One handle,
two things to use.

Opening in order from October 2026.

Do not cancel, and the handle stays yours. Forever.

One payment a year. Keep renewing and creator.ly never resells or reassigns it.

Pricing

The shorter the handle,
the fewer of them exist.

Most names are free. You pay only for short or in-demand handles — billed yearly, and renewing keeps your price.
Early access is 50% off — and every renewal stays at that price.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is creator.ly?

creator.ly is a link-in-bio page built on the creator.ly domain. You claim one handle and get both a public page at creator.ly/name and a matching email at name@creator.ly. Build the page from blocks in minutes. When you want to earn from it, creator tools are there — one-time digital products such as ebooks and courses, and monthly or annual subscriptions — with checkout and payouts included.

How are the handle and the email assigned?

When you join early access you request a handle. That handle reserves both the creator.ly/name page address and the name@creator.ly email address. Each handle belongs to exactly one creator, and handles are confirmed in the order early access requests are received.

Do I have to move to a new mailbox?

Email starts at the Named tier. Everyone shares the creator.ly domain, so opening it on the free tier would attract spam senders and push every creator's mail into junk — that is why it is a paid feature. Once you have it there is no new mailbox to move to: mail to name@creator.ly lands in the inbox you already use, and you can send from that address too.

How much does a handle cost?

Your price is set by the handle you choose, and it is billed once a year — there is no monthly plan. Standard handles — 8 or more characters that aren't a common word — are free. Named handles (common category and status words — coach, studio, marketing, famous — at any length) are $129/year, Premium 5-character handles are $259/year, Rare 4-character handles are $450/year, and Signature handles of 2–3 characters are $1,300/year. Handles start at 2 characters for now — single-character handles will be released separately at a later date. Early access: 50% off year one, launch price locked on renewal.

Why is there no monthly plan?

A handle is not a month-to-month rental. Billing yearly is what lets creator.ly promise that your address and email stay reserved for you, and it keeps the price low enough that a handle costs less than most people spend on a domain and a mailbox separately.

How long do I keep my handle?

As long as you keep renewing each year, the handle is yours indefinitely. creator.ly never resells or reassigns an active creator's handle, and your renewal price does not go up as demand for short handles grows. If you cancel, the handle stays reserved until the end of the year you paid for, plus a 90-day grace period, before it returns to the pool.

How do creator payouts work?

Creator payouts begin when the storefront opens from October 2026, and the schedule will be published with it. Payouts are operated by creator.ly with its payment partners and are unrelated to Paddle.

When can I actually start using it?

Profile link, digital product sales and AI product pages open in October 2026. Recurring subscriptions and the subscription dashboard open in November 2026. Subscriber management and broadcast messaging open in December 2026. Early access members are notified as each one opens.

Do I need a registered business to sell?

No. Individuals can start selling without registering a business. You only need to add a payout account. If your revenue passes the threshold where registration is required in your country, we let you know.

Who processes payments on creator.ly?

Yearly handle subscriptions are processed by Paddle, our merchant of record. Paddle handles the checkout, billing, taxes and receipts for your handle plan, and their Buyer Terms apply to that purchase.

Creator storefront sales — digital products and subscriptions, opening from October 2026 — are a separate, upcoming feature. Those transactions will be processed through dedicated payment partners under their own terms. They do not run through Paddle, and creator.ly is not a payment service provider.

What are the sales fees?

Handle subscriptions are the only thing charged today. When the creator storefront opens from October 2026, a platform fee will apply to what you sell and the rates will be published before that feature goes live. Selling nothing means paying nothing beyond your yearly handle price. Payment processing for creator sales is provided by our licensed payment partners, separate from the Paddle checkout used for handle subscriptions.

Can I move over from another link-in-bio service?

Not at launch. A migration tool that imports your block layout from another service — along with CSV upload for an existing subscriber list — is planned as a later addition, and early access members are notified when it opens. Until then you rebuild your blocks in the editor, which takes about five minutes.
