A creator store, media kit and booking page
Pillar puts the storefront, the media kit and the calendar behind one link, and the media kit updates itself from connected accounts rather than waiting for somebody to rebuild a PDF. Digital products, bookings and invoices are all sold from the same page. The seller fee on the entry plan is the thing to check against what you expect to sell.
Our note
Work out the seller fee before choosing the cheap plan. Past about $1,400 of monthly sales the 5 percent on Creator costs more than the jump to Entrepreneur, and the media kit gets better at the same time.

Branded short links on your own domain
Rebrandly shortens a link onto a domain you own, so what gets shared carries your name rather than a shortener's. Around that sit click analytics, QR codes, link galleries and the ability to change where an old link points. The free plan is ten links a month, which is a taste rather than a tool.
Our note
Rebrandly is the pick when the branded domain matters more than the analytics. Short.io gives more away at the bottom of its range, so compare the two on how many links you really create each month.
