How to Add a Link to Your Threads Bio

To add a link to your Threads bio, open Threads, tap your profile, choose Edit profile, select Link, paste the URL, and tap Done twice to save. Threads supports up to five profile links after its May 2025 update. If you see only one link field, you can still use it.

How do I add a link to my Threads bio?

1. Open the Threads app and tap your profile icon in the bottom-right corner.
2. Tap Edit profile.
3. Tap Link; it may display Add link if you have not added one.
4. Paste your URL.
5. Tap Done, then tap Done again on the Edit profile screen to save.
6. Open your saved profile and test the link.

These steps come from a FanBell hands-on editorial test conducted in August 2026. Meta’s public May 2025 announcement confirms profile-link support but does not document the exact taps in the editor. The test record did not retain the device model, operating system, app version, or account type, so button labels may not be identical in every interface.

Threads and Instagram appeared to store profile links separately during the same August 2026 editorial check: adding a URL in one profile editor did not add it automatically in the other. This is a limited hands-on observation rather than a documented Meta guarantee, so check both profiles after saving.

How many links can I add to Threads?

Threads supports up to five profile links under the update Meta announced on May 15, 2025 (Threads — @metanewsroom, verified August 2026). TechCrunch reported on May 15, 2025, that the same update added support for five links and insights showing how many visits each link received.

Meta’s announcement establishes five links as the Threads limit. During FanBell’s August 2026 editorial test, however, the available editor controls were not identical in every interface checked. That is a limited observation, not evidence that Meta assigns different official limits by account.

If you see only one link field, add the URL there, save it, and update the Threads app before checking again for the multi-link interface.

Instagram also supports up to five bio links, according to Instagram’s help documentation and TechCrunch’s April 2023 rollout report (verified August 2026). Threads and Instagram therefore each have a five-link cap, although their links are edited within their respective profile settings.

Does Threads let me label or reorder my links?

Meta’s May 15, 2025 announcement confirms support for up to five profile links and link-visit insights (Threads — @metanewsroom, verified August 2026), but it does not document a separate custom-label field or guarantee manual link reordering.

Use the controls available in your current profile editor, save the profile, and preview it to confirm the order and appearance of your links. If one destination matters most, make its purpose clear on the destination page so visitors can immediately identify the intended action.

What should I put in my Threads bio link?

Choose a destination that supports the specific action you want visitors to take. Options include:

• A page where followers can ask a question
• A booking page for shoutouts or creator services
• A tipping or support page
• A project-funding page
• A portfolio, newsletter, shop, or main website

For engagement or income, consider linking to a page with one clear next step instead of assuming visitors will navigate through a general homepage. This is a practical recommendation, not a guarantee of higher conversion.

Does Threads pay creators directly?

FanBell’s August 2026 editorial review did not identify a currently available Threads ad-revenue-share program, native tipping tool, or paid-subscription feature. This was a limited review of publicly available Threads product announcements and the profile and professional tools accessible during testing; it should not be read as a comprehensive statement about every Meta monetization product or private test.

Meta previously operated an invite-only Threads Bonus Program for select US creators during 2024, but Meta ended that program and has no open applications (verified August 2026). See does Threads pay creators for the full sourced breakdown.

Creators who do not have access to a native Threads payment feature can direct interested profile visitors to an external offer or support page through a bio link.

How can I optionally prepare a FanBell link?

FanBell is an optional external destination, not a requirement for adding or using a Threads profile link.

FanBell provides one page where followers can pay for a paid private question, personalized shoutout, small creator service, tip, or project support (how it works, verified August 2026).

FanBell has no follower minimum and is free to start with no monthly fee; a 12% platform fee applies only when a fan pays (pricing, verified August 2026). These are FanBell’s first-party product and pricing details.

You can paste the same FanBell URL into both your Threads and Instagram profile-link fields, but you should save and test it separately on each profile.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add a Threads link on desktop?

In a FanBell hands-on editorial test conducted in August 2026, threads.com offered this flow: open your profile, click Edit profile, select the Link field, paste the URL, and save.

The test record did not retain the browser version, operating system, or account type, and Meta’s public announcement does not document the desktop sequence. If the Link option does not appear on desktop, use the mobile app.

Can I add more than one link to my Threads bio?

Yes. Threads supports up to five profile links under Meta’s May 15, 2025 update (Threads — @metanewsroom, verified August 2026). Add them through Edit profile → Link. If you currently see only one field, add that URL and update the app before checking again.

Does my Threads link have to differ from my Instagram bio link?

No. You can use the same URL on both profiles. Because an August 2026 editorial test found that the links did not automatically copy between the two profile editors, paste, save, and test the URL separately in each app.

What is the best kind of link for a Threads bio?

The best link depends on your goal. Use a page with a clear next step, such as asking a question, booking a service, leaving a tip, joining a newsletter, or supporting a project. Preview the destination on mobile to ensure the intended action is obvious; no particular destination guarantees more conversions.
