Why use short links?
Long links are awkward to share on Facebook, TikTok, WhatsApp and Viber, hard to read aloud, and impossible to fit on a poster or visiting card. A short link is clean, trustworthy-looking and easy to remember — and with a QR code, anyone can open it by pointing their phone camera. For shops, events, schools and small businesses in Nepal, a short link plus QR is a simple way to send people to your menu, form, location or catalogue.
Click tracking
Every link counts how many times it has been opened. Create your links while logged in to keep them in your account and check their click counts whenever you like — useful for seeing which poster, post or campaign is working.
Fair use
Please only shorten links you’re allowed to share. Links must use http or https, and we limit how many can be created in a short time to prevent spam and abuse. See our privacy policy.
Frequently asked questions
What is a URL shortener?
It turns a long web address into a short, tidy link (like toolspasal.com/s/abc123) that redirects to the original page. Short links are easier to share, type, print and post on social media.
Can I choose my own custom link?
Yes. Tap 'Add custom alias' and pick your own ending, e.g. toolspasal.com/s/my-event — as long as it isn't already taken.
Do the links expire?
No, links stay active. If you're logged in, you can see all the links you've made along with how many times each has been clicked.
Can I track clicks?
Yes. Every short link counts how many times it has been opened. Log in before creating links to keep them in your account and view their click counts any time.
Is there a QR code?
Yes. Each short link comes with a downloadable QR code — handy for posters, flyers, visiting cards and shop displays.
