ToneDen Is Shutting Down: Where to Move Your Links

ToneDen's standalone platform at toneden.io shuts down on December 1, 2026. On that day your smart links stop working and your account data is deleted, and November 30 is the last day to request a copy of it. Accounts connected to Eventbrite are not affected.

If you're looking for a ToneDen alternative, this post covers what stops working, what to save before the deadline, and where to move each kind of link.

When is ToneDen shutting down, and what stops working?

According to ToneDen's shutdown FAQ, everyone with a toneden.io account is affected, whether they sign in with Facebook, Google or email.

What stops on December 1:

• Every ToneDen link: FanLinks, pre-save links, TourLinks, EventLinks, PodLinks, StreamLinks, BigLinks, GiveLinks and links on custom domains. Pre-saves for releases after December 1 won't work.
• Social unlocks and contests.
• Ad automation: budget optimization, switching ads between active and paused, and Playbook campaigns such as Spotify Growth and Instagram Growth. Your campaigns themselves keep running and spending in your Meta and Google accounts until you pause them.
• Zapier connections and API access.

ToneDen says there is no direct replacement. If your ToneDen account is connected to Eventbrite, it isn't affected: it stays available at eb.toneden.io and in Eventbrite's Marketing tools. A standalone toneden.io account can't be moved to Eventbrite.

What to do before November 30

1. Request your data export. Open the ToneDen Privacy Portal, enter your account email under "Download your data", click "Request Export", then use the secure link ToneDen emails to that address. The export includes your account and profile details, your campaign and smart link data, and the fan contacts collected through smart links, pre-saves, social unlocks and contests. On an Eventbrite-connected account, go to your profile icon, Admin Settings, then Advanced Settings: a JSON file downloads automatically.
2. List every link and where it's shared: your social bios and link-in-bio page, your website and email signature, active ads and email campaigns, printed QR codes, posters and merch.
3. Pause your campaigns or set end dates in Meta Ads Manager and Google Ads. ToneDen never held your ad budget, but an active campaign keeps spending until you stop it.
4. End any contest that runs past December 1, and pick your winners before then.
5. Remove ToneDen's access to your ad accounts: in Business Integrations in your Facebook settings, and in Third-party apps and services in your Google Account security settings.
6. Plan the DNS change if your links run on a custom domain.

There's nothing to do for billing: all subscriptions are cancelled and prorated refunds are issued automatically on December 1, and they take 5 to 10 business days to arrive.

Fan contacts you already exported to other tools stay there, and you stay responsible for them under privacy laws.

What happens to your old ToneDen links?

They all stop working on December 1. ToneDen hasn't announced any redirect, and the tools offering a move say the same: Unsleeve says old fanlink.tv links don't redirect automatically, and Feature.fm says links on ToneDen's own domains have no redirect after December 1.

So every place a link is shared needs a new one: bios, your website, email signatures, ads, QR codes and merch.

The one exception is a domain you own. If your ToneDen links ran on your own domain, you can point it somewhere else by updating or removing the DNS records that point to ToneDen, at your domain registrar.

Which ToneDen job do you need to replace?

ToneDen did several jobs, and no single tool here replaces all of them. Here's where each one can go:

Sources: Feature.fm pricing, Unsleeve pricing, the Paage music guide and the Paage block list.

A dash means we couldn't confirm the feature on the vendor's own pages, not that it's missing. Feature.fm's tour and event links route fans to tickets; Paage sells the tickets on your page. Fan emails collected on Feature.fm sync to Mailchimp and ActiveCampaign.

Your ad campaigns aren't in this table because they live in your own Meta and Google Ads accounts: you keep managing them there.

Paage: your release links, bio link, merch and tickets on one page

A smart link sends fans to your music. Paage is the page that link points to, with your release, your merch, your tickets and your email sign-up on it, so a fan who came to stream can also buy, book and subscribe.

Your music. In My Paage, choose + Add block, then Music, pick your platform and paste a link to a track, an album or a playlist. Paage then looks for your music on other platforms and offers to add them. One block can hold several platforms, or each platform can sit on its own, and a shared playlist plays right on the page. The Paage Spotify link in bio shows how it looks.

Pre-saves. Pre-saves are live on Paage, including on the Free plan, and you set them up in the link-in-bio module:

• They work with all streaming services, such as Spotify, Apple Music and Deezer.
• Fans get a notification on release day.
• The pre-save captures the fan's email.
• Fans can opt in once to get all your future releases.

Everything else on the same page: merch, event tickets, digital products, tips and an email sign-up. From the Plus plan, Paage also supports a custom domain.

Paage covers the page your links point to and your pre-saves. ToneDen's contests, social unlocks and ad automation are different jobs, and Feature.fm handles contests.

It's free to start; paid sales carry a platform fee of 9% on the Free plan and 1% on Pro, with a $0.50 minimum.

How to rebuild your ToneDen links on Paage

1. Export your ToneDen data from the Privacy Portal before November 30.
2. List your priority links: your current release, any link in an active ad, your bio link and any printed QR code.
3. Create your page with Paage's link in bio.
4. Set up a pre-save in the link-in-bio module for any release coming out after December 1, since ToneDen pre-saves stop working that day.
5. Add a Music block with your release: Paage finds your other platforms for you.
6. Add merch, tickets and an email sign-up (see below).
7. Replace the old links everywhere: your Instagram bio, your TikTok bio, your website, email signature, ads, QR codes and merch. If you use your own domain, you can connect it to Paage from the Plus plan.

Sell merch, tickets and collect emails from the same page as your music

• Merch: sell from your shop with native print-on-demand through Printful or Printiverse, with no stock and no shipping to handle.
• Tickets: Paage events let fans register and pay on your page, with free, RSVP and paid events side by side, several ticket types, capacity limits, promo codes, merch sold with the ticket, recurring events, email and SMS reminders, a QR code on every ticket and QR check-in.
• Tips: add a tips block for fans who want to support you directly.
• Your fan list: add an email sign-up block. Every visit, sale or booking becomes a contact automatically in your audience, ready for your next email with Paage's email marketing.

That last part matters. In Paage's own data, adopting an email list is the strongest signal that a Paage user goes on to pay for a plan: a 7.5× lift. It's a signal about Paage users, not artists' revenue. Paage is used by 200k+ creators.

Which one should you pick?

• You want your music, merch, tickets and fan list on one page: Paage. It's free to start, with a 9% fee on sales on the Free plan and 1% on Pro (minimum $0.50 per transaction, card processing on top). See plans and fees.
• You ran contests and want ad-pixel tracking in a platform built around release campaigns: Feature.fm, with paid plans from $8 a month and a free plan.
• You want to import your ToneDen export and keep a free smart link plan: Unsleeve, whose ToneDen import is included on every plan and covers your smart links, not ad campaigns or gates.

If you only need a bio link, compare more tools in our guide to the best link-in-bio platforms. And if this feels familiar, Tap Bio shut down in October the same way.
