The reason teams switch
Beacons takes platform fees on tips, product sales, and bookings — even after you're paying $30+/mo for a Pro account. Creator revenue gets clipped twice (Stripe fees + Beacons fees).
The Beacons email list builder is feature-limited on lower tiers; growing past a few thousand contacts forces a plan upgrade just for email.
Beacons Plus is $10/mo, Pro $25/mo, Premium $90/mo. Each tier gates a different feature you actually need.
The flat-priced all-in-one replacement for Beacons. From Free / $69/mo. Free plan available.

Yes — free forever. Unlimited bio links, basic theme customization, click analytics, social icons, and tip jar are included on the free plan. No credit card, no time limit.
Beacons' free plan is functional, but takes a 9% platform fee on tips, products, and bookings — on top of Stripe's fee. Mewayz takes no platform fee on the free plan. For a creator earning $1000/mo from tips, that's $90/mo savings — versus $0 with Mewayz.
Beacons URLs are mewayz.bio/yourname-style hosted links — you can't directly transfer that URL. But Mewayz gives you mewayz.com/@yourhandle plus a custom domain option. Most creators announce the move with a pinned Instagram post and lose <5% of clicks during the transition.
Mewayz includes 30+ link-in-bio themes plus full color/font customization. The catalog is smaller than Beacons' 100+ presets, but core templates (creator, business, restaurant, podcast) are all covered with brand controls.
