storefront on sellflow.bio, up to 2 products, unlimited orders and no transaction fee. Paid plans lift the product limit and add customization, digital products and a custom domain.
Can I move my links from Linktree to SellFlow?
There is no automatic import. A SellFlow profile is a stream of blocks — links, products, text — that you add in the mobile app, so rebuilding a typical link page takes a few minutes. Your Linktree URL keeps working while you do it.
Does SellFlow take a percentage of my sales like some link-in-bio tools?
No. SellFlow charges a flat plan price and 0% of your sales on every plan, including the free one. Whatever your buyer pays you is yours, minus whatever your own payment method charges.
Which is better for selling on Instagram?
If you are pointing followers at an existing store, Linktree is a clean way to do it. If the sale needs to happen inside the link itself — pick a variant, check out, get a WhatsApp confirmation — that is what SellFlow is built for.
