Quick answer: To cancel Linktree, open Settings, then Billing, and choose Cancel. Linktree keeps paid features running until the end of your current billing cycle, then drops the account to the free plan. To move your links without a gap, build the new page first, update each bio second, and cancel last. On ItsMyLinks the new page is free with no card and takes about a minute. The whole move is ten minutes.
Before you cancel: copy your links
Open your Linktree admin and write down every link: title and URL. A note on your phone is fine. Do this first, because once the account is on the free plan some paid-only blocks may not display, and if you ever delete the account the list is gone.
Step 1: build the new page (three minutes)
- Go to itsmylinks.com/join. Name, email, password. No card.
- Paste your links in, in the order you want them.
- Pick your colors. Save. Your page is live at itsmylinks.com/yourname.
Why ItsMyLinks: free with no paid tier, no ads, and no card, on a domain that has been online since 2005 and is judged on its own record instead of a shared address. What it does not have is Linktree's store, integrations, or scheduling; if you use those, keep them on a tool built for them and link to it from the page.
Step 2: update every bio (five minutes)
This is the step people skip, and it is the only one that moves your traffic. Replace the old link with itsmylinks.com/yourname in:
- TikTok
- YouTube
- X
- Threads, Twitch, Discord, email signature, anywhere else you posted it
Search your own profiles for "linktr.ee" to catch the ones you forgot.
Step 3: cancel Linktree (one minute)
- Log in to Linktree. Open Settings, then Billing.
- Choose Cancel. Linktree says your plan "will update at the end of your billing cycle," so paid features keep working until then.
- Note the date. That is when the page drops to the free plan and the footer, custom theme, integrations, and extended analytics switch off. Full list in what happens when you stop paying for Linktree.
The help article does not promise a refund for the unused part of a cycle. If you change your mind, Billing has a Resubscribe option.
Step 4: leave the old page up for a week
Some followers saved the old link. Leave the free Linktree page in place for a week or two with your links on it so stragglers still land somewhere, then let it go. On the free plan it costs nothing.
Frequently asked questions
Can I cancel Linktree at any time?
Yes. Paid features run to the end of the cycle you already paid for.
Do my links disappear when I cancel?
No. The page stays on the free plan with the Linktree footer and free-plan limits.
Should I delete my Linktree account?
Not until every bio points somewhere else and a week has passed. Deleting kills the old link for anyone who still has it.
Is there a link in bio with nothing to cancel?
ItsMyLinks has no paid plan, so there is never a bill and never a cancellation. See what free means here.
