LINKTREE VS GIB: THE BEST LINK IN BIO FOR CRYPTO CREATORS
Linktree is great for traditional creators, but crypto users need more. Compare features and see why Web3 creators are switching to GIB.
Why Traditional Link Pages Don't Work for Crypto
If you're in crypto, you've probably tried using Linktree or a similar link-in-bio tool. And you've probably run into the same frustrations everyone else has:
- No wallet support. You end up pasting wallet addresses in your bio or creating separate links for each chain.
- No QR codes. Someone wants to send you crypto at a conference? Good luck getting them to copy a 42-character address from their phone.
- No referral organization. Your exchange referral codes are buried somewhere in your notes app.
Linktree was built for influencers linking to their YouTube and TikTok. It wasn't built for people who need to share Ethereum addresses, Bitcoin wallets, and Solana referral links.
That's why we built GIB.

FAQ
Can I import my existing Linktree links to GIB?
Not automatically, but setup takes under 5 minutes. Most users find adding their links fresh is faster than dealing with imports anyway.
Does GIB work on mobile?
Yes. Your gib.page looks great on mobile, and the QR codes are designed for mobile scanning.
What can I do on the free plan?
Add 2 wallet addresses (ETH and SOL) with auto-generated QR codes, 1 social link, and basic page view analytics. It's a solid starting point.
What chains does GIB support?
14+ chains including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Avalanche, BNB Chain, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Tron, Monero, and USDC. Pro unlocks all chains.
How does GIB make money?
Through our Pro plan at $9/month. The free tier is genuinely free with no catches - we just limit the number of wallets and features.
The Bottom Line
Linktree is a good tool. But it's not built for crypto.
If you're sharing wallet addresses and need QR codes, GIB's free plan already beats Linktree. If you want referral links, funding goals, and full customization, Pro is $9/month.
