Linkdrop

Linkdrop is a customer acquisition platform for crypto companies, founded in 2019 and based in San Francisco. The company provides smart tools to distribute NFTs and tokens via claimable links and QR codes, enabling Web3 projects to increase product engagement and grow their user base.

Core Products

Linkdrop offers a comprehensive suite of token distribution tools designed to make onboarding users to Web3 seamless and gasless. Their flagship Linkdrop Dashboard enables bulk generation of claim links and QR codes for marketing campaigns, while the Linkdrop P2P SDK empowers developers to integrate custom token transfer flows directly into their applications. The platform specializes in Soulbound Tokens on Base blockchain, allowing projects to create non-transferable NFTs as onchain badges, event mementos, and proof of participation certificates.

Key Strengths

Linkdrop's technology eliminates friction in Web3 onboarding by enabling gasless claiming - recipients can claim tokens and NFTs without needing a crypto wallet or paying transaction fees upfront. The platform supports multiple distribution methods including claim links, printable QR sets, dispenser QR codes, and dynamic QR codes that update in real-time. Their Widget provides a customizable claiming experience that can be white-labeled to match brand aesthetics. The SDK offers flexibility for developers to implement creative distribution flows tailored to their specific use cases.

Notable Clients/Projects

Linkdrop is trusted by major players in the crypto ecosystem including Coinbase, Ledger, Zerion, Trust Wallet, Binance, and Opera. Notable implementations include the Ledger x RTFKT collaboration where NFTs are included with physical products, and Jesse Polak from Coinbase using Linkdrop to create memento NFTs for events. The platform has also been integrated into Base Colors NFT project for gifting functionality and Coinbase Wallet for seamless token transfers via text.

Why Choose Linkdrop

Linkdrop solves the cold-start problem in Web3 by making token distribution accessible to non-crypto users. Projects can deliver tokens to anyone, even those without a crypto wallet, through simple links or QR codes. The platform supports Ethereum Mainnet, Polygon, and can easily support any EVM-based chain on request. With options for gas sponsorship, wide wallet compatibility through WalletConnect, and both self-service dashboard and developer SDK, Linkdrop provides flexibility for campaigns of any scale - from small event giveaways to enterprise NFT marketing initiatives.
