Free Twitch URL Shortener
Create clean short links for your Twitch streams and channels, or shorten external links for your channel bio, about section, and live chat.
Twitch URLs get long fast with complex clip IDs, timestamp parameters, and VOD identifiers, looking unprofessional when shared on social media. At the same time, pasting long external sponsor, donation, or social links clutters your channel bio, chat, and about section. ShortifyMe cleans up both.
Whether you are promoting your stream or clip across Twitter, Discord, and other social media or sharing sponsor, product, and donation links directly with your viewers in live chat, or channel bio, our free Twitch URL shortener gives you clean, short links. Turn any long URL into a short, trustworthy redirect that looks professional, fits character limits, and makes it easy for your viewers to find your content on and off Twitch.

Why Shorten Twitch and External Links?
Whether you are sharing your Twitch links or using links in Twitch chats or bio, clean URLs help your content look more trustworthy and perform better across all channels.
Why Shorten Twitch Links
Why Shorten Links to Use in Twitch streams, bio, and chats
Using clean short links directly on your Twitch channel helps keep your entire layout highly organized. Long, messy sponsor, social media, and donation URLs look cluttered in your bio panels and live chat, often discouraging viewers from clicking them. By shortening these external links into clean, trustworthy links, you build instant visual trust and maximize click-through rates. These optimized URLs fit cleanly in your channel bio, chat, or about section below the stream while easily bypassing automated chat filters that block complex tracking strings.
Why Shorter Links Perform Better
Cross-Platform Streamer Branding
Use the same branded short links across your website, Twitter, Discord, and other social media to direct viewers back to your Twitch channel. Simultaneously, branding your external sponsor, merchandise, or affiliate links within your Twitch bio panels establishes consistent credibility that builds direct trust with your audience.
Easy Sharing Everywhere
Turn long Twitch clips and stream links into clean short URLs that fit perfectly in social posts and messages. At the same time, keep your live chat and about section completely uncluttered by transforming long external resources or donation links into clean URLs. Easier to share, more likely to be clicked.
Track Every Engagement
Track exactly which social posts or external platforms generate the most live stream viewers. At the same time, monitor which of your shortened sponsor links get the most clicks from your Twitch bio panels, about sections, or chat. Use custom back-halves to track different campaigns or content types.
