What is Rellio?
Rellio is a free URL shortener. It folds a long address into a seven-character link, draws a QR code in SVG or PNG, and counts every open. Guests can shorten ten links an hour without an account.
Short links that keep count.
Rellio is a free URL shortener: paste any long address and get a seven-character link plus a print-ready QR code in one step. Every open and referrer is counted automatically, whether you shorten as a guest or from your account.
Every link in one workspace.
Click any row below to inspect its referrer breakdown, destination address, and active counter.
Built for links in public.
Every short link includes redirect counting, referrer classification, downloadable QR codes, and full lifecycle control in the dashboard.
Seven-character short codes.
Long campaign URLs fold into a clean seven-character code that fits on receipts, packaging, slide decks, and SMS messages.
Guest mode or full workspace.
Create up to 10 links per hour right from the front page without an account, or sign in for 20 links per hour, search, bulk actions, and CSV export.
Referrer channels built in.
Every redirect increments the counter and buckets the source into Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, X, Telegram, search engines, or direct traffic.
Editable links and expiry.
Point an existing code to a new destination URL, schedule it to expire after 1, 7, 30, or 90 days, or delete it so it stops resolving immediately.
The part you cannot edit.
A poster goes to the printer and stays on the wall. Rellio keeps the destination address editable behind the short code and QR, so the paper never has to change.

Do I need an account to shorten a link?
No. Guests create up to ten links per hour from the front page. An account raises the limit to twenty per hour and adds a dashboard with search, editing, deletion, filters, and CSV export.
Is Rellio free?
Yes. There is no paid plan at launch: shorten links, download QR codes, and read the counters without paying. The only limits are the hourly creation caps.
How do I shorten a URL with Rellio?
Paste the address into the field on the home page and press Shorten link. The seven-character link, a copy button, and the QR studio appear beside the form. Sign in first if you want the link saved to your dashboard.
How long does a short link stay alive?
By default a link never expires. If you set a 1, 7, 30, or 90 day window when you create it, the code stops resolving after that date and returns a 410 page instead of the destination.
Can I change the destination after printing the QR code?
Yes, for links saved to an account. Edit the destination in the dashboard and the printed code keeps working, because Rellio answers with a 302 redirect and reads the current destination on every open.
What do the analytics count?
One counter per open, plus the referrer channel: direct, search, Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, X, Telegram, or other. Rellio stores aggregate counts, uses no tracking pixels, and sets no advertising cookies.
Are the QR codes free and print-ready?
Yes. Every short link can produce a PNG for screens or an SVG that scales to any print size, generated in the browser without a watermark or an account.
Start with one link.
Shorten a link above in guest mode, or open the dashboard to keep your links organized, inspect referrer sources, edit destinations, and export CSV reports.
