Bringing the link-in-bio you already have onto Bink

You have a link-in-bio page somewhere else and you do not want to redo it by hand: paste the address, Bink reads what is there and rebuilds the page.

The real reason people do not switch

Almost nobody stays on a tool because it is the best: they stay because redoing twenty links, the social icons and the descriptions is an evening gone. It is a barrier made of tedium, not of features.

The import tool removes that evening: you paste the public address of your current page and get a preview already shaped like a Bink.

How it works

Bink opens the page you pointed it at and extracts what is publicly visible: title, description, profile image, links with their titles and recognised social profiles.

It knows the formats of the most common platforms, where the data is structured and reading is clean; for everything else it falls back to a generic read of the page metadata and links.

What happens to the preview

Before applying anything you see the result: which blocks will be created and in what order. You can drop what you do not need — there are usually a couple of old links not worth carrying over.

When you confirm, the blocks enter your page and from there you edit them like any other content: reorder, change icons, add descriptions.

What does not come across

Historical statistics, subscribers, past sales and payment settings stay where they are: no platform exposes that publicly, and no serious tool can promise it.

The theme is not copied either: you pick one of the thirteen available, or generate a palette from your website with the automatic theme.

Is it legitimate?

Yes, if the page is yours. That is exactly the tool's assumption: you are exercising your right to data portability under Article 20 GDPR, on content you could copy by hand.

There is no technical shortcut involved: only what is public gets read, the same thing anyone opening your link can see.

Frequently asked questions

Does importing delete my current page?

No. It reads the public page and nothing else: your source page stays intact and you can keep both live as long as you like.

Does it work with any platform?

With the most common ones the read is precise because the data is structured; with others a generic read of metadata and links is used. Either way you see the preview before applying.

Can I import more than once?

Yes, but each import adds blocks: better to tidy the page after the first one than to repeat the operation.

Do I need an account to try it?

You can generate the preview first and then save the result by creating your Bink.
