Features

URLiX combines short links, QR codes and practical abuse protection in a compact European setup.

Short links without unnecessary friction

URLiX creates short links without requiring an account. The workflow stays intentionally simple so that links can be created quickly and shared immediately.

Optional expiration dates can be added whenever a link should only stay active for a limited period.

QR code included

Each generated shortlink comes with an immediate QR code. This makes URLiX useful not only on websites, but also in print, on packaging, at events or in support workflows.

The QR code can be downloaded directly, so there is no need for a separate third-party QR generator.

Own infrastructure in Germany

We take our users’ privacy seriously. URLiX runs the website, public captcha checks, access statistics and the related script delivery on infrastructure operated by us in Germany.

This keeps the security and analytics workflow inside our own European setup and avoids external proxy, CDN or third-party analytics services.

Self-hosted statistics without analytics cookies

URLiX uses a self-hosted Matomo installation on servers in Germany to understand page views and the use of the service.

No external analytics provider is involved. The current tracking code disables Matomo cookies and respects the browser’s Do Not Track setting.

Technically necessary cookies of the website itself, such as the frontend language cookie or PHP session cookie, remain unaffected.
