Interstitial page

What this is

Show visitors a short message and countdown before redirecting them to the destination. Useful for disclaimers or branded transitions.

Before you start

• Interstitial redirect must be available on your plan.
• You have a link open on the Settings tab.

Steps

1. Open a link's Settings tab.
2. Find Redirect screen and turn on Show redirect screen.
3. Set Page title (optional — uses the destination title if blank).
4. Add a Message for visitors to read.
5. Set the Countdown duration in seconds.
6. Click Save changes.

What happens next

Visitors see your message and countdown on the short link URL, then are automatically redirected.

Tips

• Keep messages short and clear.
• A countdown of 3–5 seconds works well for most use cases.
• For a launch that should stop redirecting, use Drop mode instead of a countdown screen.
