Tag Docket vs Linkly
Linkly and Tag Docket are built for the same buyer: agencies that want one record of every campaign link. Both price by client. The difference is seats: Linkly caps them below its top plan, and Tag Docket never does.

Which one fits
Choose Linkly if
- You want short links on your own branded domains.
- You want white-label client reporting (Growth and Agency).
Choose Tag Docket if
- Your team is bigger than a plan’s seat cap and you don’t want to move up a tier just to add people.
- You want lowercase and approved values enforced with no way to switch them off.
- You print QR codes and need to move where they go without the tagging changing.
Questions
How is Tag Docket’s pricing different from Linkly’s?
Both charge by number of clients. Linkly caps seats on its Pro and Growth plans; every Tag Docket plan has unlimited seats and unlimited links.
Does Tag Docket support branded short domains like Linkly?
No. Tag Docket short codes live on tgd.li, our own short domain. If your own domain on short links is a requirement, Linkly offers custom domains from its Pro plan.
Who owns the link history?
In Tag Docket, the client does. Export is always available and always free, and a client who moves agencies takes their history with them.
Linkly is a trademark of its owner. Their plans and features change; check uselinkly.com for the current details.
