iFood Link Shortener

Yes. Flyn uses a standard 301/302 redirect and passes the full query string through untouched, so the utm_medium=share tag the iFood app adds when you share your store arrives exactly as you pasted it. The same goes for any utm_source or utm_campaign you add yourself to tell one post apart from another. Nothing is stripped, reordered, or replaced with a tag of ours.

Use your own store page, the address that reads www.ifood.com.br/delivery/ then your city and state, then your store and neighborhood slug, then a long ID. You can copy it straight from the browser address bar with your store open, or use the share button in the iFood app, which hands you the same link with utm_medium=share on the end. Paste the whole thing into Flyn, parameters included, and share the short link you get back.

Flyn sends the visitor to the exact ifood.com.br address you shortened, and iFood's own app handling takes over from there, so on a phone with the app installed it behaves the same way the raw link does. Flyn does not add or block any deep-linking of its own. On a phone without the app, it opens your store in the mobile browser as usual. Either way the customer lands on your menu.

Yes, and that is the main reason to bother shortening at all. Make a separate Flyn link for each place you post: one for the Instagram bio, one for the WhatsApp status, one for the flyer in the delivery bag. Each link keeps its own real-time click count on the free plan, and Pro splits those clicks by country, device, browser, and referrer. After a week or two you can see which channel is really sending people to your menu.

No. A Flyn link's destination is editable at any time and the short link itself never changes, so you paste the new iFood address once and everywhere you already shared it keeps working. That covers a slug that changed after a rename, a move to a new address, or a second unit taking over the deliveries. Your Instagram bio, your WhatsApp status, and every printed sticker stay correct.

Yes. When you open a single item on iFood the address picks up an extra parameter, prato for a restaurant dish or item for a market product, and Flyn keeps that parameter intact through the redirect. So your store page followed by ?prato= plus the dish ID still lands the customer on that exact item. It fits nicely in a story about one combo or a WhatsApp broadcast about a single promo.

Yes, on Flyn Pro at $9 per month, which lets you connect up to 3 custom branded domains. Your menu link can then read like pedido.suapizzaria.com.br/cardapio instead of a generic short link, which looks far more credible in a bio. Branded links keep the same analytics, QR code, and editable destination as any other Flyn link. The free plan uses the shared flyn.to domain.

Every Flyn link comes with a built-in QR code on the free plan. Because the QR points at your short link rather than straight at iFood, you can change where it goes later without reprinting a single sticker. Put it on delivery bags, a shop window, or the bottom of a receipt, and those scans show up in the same click analytics as taps. It is a cheap way to move walk-in customers onto ordering from you again later.

Shortening changes only what the link looks like: the customer still lands on your genuine iFood store page with every parameter attached. iFood's own partner guidance tells restaurants to copy their store address and share it on Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp, and a short link is simply a tidier way of doing that. Keep pointing the link at your real store page and follow iFood's partner terms for how you advertise.

A raw iFood store URL runs past ninety characters and ends in a long random ID, so it looks broken in an Instagram bio and gets awkwardly wrapped in a WhatsApp status. A short, readable link is easier to trust, easier to read out on a video, and easier to fit on a printed flyer. You also get click analytics, an editable destination, and a QR code, none of which a raw URL gives you. Every destination is scanned with Google Safe Browsing before the link goes live.

Those links belong to a single order or a single session and stop working once it is over, so shortening them rarely pays off. If you are an influencer organising a group order, shorten the store link instead and post the ordering instructions next to it, because the store link stays valid forever. Send the temporary iFood link only to the people already in that order. Anything meant for a bio or a pinned post should point at the store page.

iFood is a Brazil-only platform today, running on ifood.com.br after it wound down its Colombian operation in 2022, so there are no country-specific iFood domains to juggle. Flyn shortens an ifood.com.br link the same way no matter where you are, and the analytics still show which countries your clicks come from. If you ever need visitors from different countries to land on different pages, geo-routing is available on Pro.

No. Flyn is a full URL shortener that works with any link: iFood, your own website, YouTube, Etsy, affiliate links, PDFs, anything with a URL. This page just shows the iFood use case. Every feature here (click analytics, editable destinations, branded domains, QR codes) applies to every link you shorten.
