Dub alternative: rdyrct vs Dub
Dub is built for volume. Here is what that costs, and when it is more than you need.
The short answer
Dub's pricing page lists no free plan, and its plans start at $90 a month. rdyrct includes a custom domain from $4 a month. If you create thousands of links a month, Dub is built for that and we are not. If you create a few hundred, you are paying for volume you will not use.
