Toggling a Deeplink Active/Inactive

Written by Bouncy Admin

You can enable or disable any deeplink without deleting it. Deactivating a link makes it stop working temporarily — you can reactivate it at any time.

How to Toggle a Link

On Mobile

Each link card on the Dashboard shows a toggle switch with an Active or Inactive label. Tap the toggle to switch between states.

On Desktop

  1. Click the gear/settings icon on the link

  2. The toggle option is available from the context menu or link actions

Bulk Toggle

  1. Click Select in the top-right corner of the Dashboard (desktop only)

  2. Check the boxes next to the links you want to toggle

  3. In the floating action bar at the bottom, click Toggle

  4. Choose Activate All or Deactivate All

What Happens When a Link Is Inactive

  • The link stops working — visitors who click it will not be redirected

  • The link remains in your account and on your Dashboard

  • It shows a red status indicator instead of green

  • Analytics data is preserved — you don't lose historical click data

  • The slug remains reserved — no one else can use it

What Happens When You Reactivate

  • The link starts working again immediately

  • Visitors are redirected as normal using the existing settings

  • New clicks are recorded in analytics

Active Link Limits

Each plan has a limit on how many links can be active at the same time:

Plan

Active Link Limit

Free

1

Growth

5

Scaling

20

Dominance

50–300 (based on tier)

If you've reached your active link limit, you'll need to deactivate one link before you can activate another (or upgrade your plan).

Custom Domain Links

Links using custom domains are always active and cannot be toggled to inactive. If you need to stop a custom domain link, you'll need to delete it.

Use deactivate when you might need the link again later. Use delete when you're sure you don't need it anymore.
