Do short links expire?
Short links are meant for long-term use, but we can't promise they will work forever. f.bi only redirects and keeps no copy of the page. If the page is moved or deleted, the link will lead to a missing page.
Are there any usage limits?
Creating links here is free, with rate limits in place to prevent abuse. If you hit the limit, wait a moment and try again.
Are short links safe to open?
