Beacons score: 4.1 / 10
Rank 3 of 10. Every number here is calculated from the verified fields on this page using the weights published in our methodology. A field Beacons does not document scores zero.
- Measurement and retargeting · 30%
- 3.3 / 10 — Visitor analytics, analytics history and export, UTM handling, and Meta, TikTok and Google tracking. Weighted highest because measurement is what turns a bio page into an acquisition channel.
- Free-tier capability · 20%
- 1.4 / 10 — How much of the product is usable without paying: whether a free plan exists at all, and which capabilities the platform documents as included on it.
- Cost of entry · 15%
- 8.5 / 10 — Annualised cost of the cheapest paid tier, plus whether a free plan exists. One-time pricing is amortised over three years.
- Branding and page control · 15%
- 4.3 / 10 — Custom domain, platform branding removal, unlimited links, CSS and font control, video backgrounds, scheduling and password protection.
- Commerce · 10%
- 6.5 / 10 — Native storefront and checkout, digital products, courses, memberships, bookings, tips, and the platform's own cut of each sale.
- Technical and search visibility · 10%
- 3.0 / 10 — Server-rendered profile HTML, SEO and meta controls, a public API, and documented third-party integrations.

Corrections to this record
- 2026-09-18 · Monthly and annual price
Changed from “unverified — Beacons' own pricing pages render tier prices inconsistently” to “$10/month or $100/year (Creator); $30/month or $300/year (Creator Plus); $90/month or $900/year (Creator Max)”. The plan-comparison article in Beacons' help centre now states each tier's monthly and annual price, so the field moves from unverified to verified.
