Comparison
homu vs Linktree
Linktree made the link in bio mainstream. homu starts from the same idea — one short link at homu.to/yourname — and adds the things visitors usually leave your page to do: order, book, tip and back a goal.
The short version
If you only need a tidy list of links, both tools will do the job. Linktree is a familiar, polished choice with a large user base and plenty of integrations.
homu is built for people whose link in bio is also where business happens. Instead of sending visitors off to a separate shop, scheduling app or donation page, you add blocks that let them finish the action right on your page — and homu charges 0% platform fee on what you sell.
Where homu is different
- Checkout on the page: menu and product blocks with a cart, card payments through your own Stripe account, or “pay in person” orders that land in your dashboard.
- Bookings built in: services with their own prices, opening hours, slot lengths, blocked dates and optional prepayment.
- Tips and funding goals: quick tip amounts with a thank-you message, or a goal with a progress bar and contributor list.
- Multilingual pages: on Pro, visitors can read your page in their own language with AI translation.
- Board posts and private feedback: share updates people can comment on, and collect messages from visitors.
- Analytics that include sales: page views, link clicks, visitor countries and order statistics in one dashboard.
Fees: what to check
Fees are where link in bio tools differ most, and they change over time. Linktree lists seller fees on some of its plans when you sell through it, so check their current pricing if selling is part of your plan.
On homu, the platform fee on orders and bookings is 0% on every plan. The Free plan includes up to 5 menu sales and 5 bookings so you can test the flow; Pro unlocks unlimited sales and bookings, still at 0%. You only pay your payment provider's normal processing fees.
When Linktree may suit you better
If your page is purely a set of links to other platforms, and you rely on specific apps from Linktree's integration library, staying where you are may be the simplest choice. homu focuses on doing a handful of business jobs really well on the page itself, rather than on offering the biggest possible app catalog.
Switching takes a few minutes
Claim homu.to/yourname, add a profile block and a links block, and paste in the links you already use. Then add the blocks that replace your extra tools — a booking block instead of a separate scheduler, a tip block instead of a donation link. Update the link in your Instagram, TikTok or YouTube bio and you're live. Every page also comes with a QR code for print and in-person use.
