What's an event?
Hosting is priced by events per month — one number that covers everything billable on your platform. The simpler we keep it, the easier you can predict your bill.
What counts
Every one of these adds 1 event to your monthly count:
- Page views — anyone (you, your users, the public) loading a page on your dashboard or marketing surface.
- Short-link redirects — every time one of your short links resolves and forwards a visitor.
- Link creation — when you or one of your users creates a new short link.
- QR design creation — when you or one of your users saves a new QR design.
- Signups — every time a new user signs up under your platform (your tenant signups, not the platform-level Linked.Codes signup).
- File uploads — logo uploads, OG image uploads, anything we store for you.
- Payments — every successful checkout one of your users pays through your Stripe (we count the event, you keep 100% of the money).
Counts roll up at the business owner level. If you have sub-users on your platform, their activity counts against your cap — they're using your hosting, not their own.
What doesn't count
- Failed page loads (404s, blocked bots, rate-limited requests).
- Webhooks Stripe sends to you (those are inputs, not paid actions).
- Background jobs we run on your behalf (DNS checks, TLS renewals, sitemap updates).
- The very first signup of a new account — you don't pay to onboard.
The ladder
| Tier | Events / month | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Solo | 20k | $20/mo |
| Growing | 50k | $40/mo |
| Brand | 150k | $80/mo |
| Scale | 450k | $160/mo |
Price doubles each step. Events grow ×2.5 then ×3 from Brand up — bigger steps cost less per event.
Auto-scale
Cross your cap and we auto-bump you to the next tier on the same Stripe subscription. No new checkout, no service interruption — Stripe handles the proration so you only pay the difference for the rest of the cycle.
You can scale back down any time from your account billing page. If you hit the cap again next month, we'll bump you again.
Fair use
Events past your cap that we couldn't auto-scale (top tier reached, payment failure, scale-down + spike) get a 7-day grace window. After grace, new event creation pauses until your next monthly reset OR you upgrade. Existing pages, short links and analytics keep working — you just can't create new things until you're back under cap.
