Your own URL shortener and short-link SaaS, in Hindi and English
SHORTxtra turns long addresses into short links on your own domain, with QR codes, Bio pages and live analytics. Run it for one business and its team, or as a SaaS where every customer signs up, picks a plan and gets a workspace of their own.
One edition, one licence per installation, plain PHP on ordinary cPanel hosting with MySQL or MariaDB and one cron line. No Composer, no Node.js, no monthly fee per link or click.
Short links that do more
Random six-letter addresses without look-alike characters, or your own alias (Hindi letters too), on the site's domain or on your customers' own short domains such as go.brand.in.
Every option per link: 301, 302 or 307, a password, start and end dates, a click limit, query forwarding, UTM tags, campaigns, tags and the social share card.
Smart destinations: rules by country, device, language, time or returning visitor, A/B rotation with a winner and app deep links for Android and iPhone.
Marketing tools: Meta, Google, LinkedIn, TikTok and other pixels with a consent text, splash pages and overlays, and conversions by postback with the click id.
Bulk shortening of 1,000 addresses at once, import from Bitly, YOURLS, Shlink, Kutt or any CSV, Excel or JSON file with a dry run, and exports of links, campaigns and tags.
History of every change with undo, a bin for 30 days, and a deleted address kept reserved for 90 days.
QR codes and Bio pages
Dynamic QR codes you print once and point elsewhere later, and static codes for UPI payments, Wi-Fi, contact cards, text, phone, SMS and locations.
A live designer with colours, dot and eye shapes, a logo and a frame; it refuses a design phones cannot read. SVG, PNG and a poster to print.
Bio pages for Instagram and WhatsApp profiles: links, buttons, social icons, videos, text and a contact or newsletter form, built in a phone frame.
Analytics you can trust
Clicks by day and hour, countries, Indian states and cities, devices, browsers, languages, referrers and campaigns, with a live view and a dashboard ticker.
Link previews of WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram and X, search crawlers and scripts are counted apart and never as clicks.
Unique visitors without a tracking cookie and, by default, without storing IP addresses; each click is counted exactly once.
Public statistics pages, weekly and monthly e-mail reports, printable reports, insights on broken destinations, ending links and the best time to share.
Safe links, teams and the SaaS side
Every new destination is checked first: your own lists, look-alike brand names, risky file types and endings, and optionally Google Web Risk and URLhaus. Visitors can report a link; held links wait for a review.
Own short domains with DNS steps for GoDaddy, Hostinger, BigRock and Cloudflare, automatic checks, and a cPanel alias with AutoSSL by API token.
Workspaces with owner, admin, editor and analyst roles, invitations by e-mail and a workspace switcher.
Plans with limits and features, payments through PayU, PhonePe, PayPal or manual UPI with GST invoices, trials, renewals, overrides and add-ons.
A REST API with workspace keys and scopes, signed webhooks with retries, a bookmarklet and a share target for the installed app.
Fast on shared hosting
Measured with 100,000 links and 2,000,000 clicks: a redirect in 16 ms for the slowest 5 % one at a time and 33 ms with 8 at once (246 a second), a cached lookup in under 0.1 ms.
Clicks are written to a small file first and counted every minute, so a redirect never waits for the database; cached links keep working while the database is down.
Its own home page, light and dark themes, a command palette with shortcuts, a buyer guide in Hindi and English inside the app, and a live demo mode with sample clicks.

Changelog
v1.0.1current02 Nov 2026
SHORTxtra 1.0.1.
Two faults of 1.0.0 are fixed.
Every page of the user panel (dashboard, links, QR codes, Bio pages, analytics, domains, settings) answered the web server's 403 Forbidden on Apache and LiteSpeed hosting: the app folder's own rules closed it before the address reached the app. The folder is now closed only when the rewrite module is missing, and scripts in it are refused in any case; the nginx example no longer closes the panel either.
Admin, Import and export, Short links: the export as CSV, Excel or JSON stopped with an error. It now holds the links of every workspace.
Update from Admin, Updates with one click; nothing else changes.

FAQ
Can I use my own short domain?
Yes. The site's own domain is the first short domain, and every workspace can add its own (go.brand.in) as its plan allows. The domain page shows the DNS records for GoDaddy, Hostinger, BigRock and Cloudflare and checks them by itself.
Does it run on shared hosting?
Yes. Ordinary cPanel hosting with PHP 8.1 or newer, a MySQL or MariaDB database and one cron line every minute. Clicks are counted by that cron line, so a redirect never waits for the database.
Can I sell short links as a service?
Yes. In the SaaS setup every account gets its own workspace and picks a plan with limits and features; customers pay by PayU, PhonePe, PayPal or manual UPI on your own merchant accounts, with GST invoices.
Are WhatsApp and Facebook previews counted as clicks?
No. Link previews, search crawlers, scripts and browser prefetches are counted apart as bots. Unique visitors are counted without a tracking cookie, and by default no IP address is stored.
Will my QR codes keep working if the address changes?
Yes, dynamic QR codes point to a short link: print them once and change the destination later. The designer refuses designs that phones cannot read.
How are bad links stopped?
Every new destination is checked against your own lists, look-alike brand names and risky endings; Google Web Risk and URLhaus can be switched on with keys of your own. Visitors can report a link, and held links wait for a review.
Can I move my links from Bitly or YOURLS?
Yes. Import reads the exports of Bitly, YOURLS, Shlink and Kutt or any CSV, Excel or JSON file, after a dry run of every row, and keeps the old click totals.
Is there an API?
Yes. A REST API with workspace keys and scopes, signed webhooks with retries, a bookmarklet and a share target for the installed app.
