Create your URLViral link →What is an editable short link?
An editable short link separates the URL you share on social media from the destination it opens. You can replace an out-of-stock product URL later from your dashboard without changing the short URL already published in your Pins, Reels, or descriptions.
Direct vs. Smart deep-link modes
Direct mode sends visitors toward the saved HTTPS destination immediately and attempts to launch the Amazon shopping app where supported. Smart mode displays a branded intermediate choice page with an Open in Amazon App button and a web fallback button.
How to create and test an editable link
1. Create a free account and sign in to your dashboard. 2. Paste your full HTTPS destination URL, including your valid Amazon Associates tag. 3. Choose a custom slug and select Direct or Smart routing. 4. Test the short link on both iOS and Android before publishing.
Affiliate disclosure and platform rules
Always follow Amazon Associates Operating Policies and disclose affiliate relationships clearly near your shared links. URLViral is an independent routing tool and cannot guarantee Amazon app opening, cookie attribution, or commissions.
App opening, click attribution and Amazon affiliate commissions are not guaranteed. Always test links and follow the policies of Amazon and the platform where you share them.
