Smart Links

Create links that route players to the right store automatically.

A Smart Link is a single URL (e.g., link.gametrowel.com/your-game) that detects each visitor's device and operating system, then redirects them to the correct store page:

  • Windows users → Steam or Epic Games Store
  • macOS users → Steam, Epic, or Mac App Store
  • iOS users → App Store
  • Android users → Google Play Store
  • Linux users → Steam or itch.io
  • Console users — or anyone else → a fallback page showing all available platforms
  1. Go to Game → Smart Link
  2. Add your store URLs for each platform
  3. Set the fallback URL or landing page
  4. Your Smart Link is immediately active
TipSmart Links are perfect for social media bios, press kits, and printed materials like business cards — one link works for everyone.

QR Codes

Each Smart Link automatically generates a QR code that you can download in PNG or SVG format. Use it on physical materials, convention booths, or stream overlays.

UTM Tracking

Add UTM parameters to your Smart Link to track where clicks come from. Set source, medium, and campaign values — they're appended to the destination URL so your store analytics can attribute the traffic.

Analytics

The Smart Link dashboard shows:

  • Total clicks and unique visitors
  • Device breakdown — see which platforms your audience uses
  • Geographic distribution — clicks by country
  • Referrers — where traffic is coming from
