Introduction to Pxl

A URL shortener built with serverless technology to help you grow, without the looming concern of downtime or click limits.

How do I use Pxl?

The Pxl service has lots of helpful features to help you market and connect with your audience. In its simplest form Pxl allows you to shorten any URL.

This can be done through our Chrome extension or in the dashboard after sign-up.

How does Pxl work?

The service works by transforming any long, complicated URL into a shorter, more readable link. When a user clicks the shortened version, they are redirected to the destination URL.

How is Pxl different from Bitly?

Our service allows users to build custom retargeting audiences on third-party websites through the use of pixels.

How does Pxl differ from other products?

Many short URL services experience outages and have monthly usage limits. When your links go down, so does customer trust. We built Pxl with the latest serverless tech to provide unparalleled uptime and unlimited usage.

Do you have a referral or affiliate program?

If you have an audience who you think would love Pxl you can sign-up for our affiliate program.

Do you support deep links?

While Pxl does not support deep links in the traditional sense, it does support Universal Links for iOS and App Links for Android. Universal links are a new standard where regular URLs redirect to an app without needing a platform-specific URL scheme.
