Skip the swipe. Get straight to the click.

It depends on your content. Cards look nice but add friction. Fans have to swipe to find links. A single page with all links visible performs better for most creators because fans can tap what they want immediately.

Tap.bio's free plan gives you 1 card, which is basically useless for most creators. Silver is $5/month for 3 cards. Gold is $12/month for unlimited cards and analytics. That's $60-$144 per year just to have a functional link page. Links gives you unlimited links and full analytics for free. You also get smart deep links and shield protection without paying anything. Zero dollars per year, forever.

Yes. Create a free Links account, add the same URLs you had on your Tap.bio cards, and update your Instagram bio with your new Links URL. Takes about 2 minutes. You can keep both pages live during the transition to compare performance. Most creators find that the single-page layout in Links converts better than Tap.bio's card system because fans don't have to swipe around to find what they need. Everything is visible immediately.

No. Tap.bio doesn't block crawlers or protect your account from suspicious traffic that can trigger Instagram's spam detection. Links has built-in shield protection that filters out bots before they can cause problems. Crawlers scan bio links constantly, and some of them look suspicious to Instagram. Shield protection blocks those risky crawlers automatically, which helps keep your account safe and your reach stable. It's one less thing to worry about.
