The sidebar is your main way to navigate Bouncy. It gives you quick access to every feature from creating links to managing your account.
Sidebar Sections
The sidebar is divided into three main sections:
1. Control Panel
This is where you'll spend most of your time. It contains:
Your Links
Dashboard (Global) — shows aggregate analytics across all your links. Only visible on paid plans (Growth, Scaling, or Dominance).
Links — your main dashboard where all your deeplinks, app links, and websites are listed.
Create Tools These are grouped together in the sidebar with a visual separator:
Create Deeplink — open the deeplink creation form
Create App Link — create a link for a specific app
Create Website — launch the website builder
Domain Management
Custom Domains — view and manage connected domains. Shows a usage counter (e.g., "2/5") next to it.
Buy Domain — search for and purchase new domains directly through Bouncy.
Integrations
API — access the Bouncy API dashboard to generate keys and view logs.
Affiliate
Become an Affiliate — sign up for the affiliate program (shown if you're not yet an affiliate)
Affiliate Dashboard — view your referrals and earnings (shown if you're already an affiliate)
2. Account
Profile — edit your name, phone number, password, 2FA settings, and view your subscription
Team — create a team and invite members. Shows a "Scaling+" badge if you're on a plan that doesn't include team management.
Pricing — view available plans and upgrade/downgrade
Logout — sign out and return to the login page
3. Help
Onboarding Call — opens Calendly to book a free 30-minute call with the Bouncy team
Telegram Support — opens the Bouncy Telegram support channel
Guides — opens the Help Center (help.bouncy.ai)
Video Tutorial — opens in-app video walkthroughs
Usage Progress Bar
Below the create tools, you'll see a progress bar showing:
Usage: X/Y — total links created out of your plan's creation limit
Active: X/Y — currently active links out of your plan's active limit
On the free plan, this also shows an "Upgrade for more" prompt.
What You See Depends on Your Plan
Some sidebar items only appear based on your plan or role:
Item | Who Sees It |
Dashboard (Global) | Growth, Scaling, Dominance plans only |
Team | Everyone sees it, but free/Growth users see a "Scaling+" badge |
Admin Dashboard | Admin users only (internal) |
Affiliate Dashboard | Users enrolled in the affiliate program |
Become an Affiliate | Users NOT enrolled in the affiliate program |
Mobile
On mobile, the sidebar is hidden. Tap the hamburger icon (three horizontal lines) in the top-left corner to open it. Tap the dark overlay or any menu item to close it.
