Why teams switch

Why growth teams choose one unified platform

One usage model

Every Linkrunner link is dynamic and deferred by default, and the same link is the attribution primitive. Billing follows attributed installs instead of separate volume-credit, link, click, and partner limits.

Campaign intelligence with creative-level ROAS

See clicks through revenue, creative-level ROAS through Studio, multi-account consolidation, and revenue-signal postbacks to Meta and Google.

Transparent, published pricing

Pay per attributed install, postpaid, with no annual lock-in. Branch publishes self-serve plan prices, but each plan carries its own volume-credit and feature limits.

Built-in fraud protection and open data

Click-spam, bot, and device-farm detection is included at every tier, with unrestricted CSV, API, and webhook exports.

Cost calculator

What would Branch cost at your scale?

Branch's current self-serve pricing starts at $39 a month for Intro. Performance Basics is $499 a month with 100,000 volume credits, three ad partners, and export APIs. Because Branch credits and feature limits are not a direct install-rate comparison, model the plan against your links, clicks, partners, and overages.
