Your links carry your brand, so we've made both your account and your links safer. This update adds two-step verification, passkeys, session management, real-time link safety checks and better control over your domains.

🔐 Two-step verification & passkeys

Protect your sign-in with:

• Two-step verification using any authenticator app, plus 10 recovery codes in case you lose your phone
• Passkeys: sign in with Face ID, Touch ID or Windows Hello, with no password to type

Where to find it: Account → Security

💻 Session management & sign-in alerts

• See every device you're signed in on, and sign out of any of them or all other devices at once
• Get an email and an in-app notification when someone signs in from a new device
• Changing your password signs out your other sessions automatically

Where to find it: Account → Security

🛡️ Real-time link safety

Every destination is now checked when you save a link, then scanned again in the background. Checks cover Bio Link page links, A/B test variants, traffic routing rules and deep links, and they catch phishing and hidden redirects. If something on your Bio Link page is hidden for safety, the editor shows you which item and why.

This keeps your branded domains' reputation clean, so your audience can trust every link you share.

🌐 Domain auto-renewal

For domains you've bought through Replug:

• An auto-renew switch
• Expiry warnings two months ahead of time
• Renew via checkout for lifetime-deal plans

Where to find it: Custom Domains

🔧 Improvements & fixes

• Faster redirects: click tracking never slows down a redirect, so your links stay fast even when one goes viral
• If a link can't be checked for a moment, visitors see a "try again" page instead of a false "link not found"
• Changing a custom domain's address updates all of its links automatically
• Team member permissions now apply to QR codes
• Zapier keeps working when two-step verification is on
• Developer apps now accept several redirect URLs, with live validation
• Updating your payment card works reliably again
• Hardened account and workspace security

That wraps up this series! Thanks for using Replug. Have an idea for what we should build next? Share it on our feedback board. 💙

Replug customers are all over the world, and now Replug speaks your language and shows prices in your currency.

🌍 Replug in 13 languages

The dashboard, emails, in-app notifications and API messages are now available in 13 languages:

English, Español, Français, Deutsch, Italiano, Português, Русский, العربية (with a full right-to-left layout), Nederlands, Türkçe, Bahasa Indonesia, ไทย and Bahasa Melayu.

If you sign up from replug.io in your language, the app opens in that language automatically.

Where to find it: Account → Profile → Language

💶 Prices in your local currency

Plans are now shown in EUR across the eurozone and GBP in the UK. In many countries, Essentials and Scale are offered at lower regional prices. You'll see your local price in the app, during onboarding and on replug.io/pricing.

✉️ Redesigned emails

We've redesigned every Replug email. They look right in Gmail, Outlook and on mobile, and they arrive in your language. White-label accounts no longer get a Replug footer.

🖥️ A refreshed replug.io

Our website has a new look, with animated product scenes and a short homepage film, and it's now available in all 13 languages with local-currency pricing.

🔧 Improvements & fixes

Coming next week: new account security options and real-time link safety. Stay tuned! 🚀

We've rebuilt Replug from the ground up. There's a cleaner, faster dashboard, ready-made templates for Bio Links and QR codes, and new Bio Link blocks that help you grow your audience. Here's everything that's new.

✨ An all-new dashboard

The whole app has been redesigned to be cleaner and faster:

• Collapsible sidebar keeps every section one click away, or folds away when you need room
• New Home page with KPI tiles showing the change vs the previous period, sparklines and a clicks-over-time chart
• Restyled link editor and campaign setup with a cleaner layout
• Grouped, searchable settings so you can find any option quickly
• Redesigned onboarding and sign-in

🌙 Dark mode

Replug now comes in Light, Dark or System themes. Charts, empty states and illustrations all follow the theme you pick. QR codes and Bio Link previews keep their true colors, so what you see is what your audience gets.

Where to find it: sidebar account menu → Appearance

🔔 Notification center

The new bell in the sidebar tells you what needs attention before it costs you clicks:

• A custom domain isn't connected yet, or has stopped pointing to Replug
• A link that's getting clicks is broken
• You've used 80% of your monthly clicks, or reached your click or link limit
• Security events, such as a sign-in from a new device
• A teammate joins your workspace
• Your trial is about to end

On your phone it opens as a bottom sheet.

