A dynamic link is a short link whose destination you can change after you have shared it. The short URL stays fixed, and the address behind it updates whenever you edit it. That means one durable link can point at a launch page today, a signup form next week, and a support article after that, all without reprinting anything or asking people to update a URL. On Flyn you can change a short link's destination as often as you like on every plan, Free included: open the link, edit the destination, and the change is live instantly, while the short URL, its QR code and its click history stay the same.
How to Change Where a Short Link Goes After Sharing or Printing It
Watch on YouTubeTranscript
Here's how to change where a short link goes after you've shared it, in Flyn: This is the link. Right now it opens a page about summer, and its QR code is already printed on a poster.
Step one. Go to Links in the sidebar, and click the link, or hover over its row and click the pencil icon. The Link Details panel opens on the right.
Step two. In the General section, click into Destination URL and replace it with the new page. Paste the full address, including https:// at the start, because Flyn won't add it for you. Leave Custom Slug alone. That's the short link itself. Change it, and anything you've already printed or posted stops working for new visitors.
Step three. A green Save button has appeared at the top of the panel. Click it. If you close the panel without saving, nothing changes.
Step four. You'll see Link updated in the corner, and the new address now shows under the short link. Same short link, and it opens the new page. The change is live on the very next click.
Now the poster. Nothing reprinted. Scan the same QR code, and it opens the new page, because the QR code holds the short link, not the destination. Scroll down the panel and it's the same QR code as before.
And the click count carried on from where it was. Nothing reset. One thing: this works for links in your Flyn account. A link made on the homepage without signing in can't be edited. Sign up or sign in from the same browser within 24 hours of making it, and it moves into your account. Otherwise, it expires and is deleted.
Everything you just saw is on the Free plan. If you want different countries or devices to go to different pages from the same link, that's routing, and it's on Pro: twelve dollars a month, or nine dollars a month billed annually. The written guide with screenshots is linked in the description.
How it works
Up and running in minutes
Create your short link
Shorten any URL and share it however you like: in a post, on a flyer, or inside a QR code. From this point on the short link itself never has to change again.
Open the link and edit its destination
Find the link in your dashboard and change the destination URL. Fix a typo, swap a dead page for a live one, or point it at an entirely different address. The short link and any QR code stay exactly as they are.
Save, and the change goes live instantly
The moment you save, the new destination is served to everyone who clicks. There is no delay, no re-share, and nothing for your audience to update on their end.
Repeat whenever it makes sense
Repoint the same link as often as you need. One link can carry a seasonal campaign, a rotating offer, or content that keeps evolving, while the URL you printed stays permanent.
Why it matters
What you get
Fix a link after you have shared it
Point at the wrong page or share a URL that later goes dead? Edit the destination once and every existing click starts landing in the right place, including on links you sent out weeks ago.
Repoint a printed QR code
The QR code encodes the short link, not the destination. Change where the link goes and the same printed code, sticker, or flyer now leads somewhere new, with no reprint required.
Run seasonal and scheduled swaps
Keep one link on a table tent, a business card, or a product label and change what it opens for each season, sale, or event. The physical asset stays put while the destination rotates.
One durable link for evolving content
Share one link that stays the same for a resource that keeps changing: the current menu, the latest pricing, this month's guide. Update the target and the link always points at the newest version.
Changes take effect instantly
Editing a destination is live the second you save. There is no propagation wait and no cache to clear, so a wrong link is corrected in the time it takes to type the new URL.
Your click history stays with the link
Repointing a link does not reset its stats. Clicks keep accruing to the same link across every destination it has carried, so you can see total performance in one place over time.

Frequently asked questions
Does changing the destination change the short link?
No. The short URL stays exactly the same. Only the destination behind it changes, which is the whole point: anything you have already shared, printed, or embedded keeps working while it now leads somewhere new.
Do I have to reprint my QR code when I repoint a link?
No. A QR code generated from a Flyn link encodes the short link, not the destination. Because the short link never changes, the printed code keeps scanning correctly and simply opens the new destination you set.
How fast does the new destination take effect?
Instantly. As soon as you save the edit, every subsequent click and scan is sent to the updated destination. There is no delay for your audience and nothing for them to refresh.
Is editing destinations a paid feature?
No. Every Flyn short link is editable on every plan, including Free. Free covers 25 links per month with editable destinations, custom slugs, QR codes, and link expiration. Pro adds unlimited links, advanced analytics, and more from $9 per month billed annually, or $249 lifetime. A link made on a Flyn tool page without an account has to be claimed into a free account before you can edit it.
Will I lose my click analytics if I change the destination?
No. Repointing a link keeps its existing click history intact. Clicks continue to accumulate on the same link across each destination it points to, so your totals and trends stay in one place.
Can I change the same link more than once?
Yes. There is no limit on how often you can edit a destination. Repoint the same link as many times as you need, which makes it ideal for one long-lived QR code or printed link that has to cover many campaigns over time.
