Deeplinkly is the developer-friendly Branch.io alternative for app teams that need reliable deep linking, deferred deep linking, and campaign attribution — with same-day integration, a free plan to start, and transparent pricing that doesn't require a sales call to understand.
Built for mobile developers and growth teams evaluating Branch.io alternatives.
Short answer
Deeplinkly is a deep linking and attribution platform for teams that find Branch.io too expensive or too heavy. It covers the same core ground — deep links, deferred deep linking, branded domains, and campaign attribution — with published, self-serve pricing: 25,000 attributed installs free as a one-time allowance, then from $0.006 per attributed install with no monthly fee, versus Branch requiring a quote. It suits indie developers and small teams; Branch remains the stronger fit for enterprises needing its full ad-network integration catalogue.

Deeplinkly gives app teams the core infrastructure for mobile growth: links, attribution, and analytics — all in one platform.
Deeplinkly's SDK is lean and the integration guide is designed for engineers, not implementation consultants. Most teams connect their iOS and Android apps, configure their custom domain, and go live with deep linking and attribution in under a day.
Branch.io pricing is negotiated enterprise-style and not publicly listed. Deeplinkly publishes every plan and every price on our website. You know exactly what you're paying before you start, and you can scale up or down without a sales conversation.
Route new users to the right in-app screen after they install from the App Store or Play Store. Deeplinkly passes link context through the install flow so that a user who clicks your campaign link and installs your app lands exactly where you intended.
Measure the source of every install across paid, organic, influencer, email, QR, SMS, and social channels. Attribute in-app events to campaigns, track cost-per-install by channel, and understand which acquisition sources produce your best users.
Every Deeplinkly plan includes at least one custom domain with automatic SSL. Your deep links live on your domain, not a third-party subdomain — improving brand trust, click-through rates, and the overall experience of sharing links.
Deeplinkly's documentation is written for engineers by engineers. Every SDK method is documented with code examples in Swift, Kotlin, Dart (Flutter), JavaScript (React Native), and REST. No waiting for a customer success manager to explain the API.

Branch.io is a capable deep linking and attribution platform, but many mobile teams — especially startups, scale-ups, and lean growth teams — run into the same friction points: pricing that isn't publicly available, onboarding that requires dedicated support, and a platform complexity that exceeds what a small team actually needs. Teams searching for a Branch alternative typically want the same core functionality — deep links, deferred deep links, attribution — with simpler setup, clearer pricing, and faster time to value.
Deeplinkly covers every core use case Branch offers: deep linking across iOS, Android, Flutter, and React Native; deferred deep linking for new user onboarding; campaign attribution and analytics; custom branded domains; and QR code generation. The difference is in the implementation experience: Deeplinkly is designed to integrate in hours rather than weeks, with documentation that engineers can follow without assistance and pricing that product managers can evaluate without a procurement process.
Opaque pricing isn't just a budgeting inconvenience — it changes how teams use the product. When the cost of deep links is unclear, engineering teams avoid creating links they don't need, marketers don't experiment with link-based campaigns as freely, and finance teams hesitate to approve scaling. Deeplinkly's published, predictable pricing means your whole team can use the platform without worrying about surprise invoices. Start on the free plan, upgrade when you need to, and always know exactly what you're paying.
Migration from Branch to Deeplinkly typically takes two to five days. The process involves setting up your Deeplinkly project and custom domain, replacing the Branch SDK with the Deeplinkly SDK in your iOS and Android apps, and recreating your campaign link templates. For teams with a large volume of existing Branch short links, Deeplinkly can configure redirect rules so that old links continue to resolve during the transition period. Our migration guide provides platform-specific code examples and a checklist to validate the integration before you go live.
