What is a good Dub alternative?
directinapp is a Dub alternative for marketers and Indian D2C sellers. Like Dub it shortens links and reports clicks, but instead of a developer-first workflow it adds no-code conversion tracking: a pixel or a signed Razorpay/Stripe/Shopify webhook ties each sale in rupees to the link that drove it.
Why it matters
No-code, not developer-first
Dub is built around an API and a dev workflow. directinapp is set up from a dashboard: connect a signed webhook or paste a pixel, and conversion tracking works without writing code.
Tracks the sale, in rupees
Beyond clicks, a pixel or a Razorpay/Stripe/Shopify/WooCommerce webhook ties each order and its rupee value to the exact link and dia_clid click that earned it.
India-first, batteries included
Pricing and order values in rupees, plus deep links that open the native app, QR codes and a link-in-bio page free on every link. Conversion tracking sits on the Business tier.
Set it up
Three steps, no developer
01
Recreate your key links
Make directinapp short links for the campaigns you want to measure, pointing at the same destinations. You migrate at your own pace.
02
Add a webhook or the pixel
Connect a signed Razorpay/Stripe/Shopify/WooCommerce webhook to auto-capture orders, or paste the GET /c pixel on your thank-you page. No gateway keys or checkout code are touched.

Read revenue per link
Your dashboard shows clicks and the sales they produced in rupees, matched by the dia_clid click id, so you know which link paid for itself.
