ContactInBio vs Beacons

ContactInBio is a versatile link-in-bio platform that allows creators, businesses, and influencers to transform their single social media link into a powerful, multifunctional landing page.

Its standout feature is the sheer variety of content blocks it offers—users can add messaging app shortcuts, social integrations, video embeds, music services, contact forms, and even galleries.

This flexibility makes it especially useful for creators who want to showcase a portfolio, musicians promoting tracks, or small businesses offering quick access to their services.

The platform supports payments directly through the bio page, enabling entrepreneurs to sell products, accept donations, or collect booking fees without relying on external e-commerce platforms.

Beacons.ai stands out as a complete creator platform. It provides link‑in‑bio, a mini storefront, media kit builder, email marketing, and AI tools. Free and Creator tiers impose a ~9% transaction fee; Pro and VIP remove fees and branding.

Features include drag‑and‑drop design, custom domains, embedded media, digital product sales, lead capture, and integrations like Zapier, pixels, and AI tools.

While praised for its versatility, it has drawn criticism over billing transparency and customer support responsiveness.
