Link-in-bio startup Linktree said on Wednesday that it has surpassed 50 million users. The figure represents a significant uptick from the 2.7 million users the company had in 2019. The company has been growing consistently, adding nearly 10 million users (or Linkers, as Linktree calls them) in the span of just five months: In December, the company told TechCrunch that it had 41 million users, and it reported over 47 million users this March. Linktree is considered one of the top link-in-bio tools on the market, with its rivals owning a significantly smaller portion of the pie: competitor Later has around 7 million users, whereas Beacons has over 2 million.“It’s astounding to see the scale we’ve reached by being Linker-first — now empowering more than 50 million Linkers with a space that they own, to grow and monetize,” Linktree’s co-founder and CEO, Alex Zaccaria, said in a statement to TechCrunch.The company said it is also launching the beta of its social commerce offering. The new program, which was in alpha back in March, lets creators add storefronts to their link-in-bio pages and take a 12% to 15% commission on sales. All users will be able to apply to join the program later this year.The experiment initially launched with a few brands (Revolve, Sephora, and Urban Outfitters) and was only available to a few creators. Starting today, Linktree is opening it up to more users and has added over 2,000 brands, including Adidas, Lululemon, New Balance and Net-a-Porter. Creators can access a huge product catalog featuring thousands of items that they can highlight on their storefronts.The company also added a new feature in tandem with the beta launch: Users can now upload user-generated content to promote relevant content from their social media accounts alongside recommended products
