Where a short link helps

Common questions

Is Kort free?

Yes. Every link is free. Random 5-character links and codes you choose yourself (6 to 20 characters) have no end date. The shortest codes (2, 3 or 4 characters) are free for a while at a time, so everyone gets a turn.

What happens when a short code ends?

The link stops working. Anyone who opens it sees a page saying it has ended, and when the code is free again. The code then rests for a while. After that, anyone can claim it.

How do I get my own short code?

Log in with Google, then open Find a short code. Type the code you want to see if it's free, then claim it. Codes of 2, 3 or 4 characters are free for a while. Codes of 6 to 20 characters have no end date. Codes use 33 letters and numbers. We leave out o, i and l because they look like 0 and 1, so a typed o counts as 0, and i or l counts as 1.