✅ Bulk link actions

Managing hundreds of links is now much faster. Select links in the Links table (shift-click to select a range; tick a whole page to select all matching links). Then use the floating action bar to:

• Turn links on or off
• Add or remove tags, and create a new tag right from the dialog
• Archive or delete
• Copy the short links you've selected

↕️ Sort by performance

Click the Clicks, Unique Clicks or QR Scans column header to sort the Links table, and sort Campaigns by links, clicks or QR scans the same way. Your best performers are always one click away.

🎨 Bio Link templates

Start a new Bio Link page from 27 templates in 8 categories: Creators, Music, Business, Shops, Events, Agencies, Nonprofit and Personal. Every template has a live preview, so you see the result before you pick it. You can change everything afterwards.

We've also added gradient backgrounds to 13 of the theme presets.

Where to find it: Bio Links → Create new

👥 Team templates

Built a page layout you love? Save it as your organization's template and reuse it for every new client or brand (up to 50 templates). You can also apply a saved template's look to an existing page.

Where to find it: Bio editor header → Save as template; then pick it under Your templates in the gallery

Available on: Scale and Agency plans

🔳 QR code templates & a rebuilt QR builder

Pick from 24 ready-made QR designs in 7 categories: Business cards, Restaurants & menus, Events, Retail & products, Social, Wi-Fi & places, and Marketing & print. The QR builder has also been rebuilt:

• Steps stay open, so you can see every option at once
• Content-type tiles for choosing what your QR code opens
• Quick color palettes
• A sticky live preview that updates as you design

Where to find it: QR Codes → Create new

🔤 Custom fonts for Bio Links

Choose from 18 Google Fonts, or upload your own font (WOFF2, WOFF, TTF or OTF, up to 2 MB) so your page uses your brand's typeface.

Where to find it: Bio editor → Branding → Font

Available on: Google Fonts on all plans; uploading your own font on Essentials and above

🖼️ Link thumbnails & featured links

Make important links stand out on your Bio Link page:

• Icon: Replug matches a brand icon to the link's URL automatically
• Image: add your own thumbnail
• Feature this link: show it as a large card with its image as the cover

Where to find it: Bio editor → Links block → link options

📬 Subscribe block: collect emails & phone numbers

Turn visitors into subscribers. The new Subscribe block collects email addresses and/or phone numbers, and sends email sign-ups straight to your tools:

• Mailchimp, Kit, MailerLite, Brevo, ActiveCampaign, GetResponse, AWeber, Constant Contact, Campaign Monitor, Moosend and Gist
• Or any webhook, such as Zapier (phone-only sign-ups go to your webhook)

Every sign-up is also saved in a Subscribers list, with retry if a sync fails and CSV export. A new Sign-ups card shows up in your analytics.

Where to find it: Bio editor → Connect & convert → Subscribe

Available on: paid plans

🎵 Music block

Paste a Spotify, Apple Music, Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud or YouTube Music link and visitors get a playable player right on your page. Plays are counted in your analytics.

📊 Clicks per link

See how every link and block on your Bio Link page performs: clicks, unique clickers and CTR, including video and music plays and the sign-up rate of your Subscribe block.

Where to find it: Bio Links analytics → Clicks per link

⏰ Schedule individual links

Schedule a single link inside a block to show from and/or hide after a date and time. It's ideal for product drops, sales and event tickets. Links that haven't gone live yet never reach visitors, and scheduled items now appear exactly on time.

Where to find it: Bio editor → Links block → Schedule this link

Available on: Essentials and above

🔞 Content warnings & age checks

Ask visitors to confirm before they see a whole page or a single link:

• Sensitive: a "Sensitive content" screen visitors confirm with Continue
• Age check: 18+, 21+ or 25+

Pages with an age check are also marked as adult content for search engines.

Where to find it: Bio editor → Settings → Sensitive content; per link: Content warning
