What is Minilink?

Minilink is a Danish URL shortening service that makes long web addresses short and easy to share. You can use it without an account, and all links get a short and easy format via mnlk.dk (e.g https://mnlk.dk/abcde).

Minilink is built to be fast, simple and privacy-friendly – ​​without intrusive ads and without cookies or third-party tracking.

We focus on security, so there is a page you land on before you get to the page the link redirects to. This is so you can check the domain, or report it before you are sent further.

On the page you can check click statistics, analyze web addresses for hyperlinks or whether they are safe. We also have dev api, so you can create links automatically from your own website.
