linkboo is a link-in-bio and link-routing platform with structural support for compliance documentation, audit-log retention, and payment processor flexibility. This page describes how the platform applies to operators in the SARMs / research-compound retail category, including the operational features relevant to compliance reviews, processor transitions, and click-attribution.
platform overview
linkboo is a neutral infrastructure tool. The platform handles the link-routing layer between a social-platform profile and a downstream destination URL controlled by the operator. The platform does not host the operator's product catalog, transaction layer, or customer data; it routes the click and records the routing event.
The platform's primary technical feature is structural mitigation of the in-app browser logged-out problem documented across major social platforms. When a click originates inside a social-platform webview, the platform detects the webview from the user-agent string and routes the click out to the device's default browser (Safari on iOS, Chrome on Android) before the destination loads. The destination receives the visitor in their default browser context with the cookies and session state the destination expects.
audit logging
The platform retains structured audit logs of routing events. Logs are accessible via the operator's dashboard and via API. Each routing event records:
- The originating social platform, based on referrer headers and user-agent analysis
- The detected browser context (in-app webview type, or default-browser if not in a webview)
- The destination URL the click was routed to
- The timestamp of the routing event
- The geographic region (country-level)
- The escape-flow technique applied
- The user agent string
Log retention is configurable per workspace. The default retention is 13 months, which supports annual compliance review cycles. Longer retention is configurable on paid plans. Logs are exportable in CSV and JSON.
Operators in this category commonly use audit logs as part of compliance documentation packages provided to payment processors, banking partners, and counsel.
payment processor flexibility
The platform does not process payments and does not have a direct dependency on any specific payment processor. The destination URL routed to is configurable by the operator and can be changed at any time without disrupting the upstream linkboo URLs already placed in social bios, ad destinations, and external content.
Operators in this category commonly transition between merchant processors over time. Transitioning a destination URL inside linkboo is a single configuration change at the platform level; the linkboo URL stays the same, the destination it routes to is updated centrally. This avoids the operational cost of re-pasting new URLs across every social profile and external placement when processor changes occur.
attribution
The platform records click-source attribution per routing event. The operator's dashboard surfaces:
- Click volume per source platform
- Click volume per destination URL
- Click volume per link
- Detected-webview-share per source platform
The attribution layer is independent of the operator's destination-side analytics. The platform does not set or share cookies with the destination; destination-side analytics (Google Analytics, server-side logs, processor-side attribution) operate independently and are unaffected by the routing layer.
acceptable use
This page is intended for operators whose business model complies with applicable law and with the terms of the platforms they advertise on and route traffic to. The platform's acceptable use policy is the document of record for category-eligibility, content restrictions, payment-routing restrictions, and routing-destination restrictions.
The platform applies the acceptable use policy uniformly. The policy is not category-specific, not negotiated per operator, and applies identically across all signups.
signup
Signup is direct, no sales call, no underwriting interview at the platform level. The operator is responsible for ensuring their downstream destination, business model, and advertising comply with applicable law and with each social platform's terms.
Direct any policy questions to the acceptable use policy.
