How to Migrate from Linktree to QR-Verse (Step-by-Step)

If you are ready to move off Linktree, the migration takes under ten minutes. This guide walks through the exact steps to recreate your Linktree page as a QR-Verse multi-link page - and shows you what you gain in the process: a scannable QR code your Linktree page never had, zero commission on any sales, and EU-hosted analytics that track which links your audience actually taps.

Before You Start: What You Need

• Your current Linktree page open in one browser tab (you will copy your links from it)
• A QR-Verse account - create one free at /create
• 10 minutes

You do not need to cancel Linktree before migrating. The safe approach is to run both in parallel for 2-4 weeks while your audience transitions, then cancel Linktree once your new QR-Verse URL is established in your social profiles.

Step 1: Export Your Linktree Links

Open your Linktree admin dashboard. Go to Links. Note down every link you have active:

• The link title (what text the button shows)
• The destination URL (where the button points)
• The order (which links appear first)

You can screenshot your Linktree page or use the admin panel directly. The goal is to have all your current links and their destinations ready to recreate.

Linktree does not provide a link export function, so this is a manual step. For most users with 5-10 links, it takes two minutes.

Step 2: Create Your QR-Verse Multi-Link Page

Go to QR-Verse Create and select Multi-Link from the QR code type options.

You will see a page builder with:

• A link title field
• A destination URL field
• An "Add row" button to add more links
• Page appearance settings (colors, logo)

Add your links in the same order as your Linktree page - or use this moment to improve the order. If you have been on Linktree's free plan, you have had no per-link analytics. You have been guessing which links your audience taps most. After migration, QR-Verse per-link analytics will show you the actual data.

A good default order for most bio link pages:

1. Your primary destination (website, latest video, shop, main platform)
2. Secondary platform (second social, streaming profile)
3. Newsletter or mailing list (audience you own directly)
4. Any additional links in descending priority

Step 3: Set Your Brand Appearance

QR-Verse's free plan includes basic customization. QR-Verse Pro (EUR 4.99/mo) adds:

• Logo upload
• Full color customization for your page and buttons
• Watermark removal (the free plan shows "Powered by QR-Verse")

If you currently have Linktree Pro or Premium for branding features, QR-Verse Pro at EUR 4.99/month gives you equivalent branding at roughly one-third the cost.

For most users, spending 2-3 minutes on brand colors and a logo makes the page look noticeably more professional than the default - both on Linktree and QR-Verse.

Step 4: Download Your QR Code

This is the step that does not exist in Linktree.

When your multi-link page is set up, QR-Verse generates a scannable QR code pointing to your page automatically. Download it in:

• SVG format for print materials (lossless at any size)
• PNG format for digital use (social posts, presentations, email)

This QR code is dynamic - which means you can update the links behind it at any time from your dashboard. Anything you print with this code will always point to your current live links.

For print specifications and minimum scan sizes, the multi-link QR code guide covers sizing for business cards, posters, and packaging.

Step 5: Update Your Social Profiles

Your QR-Verse multi-link page has a URL. Paste that URL into:

• Instagram bio
• TikTok bio
• Twitter/X bio
• YouTube channel description
• Any other social profile currently pointing to Linktree

This is the key step that migrates your audience. Once your social bio links point to your QR-Verse page, all new visitors go directly to QR-Verse. Your Linktree page remains live and accessible via its old URL during the transition period.

Do not rush this step. If you have a large following on one platform, update that platform first and monitor your QR-Verse analytics for a few days before updating the others. You will immediately see scans and clicks arriving in your QR-Verse dashboard confirming the migration is working.

Step 6: Run Both in Parallel (2-4 Weeks)

Do not cancel Linktree immediately. Followers who have bookmarked your Linktree URL directly - rather than accessing it through your Instagram bio - will continue reaching your Linktree page for as long as it is live. Cancelling immediately risks losing these visitors before they have time to find your new URL through your updated bio link.

The recommended transition window is 2-4 weeks:

• Week 1-2: Update all social profiles to your QR-Verse URL. Watch analytics on both platforms.
• Week 3-4: If QR-Verse traffic is healthy and growing, cancel Linktree.

After cancellation, your linktr.ee/yourname URL goes offline. If you have any printed materials with that URL, they will stop working. This is actually an argument for the QR code approach: the QR code points to your domain-agnostic QR-Verse page, not a platform-specific URL, so if you ever switch again, the QR code remains valid as long as you keep your QR-Verse page active.

What You Gain by Switching

Beyond recreating the same functionality at lower cost, the migration gives you two things Linktree never provided:

A QR code for physical materials. Your Instagram bio link is only useful to people who are already viewing your Instagram profile on their phone. A QR code on a business card, poster, merchandise, or physical product reaches anyone who encounters those materials in the physical world - no Instagram profile visit required. The QR code instead of Linktree guide explains this advantage in detail.

Zero commission on all plans. If you sell anything through your bio link page - digital products, merchandise, services, or tips - Linktree's free plan takes 12% of every transaction processed natively. QR-Verse takes 0% on all plans. If you earn $500/month through your bio link, that is $60/month (or $720/year) you stop paying to Linktree the moment you switch.

The Linktree pricing analysis breaks down the full commission math across all Linktree plans.

Common Questions During Migration

What happens to people who saved my Linktree URL?

They continue reaching your Linktree page for as long as your account is active. Once you cancel, that URL goes offline. The transition window exists precisely to minimize this impact - most followers access your bio link through your social profile link, which you update in Step 5.

Can I keep my Linktree and QR-Verse running simultaneously?

Yes, indefinitely if you want. Many users run both during a transition and then cancel Linktree after 30 days. There is no technical conflict between the two tools.

Will my QR code break if I cancel Linktree?

No - your QR-Verse QR code points to your QR-Verse multi-link page, not to Linktree. Linktree cancellation has zero effect on your QR-Verse code. The only thing that breaks when you cancel Linktree is your linktr.ee/yourname URL.

Do I need to reprint materials with Linktree URLs?

Not immediately - keep those materials in circulation until you replace them naturally. When you do replace them, use your QR-Verse QR code (SVG format for print) instead of a URL. The code is scannable and does not expose a platform-specific URL that breaks if you ever switch tools again.

After Migration: What to Optimize

Once your QR-Verse page is live and traffic is flowing, per-link analytics shows you exactly which links your audience taps. This data is available on QR-Verse Pro (EUR 4.99/month) - something Linktree's free plan never provided.

Use it to:

• Move your most-clicked link to the top position
• Remove links nobody taps (reducing page noise)
• Track seasonal patterns - which links perform during campaigns vs normal traffic
• Compare QR code scans (physical traffic) with total page visits (social traffic)

The dynamic vs static QR codes guide explains how to use your dynamic QR code to run link experiments without reprinting - change the page, keep the code, watch the analytics shift.
